There is no doubt in my mind that the weapons industry will be very glad for any kind of deal to create more weapons. Of course if you're going to have more weapons then you are going to need more customers to buy them. And of course if there are no wars then there are probably no need for weapons.We need our troops at home guarding our borders and not out fighting some war which will make some weapons industry executive filthy rich......

And we are thinking about more killing machines? Shame! Shame on this administration so one dimensional , so old fashion, so dangerous for the world. Enough is enough. Let's put a stop on this madness. Impeach this GOV. it is not good for US. It is not good for the world.
God bless America.

Today, at the G-8 summit, Vladimir Putin turned the table on Bush by being the one to propose both sides cool down the rhetoric and agree to work togther towards a mutally beneficial solution and do all possible to avoid another cold war. Putin proved himself to be the better diplomat by handing Bush a "get out this mess free card."
Nice going to both men, Bush and Putin.
To the member commenting about Bosnia: Clinton was masterful in his handling of that crisis: not one American life was lost and today Bosnia is turning into a unified country at peace within its borders. Great job, Bill.

I believe that your suggestion that this might be for economic reasons may be partly true.
We have had the plans and capabilities of setting up a defensive missile shield since Reagan.
We can't use it in Our own country. Why not? Congress made it against the law.
So if we can't protect ourselves, we might as well protect our international friends and allies. And if we make a few bucks, well what's wrong with that.

I notably much evaluate myself on the "front strains" of this concern. My place of living here in Prague faces Wenceslas sq., and that that they had an illustration against the interceptor missile device final week. i hit upon it without end ironic that maximum of individuals here oppose the country in charge for liberating them from the Evil Empire. they are actually protesting in want of their former slave masters. What the hell is this, the Stockholm Syndrome? Russia's opposition to any missile protection preserve is ridiculous. we've shown back and back in our history that we are actually not the enemies of Russia. while the U.S. exchange into the only capacity in the international with nukes, we ought to have laid down the regulation to the completed international: "The U.S. by no capacity intends to apply nukes ever back. The nuclear decision ends now. If any u . s . ever develops nukes, we can immediately nuke their capital city." on reflection, we could continually have carried out that. we ought to have ended nuclear proliferation with certainly one of those "The Day The Earth Stood nonetheless" state of affairs. each physique downplays the tip of the chilly conflict. If it have been america that could not shop p.c.. with Russia, they could have issued us thinly-veiled words of renounce. We quite prolonged the hand of friendship. We even lent them funds to facilitate their conversion to a capitalist device. Russia is familiar with we've not got any ill intentions in direction of them. yet they must huff and puff to cajole themselves they are nonetheless a substantial capacity interior the international. via the way, it took me continually to point this, yet your theory is superb. i ask your self whether Putin's government has considered it. i think of it may be super to place some interceptor missles there, and doubtless it's going to be the commencing up of Russia starting to be an eventual member of NATO. there is not any reason anymore why they are able to't "enter the fold". those days, this is Western Civilization against Islama Fascism besides. we could continually unite.

Did we have questions like this when Clinton wanted to go to war in Bosnia and TAKE THE WRONG SIDE in a war we have no business in anyway?
