No, but if this were true, it would completely exonerate Bush for his lies. It's all too neat and tidy, if you ask me, but it would be nicewere it true.

If it's true, they weren't doing anything we wouldn't do in a similar situation. This is hardly a reason to go to war.

who cares, they have the a-bomb so it's unlikely anybody's going to war. unless russian radar mistakes a flock of birds for an american missile, launches a counter strike, then we hit back, then this happens

Hehe, I liked how Kerry's campaign changed from there were no weapons to we should have secured that weapons in an instant

a 3rd worldwar because of 300 tons of conventional explosives ? LOL :)

I could name you a few much more serious issues which could legitiamte (or so) a world war..but for sure not 300 tons of explosives...

Not saying you aren't correct, but how do you know this article isn't true?

Russians mistook some norwegen science experiment for a nuclear strike on moscow one time.... It was the closest to nuclear war the world has ever been (even closer then the cuba crisis).

Right.

It's not like WE don't sell arms all over the world.

And Russia's military industrial complex (and Russia in general) is in a lot more trouble money wise than ours. Why shouldn't they be able to sell to whomever they want like we do?

I believe I saw it on the history channel. The thing split apart just like a mutliwarhead missle too.

He is waging a campaign based on change......the problem is it changes every morning depending upon which way the winds of the polls and opinion are blowing as he has no real beliefs and knows full well he can't deliver on most of his promises anyway since they are outside his scope of control. If you believe this moron then you are just as uninformed as he is banking on.
