Pah!

You were the one making half-witted claims that CIA meddling was acceptable, even at the cost of American lives.

Foolishness. Good day...

isnt it though, that they used american made planes to kill americans! i mean thats hilarious! a real thigh slapper.

[spiritof1202]

The meddling was aiding the enemy of our enemy, not our enemy.

The cases are different.

Good day to you, too.

No, since the Americans didn't smuggle the aircraft into the US illegally.

[Gangerolf]

has it been confirmed who fired at them

[MRT144]

thats not where skyjack666 is deriving the irony. its the fact that is was russians getting killed by russian weapons. the fact that they may or may not have been smuggled is irrelevant.

[spiritof1202]

No... it's the fact that they were secretly smuggled into the country, that would have required the Russian diplomat's cooperation, thus the irony in their death.

[MRT144]

maybe, if we knew for sure they were smuggled. its still not something to gleefully make light of.

There is nothing funny about death...Period.

I wouldn't expect you to laugh at dead US Marines.
Or some Iraqi toddler with it's brains blown across a wall.

So let's not all devolve into hooting cretins everytime a death is announced, eh?

[spiritof1202]

I'll repeat, I wasn't amused by the death, but by the irony of the means of the death.

It really is a tragedy that the Russian diplomats got killed.

Really.

[spiritof1202]

and actually... they are reporting they weren't even killed... just injured.

[GePap]

You guys know, the funny thing is that the Russians say they were caught ina crossfire even though they had told the Coolition were they were going to be at the time, and at least in one place i looke,d they claimed some of the bullets were from M-16's, and the Russians have demanded of both the Iraqis and the US to not hurt Russians.

Maybe a bit less Ironic after all.

[Pekka]

not funny

Russians get blown to bits in Chechnya by their own weapons all the time.
