How does Bush know what Russia will or will not do?? Is this a dare? For some people this would be fighting words...don't tell me what I an NOT going to do. Is this another example of Bush not thinking before he speaks? What is your opinion of this remark???
Bush Says Russia Won't Attack Europe
HEILIGENDAMM, Germany (AP) - President Bush on Wednesday discounted Vladimir Putin's threat to re-target missiles on Europe, saying "Russia is not going to attack Europe."
Bush, in an interview with the Associated Press and other reporters, said that no U.S. military response was required after Putin warned that Russia would take steps in response to a U.S. missile shield that would be deployed in Poland and the Czech Republic.
"Russia is not an enemy," Bush said, sitting in a sun-drenched garden. "There needs to be no military response because we're not at war with Russia. Russia is not a threat."
Bush and Putin will meet Wednesday at the opening of the summit of industrialized nations. Asked if he anticipated a tense encounter, Bush replied "Could be. I don't think so ... I'll work to see that it's not a tense meeting."

Well starting with a disclaimer, this is my opinion. But well bush is a moron. He has once agains screwed up in our countries foreign policies. Hes haeading us straight back into a cold war with russia. Prolly cause he hasnt picked enough fights for one term. Not to mention allienated enough of our allies. Im looking forward to the end of his time as our president. The man has a knack fro screwing up anytime he opens his mouth. Sometimes while watching his interviews if you listen real close you can here his speech writers smacking themselves in the forhead when he goes off script.

Ok here's what's going on.
Bush is planning to put a missile defense system in Poland and other east European countries. he says it's to protect America from missiles coming in from Iran and other Asian countries. The question one needs to ask is why isn't he putting that missile shield in Turkey or Jordan or Israel or Egypt. those countries are closer to Iran/Iraq and in better position to destroy any attack that comes from there.
The idea is to provoke russia because it's russian defense systems that are also targeted by the missile shield. this will create further need to "invest" in more defense shields and further on as Russia increases it's fire power. Finally the only winner will be the makers of those systems and the politicians that get paid of by them.
And who would ever think bush has any foresight, he's been pretty " right" about all things like WMD's, spreading democracy, stopping terrorists etc etc.

The Missile defense was going to be implemented for North Korea, not Iran/Iraq, that is why it needs to be able to cover Asia, to protect our allies from Kim Jong Il.

Russia isn't a threat, Putin might talk big, but he knows he won't do anything.

In plain words, Bush is an idiot and has no brains. He never thinks before he talks. He never listens to his people. He doesn't know Jack.

I see it as a rehash of the cold war, Russia can't and won't do anything drastic, but they have to make adaquate noise so that they get some news time. Everybody is just bust playing double dare and it is really very stupid. Communism is trying to make a comeback and they are using this incident as a springboard.

This is my opinion. bush is getting worse. he is having a lot of mistakes. the war in iraq, the WMD, and so on. he is acting like he is going to rule the world. Here are lines from a Black Sabbath Song: War pigs which describes the situation best:
"politicians hide themselves away,
they always started the war,
why should they go out to fight,
they leave the role to the poor"

Bush & his big mouth again. This rtime his staement was superficial. Of course, the US are not at war with Russia, or an enemy. What a silly thing to say.
Did you know that Bush's IQ is only above average? That is good for many us, but for the leader of the US, & suppoedly of the free world, I think we need a person of superior intellect.

A person with a superior intellect what a novel idea. I have been in the Sates now for almost 30 years , since 07/17/77, and I have never known a president to be so stupid and ridiculed by his own people. What makes it worse he never seems to learn from his unthinking remarks.

I think it is VLAD PUTIN' who's off the wall.He is the one who made the threat.How could anyone in their right mind condemn a DEFENSE system .A system designed to knock down missiles.Seems to me only someone who is planning on attacking someone else should be concerned .VLAD PUTIN is just blowing smoke,It's called rhetoric.RUSSIA has no reason to create an enemy of the U.S. .
I am quite sure this is to prevent any silly moves that IRAN may have against IRAQ.We also need to keep an eye on N.KOREA .
