Straffo,

It's http://www.nysun.com front page.

You have to register to read it.  I'm not sure a web translator thing will work, given their java-heavy website construction.

I mean nothing personal to you in my attacks on the French government, but this constant, mindless, arrogant opposition to the U.S. just to show that France is willing to stand up to the "hyperpower" is "INSUPPORTABLE!"

The old Arab saying "the enemy of my friend is my enemy" makes sense.  The converse applies too.

Also: "the mother-in-law of my enemy's cousin's friend's sheep is the friend of my uncle's goat's enemy fleas."

And who will forget:

"GOD IS ROASTING THEIR STOMACHS IN HELL AS WE SPEAK!"

As some of the Anti-US Government camp are fond of saying.....We're not Anti-French or against the French people, we against the French Government.

I mean, why can't that be used in reverse?

I can be called an "anti-Russian government" myself. But there is some difference.

I bet you don't care and don't even know about the problems in Russia that worry me.

Now some questions: I still didn't understand who are that "tree stooges", I don't know French. Why are Putin and Chirac pulling Schroeder's ears? He has a birthday? German is in the middle, why French is at the right and Russian at the left?... :rolleyes:

We are enemies with the US? Should we really send some military assistance to the next target for the agression?... So far the only action that was considered "hostile" by American government was the attempt to stop American chicken meat import because it doesn't comply with our sanitary standards. US Department of State was furious about it and threatened to ban Russian steel and other exports to the US.

:rolleyes:

I outgrew Jerry Lewis by the time I was 11 or 12. I'll never outgrow Moe, Larry, and Curly. All time kings of slapstick.

I'm not positive, but I think they considered spying for Saddam and selling him arms hostile too.

Some looney from your "free press" already said that they evacuated Saddam in a Russian diplomatic convoy...

I'll tell you more: he was brought to Kremlin already, and now lives under a Tzar-bell, I saw him yesterday, talked a while, he must be really an evil dictator because he refused to drink vodka with us... As if I never drank vodka with Moslims!

Martlet, do you believe everything they say? Are you sure that McDonalds food is so good for your health as they say?

The word from the intelligence community is that the U.S. strafing of the Russian convoy was intentional.

But the new KGB boys forgot to get the copies of the documents in the Iraqi intelligence ministry though.  Speed kills.

How embarassing.  This would never have happened under Uncle Joe Stalin.

Failed states can be so amusing.

Russian Foreign Ministry already said the strafing (yeah! the right word! Didn't know how to translate "obstrel") was unintentional, but they want people responsible for it to be punished.

To Martlet: you can say thay there were reports that Saddam now lives under Tzar Bell in Kremlin, until they prepare a place for him in Lenin's mausoleum.

I tell ya. Am I not a reliable source? At least I live in Moscow and have an access to Tzar Bell in Kremlin, while the "reports" you quoted were written by people who have never been to Iraq or Moscow.

Should sound like this: "Numerous sources from Moscow that have direct access to Kremlin reported..." and so on. Sorry, why do I have to teach you, you know better how this things should sound.
