Reply #23: That Doesn't Make Sense [View All]

The fact that Wes Clark had a dispute with the Russians over tactics during the Kosovo operation is going to poison American-Russian relations while Bush's scrapping of the ABM treaty and the invasion of Iraq, one of Russia's major trading partners didn't is silly....


Same thing for the bombing of the Chinese embassy... They were working off a bad map, many levels below Clark in the chain of command when they mistakenly bombed the embassy... I doubt the Chinese will hold it against us...

The Chinese and the Russians will support us when it's in their interest and oppose us when it's not... The goal of policy makers is to increase the former and reduce the latter....

P.S. I don't have the animus for Joe Lieberman on this board that many DUers have but I will say he is one of the worst candidates ,stylistically, I have ever seen... He lost a debate to that automaton , Dick Cheney, for chrissakes...
