Think

by Volker Weber

REUTERS reports:

Secretary of State Colin Powell said on Tuesday he was concerned that sweeping political changes to fight terrorism proposed by Russian President Vladimir Putin would erode Russia's democratic reforms.

I would be more concerned about the policital changes at home.

Introspection is not a quality often found in the US government.

Soon Russia and America will be fighting each other over who can have first 'preventive' strikes on 'terrorist' countries (who'll also contain oil / uranium / whatever is attractive for their respective countries to maintain their internal balance).

I know, I know, I'm being cynical, but that's sometimes a survival trait !

I don't think you are being cynical Alex. That's exactly the reason why the US (and allies) should never have attacked Iraq without the UN approval: it gives other countries a justification to do the same with their perpetual enemies.

As an American, I agree completely.
