I thought ObL is the most wanted bastard in US, so what US reaction could be in case if BBC post an article about ObL being a hero? I'm just curious.

We don't care about what the BBC says (and we care even less about the Russian media).

"Extremism in the defense of liberty is not a vice." -- Barry Goldwater, 1964 GOP Nomination acceptance speech (not George W. Bush 40 years later...)

I don't think so.
Just imagine some Euros or Russians posting articles like "Osama - the honorable freedom fighter is being murdered by US imeperialist pigs" or something like that.Comment

I can't see the Russians doing that. (The French maybe...)"And so, my fellow Americans: ask not what your country can do for you—ask what you can do for your country.

Last I checked, Maskhadov being a bastard didn't constitute proof that anyone else was any less of a bastard. Name one Chechen rebel leader that would've made a better partner for negotiations ...Originally posted by Serb
Sure, and the fact that he himself said he was involved in planning of both Nord Ost and Beslan, sure makes him a great negotiator and sure shows how unbiased and honest your media is.
Anyway, I blame the CIA. Just to be safe. Pass me tinfoil hat.Why can't you be a non-conformist just like everybody else?

Negotiations? With loosers? You must be sh!tting me. No negotiations with terrorists. Go talk with Osama or release Saddam and start to trade with him, if you like negotiations so much. In Russia we kill terrorists not fall into their demands.Last edited by Serb; March 10, 2005, 09:02.Comment

Comparing to Iraq, Chechnya is Goddamn safe place, and still I can't recall anyone agitating US to talk with Iraqi insurgents.Originally posted by Last Conformist

Because you like negotiations with terrorists and he is obviously a terrorist.Why should I talk with Usama?Comment

No.Domino
Russia already withdrew in the mid-90s from the area. The result was massive groundwork creation of terrorist cells in mainland Russia, which came and bit them in the butt later on.
The hasty comparisons you're making between the motives of Putin (trying to destroy terrorists) and motives of Johnson (trying to look good on history books, "I just can't be the architecht of surrender") just show of how little you know about the subject.Comment

You ****ing wish. Your armed forces really messed up in Chechnya big time.Originally posted by Serb
Comparing to Iraq, Chechnya is Goddamn safe place, and still I can't recall anyone agitating US to talk with Iraqi insurgents.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)Comment

Obviously your memory sucks, then. And assuming you're rigjt about Chechnya being safer than Iraq, well, the Americans being even bigger losers than you, while impressive, should be cold comfort.

Read my posts, hippie boy. I've not said anything about the desirability of negotiating with terrorists.
You appear, incidentally, to've forgot the little point that it's the Chechens attacking you, not Usama attacking me.Why can't you be a non-conformist just like everybody else?

Terrorists are attacking us. They have no nationality and only language they understand is the language of force.I've not said anything about the desirability of negotiating with terrorists.

No negotiations with them.Comment
