Rossikk: What about the millions of innocents slaughtered by America in Iraq and Afghanistan to mention a few?
of course. But the america's don't go around publishing op-eds in bagdad and kabul newspapers justifying their actions. Barack obama has even been on record that the iraq war was a "DUMB" war....meanwhile the guy who killed hundreds in georgia. Imprisson journalists and political opponents. Oppress chenynians, murder vladimir kichko.etc..is not lecturing america about how all then are equal and you subscribe to him. Sickening.

The same way they backed America in Iraq and Afghanistan? grin grin


ASUU, please call off this useless strike action.
how come i didi'nt see this stupid post. France resisted the iraq war because they did'nt support it. But do you know that france has the third largest number of trooops in afganistan? Plonker.

Russia is just saving just saving itself before things get out of their hand. The u.s has evidence that the syrian government used chemical weapons. The french. The brits all have evidence. Even human rights watch. Now we are hearing that the UN inspectors report that will come out next week will conclude that the assad regime used the chemical weapons because the rebels who do not whoes most sorphisticated bomber is a mortar do not have the ability to launch such strike.

Russia rushed with the chemical weapons surrender deal and the the syrians follow immediately because they know what will happen if all the reports turn at them. They will loose support in the world and when the u.s bomb syria. Russia won't do shit. They know all this that is why their first condition for syria handing over the chemical weapons is that america must dismiss striking syria. And america has not and will never make such a pledge, and yet russia is still going ahead with the deal. Lavrov and kerry are already meeting...does'nt that show you how desperate putin is. He should enjoy his few minutes of fame because when the U.N he always love quoting come up with their report and point finger at his beloved dictator. Assad. All the prestige will start melting away.

shymexx: You definitely hit your head on a brick as a kid. The more I correct you, the more you come back with retar.ded retorts!

Is France now NATO? And what military assets did the French provide during the Libyan intervention apart from a few dassault rafales, special forces and a few warships for blockade? Even tiny Sweden/Denmark provided almost the same military assets as France during the Libyan intervention and it took NATO more than 6 months to fight little Libya with no air defense and poor military. Heck, Sarkozy was already bored of the war before Gadaffi was killed and he was asking for negotiations.

The Americans provided most of NATO's assets and the UK did more heavy bombing than the french. Heck, the UK did fire more than a dozen tomahawk cruise missiles from its submarines. Even the Germans who didn't participate directly arguably did more than the French because they provided the intelligence that killed gadaffi.
you keep talking rubbish and i keep giving facts. France has more nuclear weapons than the u.k, france has the third largest airforce in the world behind the u.s and russia. France has the only aircraft carrier in western europe. And you are telling me that france combined with the most powerfull nation on earth can't humble the russians? You're either insane or in denial.
Foreign AffairsRe: Vladimir Putin's Letter To America On The Syria Crisis by Symphony007: 1:12am On Sep 13, 2013
shymexx: Blah blah blah.

Perhaps, someone needs to explain the difference between fighting RPGs and AK47s carrying rag-headed militants in Mali and fighting a country where tons on countries and groups have vested interests.

The French will never regain their reputation having surrendered during world war 2, and subsequently getting disgraced out of Egypt during the Suez crisis by Russia. Tell them to shut it!! When the dons are talking - the French need to take the back-seat and listen! undecided

Didn't the Vietcong also chased the French out of Vietnam? - classic french and always running like kangaroos!
cheesycheesycheesy...that's the best you've got? Invoking world war 2? Was libya's gadaffi a rag head that the french bombarded? Only three countries have sorphisticated aircraft carriers and that's the u.s(11), russia(1) and france(1). So what are you saying? Even bush asked for french help in iraq, they refused but aggreed to afganistan. Please. Speak about what you know.

shymexx: Lmao @ France. And you want me to take you seriously after citing France, no?

You mean the same France that would surrender after one week? - you're definitely a joker!!

We're talking about countries that can bite in the EU, not the delusional french neo-liberal president.

Go to bed, mate! undecided
i'm so loving this arguemet because as it goes futhur. Your ignorance becomes more glaring.

You are talking of france who has the 5th largest military on earth, the country that has the third largest stockpile of nuclear weapons on earth, the country that bombed libya? The country that rid northern mali of toureg rebels in weeks, the country that ended the ivory coast civil war and arrested gbagbo in weeks? The country that subdued algerian independence...wow! I can go on forever. You want to define the 5th most powerfull country in the world by their surrendering in world war 2 over 60 years ago? How pathetic.

the russians are not stupid enought to engage the u.s in a war, no matter how depleted you think they are. Russia will NEVER.

REALITY101: Assshole yes I am a US citizen your empty brain should have known I wasn't talking about Nigeria when I mentioned second amendment.

Syria is not a threat the America. We have history with this few countries you mentioned. Obama is an asss "this is not personal but he is an asss" you want to bomb Syria because Assad used chemical weapon which killed hundreds of Syrian citizens? What happens when he bombs Syria?

slowpoke quit watching junk from CNN from whichever village you are. How you asked yourself why almost 99% of Americans don't support your food stamp president on attracting Syria?

"Oh his is a muslim political christian"I wouldn't give a damn if he is supporting his fellow terrorist with his own money..

As the old saying goes, The only thing worse than a politician is a child molester.

Osama Bin Laden was one of those "freedom fighters" we were arming.
i won't decend into the pig stine with you and start calling names so i' just make my points.

Syria is a threat to america's closest ally in the middle east isreal. If syria can use chemical weapons on his people then he can surely use them on isreal. Secondly, syria is a close ally of iran, america's greatest foreign threat who is currently working on a nuclear bomb. If syria uses chemical weapons and america does nothing. You expect iran to take the u.s serious when it says they must not have nuclear weapons? Sensible people will know that the u.s military is not going to start bombing damascus surbubs. They are going after ships, planes and other vehicles assad use to spread his terror. Assad's forces should know better than stand by. He they do, they will get a taste of their own medicine.

The main reason american's don't support u.s strikes in syria because they are tired of 10 years of wars in iraq and afganistan that george w. Bush put them into. That has killed their soildeirs and drained their economy.

I won't go into your childish christain-muslim conspirarcy theories. I get enough from folks like glenn beck and rush limbaugh in the VILLAGE i'm from.
Foreign AffairsRe: Vladimir Putin's Letter To America On The Syria Crisis by Symphony007: 12:30am On Sep 13, 2013
shymexx: Where's NATO without EU? Have you been following the news? The EU already said it wants no part of the Syrian war!

Anyway, NATO knows not to mess with Russia. Ever heard about SCO (Shanghai Cooperation Organization)?

And Russian and Chinese companies won most of the oil blocks in Iraq after the war - the yanks also lost out in that.

If McCain didn't chat shyte and apologise, I honestly don't know what he did. Perhaps you need to hit google to get your answer. undecided
the E.U wants no part in syria but france is america's biggest backer in military strike, so who is the EU speaking for? Do you watch news at all?

The EU can speak for countries like belgium and romania who don't have a single machine gun but france has pledged it's full backing. Plus the british have pledged intelligence support since parliament voted against military involvement.

Mr. I hiy google and there was nothing like mccain apologising to puttin. Maybe you can put up a link for me.
Foreign AffairsRe: Vladimir Putin's Letter To America On The Syria Crisis by Symphony007: 12:21am On Sep 13, 2013
sammirano: Many are clueless of the country that holds the largest stockpile of Nukes! who else Russia, and many don't know of 'MAD' the US wouldn't want to mess with the Russians.
correction kiddo, the united states has the largest and most modern stock pile of nuclear weapons and russia will never think of nuclear war. Futhermore, america will humble them in conventional war. Russia has one aircraft carrier, the u.s has eleven. Infact the u.s defence budget is larger than russia, u.k, france and turkey combined. Can you beat that?
Foreign AffairsRe: Vladimir Putin's Letter To America On The Syria Crisis by Symphony007: 12:17am On Sep 13, 2013
shymexx: @the bolded - don't you think the Georgians deserved what the got? Heck, Putin was nice to them, he definitely could have captured the whole Georgia if wanted to.

Bush and NATO pushed the Georgians to test if Russia could still bite but what they got in return from the Russian reservists was swift and devastating. They destroyed the Georgian navy within 24 hours and all I saw was the Georgian soldiers running when when they saw the Russians. grin

Then NATO had to get the French president and Germany to beg Putin. That's more reason why you shouldn't trouble the sleeping giant. wink
you are happy detailing how the russians murdered tons of georgians. Whatever is reason is, those who support the u.s will give the same for iraq and afganistan. So what gave the idiot. Putin the right to say america is a nation that rely on brut force? What he did in georgia was mild force? Call out lies when you see them....rubbish!
Foreign AffairsRe: Vladimir Putin's Letter To America On The Syria Crisis by Symphony007: 12:12am On Sep 13, 2013
REALITY101: Think about this for a second....CIA is supplying weapons to the al qaeda backed rebels by direct orders from Barrack Hussein Obama to overthrow a "tyrannical" gov.. While at the same time, working very hard to strip us of our second amendment rights. Shows you where their priorities are.. I can only conclude that Obama is freakin' INSANE!

Why Obama is so eager to go to war?
what stupid second amendment right? Are you a u.s citizen? Just come here to spew hogwash. Why is obama is in rush to go to war? Did you ask this question when george w. Bush attacked iraq and afganistan. Why don't you ask republicans like john mccain why he was campaigning for u.s involvement about a year ago? Barack obama's temprament is what has kept america out of this crisi so far.
Foreign AffairsRe: Vladimir Putin's Letter To America On The Syria Crisis by Symphony007: 12:01am On Sep 13, 2013
shymexx: Bollocks!

What's the Russian interest in Iraq and Saddam? Russia had its own problems back then and Iraq was the last thing on their mind. If they couldn't do anything during the Kosovo war - what makes you think they would have done anything in Iraq?

You mean the same McCain that chatted shyte to Putin and had to publicly apologise afterwards when Putin said being a POW must have messed up his (McCain's) brain? You're definitely a joker!
you made no single point in your post. What can russia do if the u.s attacks syria? Can russia fight a war against nato? And by the way john mccain has never apologised to vladimir putin for anything. Even calling him a criminal when he granted edward snowden asslylum.

You don't know russia's interest in iraq? You don't know how many russian oil firms have been working in iraq since the soviet era? How many were deposed for companies like halliburton when america came in? Dude. Who is the real joker here?

And yes, the united states of america is exceptional because when blacks are starred at in russia like aliens and thrown banana's in italy, the united states has a black man as president. Is that is not exceptionalism?

shymexx: How are they sissies? They double-dared the yanks and NATO 2weeks ago like they have been doing for the past 2 years - why didn't the almighty yank and its dogs attack Syria? That alone should tell you who the pus.sy is!!

Putin saw a window of opportunity to help Obama save-face and he's just trying to be diplomatic. Even after he wrote this letter - he announced that Russia would be selling the s300 missiles to Iran, after cancelling it based on the agreement he had with US and Israel. So who's the pus.sy?
if the united states attacks syria, russia will do nothing! Sadaam taught russia will help them when the u.s attacked iraq. Did they come? Russia cannot stand a war without nuclear weapons with the united states and NATO. And mind you, the u.s is a member of nato and when one nato member is attacked, you attack all. Russia will be humbled. Their only ally, china. Will not help them because china will never do anything to slow down their economuc boom. Obam is not a warhawk that is why he is so reluctant to act. If john mccain was u.s president. This syrian war will be over and assad will be either dead or arrested and russia won't do shit.

highmood: Beautiful and well spoken. Force should not be use on everything. Countries should learn to exist through the part of dialogue rather than ability and superiority in terms of international relations. The Russian government have able to think this out and took bold step to speak directly to the U.S. I hope d U.S will listen because without Russia, I don't think any other country would be able to speak to the hearing of the Unites State.
why was'nt puttin diplomatic with georgia when he bombarded that nation to the point they are still feeling the reparcautions? Stop rubber stanping hypocrisy. The u.s does it. Russia does it. So russia has no right to take a moral highground. It's pathetic and foolish of mr putin.

The man who bombarded georgia and continue to oppress the chenchnyns is taking about america using brutt force. It takes a lot of brass for this stupid man is put together such an indictment of himself and direct it at another.

Mr putin. All men are equal? Does that inculde the gay men and women you are jailing in russia? Does that include all the journalist you have killed in your prisons? This is the most idiotic and hypicritical article i have ever read. Putin is just feeling high recently because the attention he is getting now is something he has'nt seen in a while, that's why he has the guts to mock obama with this and insult the u.s people to their faces. But i assure him that the moment he is not able to deliver assad's chemical weapons to the world. All that grandure will melt away and he will return to the inconsequential tyrant that he is. Idiotic dictator.
Christianity EtcPope Accepts 20-year-old Car Gift From Italian Priest by Symphony007(op): 10:15am On Sep 12, 2013
An Italian priest has given Pope Francis a 20-year-old white Renault 4 to drive himself around Vatican city.

The car - which has 300,000 km (190,000 miles) on the clock - was presented to the Pope by Father Renzo Zocca at the weekend. The pontiff later drove it.

Known for his humble lifestyle, Francis said he used to drive the same car in his native Argentina.

In a bid to encourage austerity in the Church, the Pope has urged officials to avoid using expensive limousines.

Father Zocca said he was moved by the Pope's effort to create "a Church for the poor", and told the Italian magazine Famiglia Cristiana that he wanted to give him a gift.

"What better than my old Renault 4?" he asked.

Father Zocca said he was surprised to receive a phone call from the pontiff accepting the gift.

The priest turned up at his Vatican residence on Saturday to present the car.

The BBC's David Willey in Rome says the Pope's bodyguards were amazed when he took the keys and drove off.
