it's funny you said you don't appreciate generalizations...yet you say simply posting this article obviously implies he views putin as his 'fearless leader', then when you are repeatedly asked to dispute his claims you say he is a big arms dealer so we can't take his word for it, he just wants to have our spot...but isn't that admitting he is right? you are admitting we sell more weapons, so doesn't that make us even less trustworthy than putin? i thought our entire system was based on 'the lesser of 2 evils concept'? he says we destabilize the globe, that is thru arms exports, we are number 1 in this, so obviously what he says is true, right?standin above the crowd

yes, we've already been thru that...can you not respond to one of my replies on the last page and a half or so?
but for the record you most certainly left out any FACTS
what you gave me was
'Consequently, only fragmentary bits and pieces of information on the topic have ever been published, and most commonly only in the form of unconfirmed press reports by the non-Israeli press. Thus, the historical narrative offered here is sketchy and incomplete. Its main source for the period up to 1970 is Avner Cohen's book Israel and the Bomb, while for the more recent period, it is based on various non-Israeli reports and publications (all unconfirmed)'

So let me clarify...Are you still fuzzy on the subject of France building Israel's reactor? Or are you just generally fuzzy?0 -

i would LOVE for you to clarify!
how did anyone make putin seem as their 'fearless leader'?
can you actually dispute what was said?
if putin isn't credible for being number 2 or 3 when we're #1...wouldn't that make us even less credible than him?
or can you not make the leap in your line of reasoning that:
if being an arms dealer makes him bad and we're an even bigger arms dealer, actually the biggest, doesn't this make us worse?
why did you tell angelica she was 'taking a swipe at your country' and when she asked you how you reply 'don't ask me!'??? whom should we ask? who else would know why you said something? do you just say things for no reason?standin above the crowd

I regard Putin in pretty much the same light as Bush. Chechnya is Russia's equivalent of America's Iraq. Still, what he said about nuclear proliferation being encouraged by unilateral aggression in the face of international law can't be disputed.0 -

and he knows this and is why he comes up w/ these nonsensical, unrelated side arguments and saying things for no reason, apparently...standin above the crowd

I find it funny that a completely trashed country that has incited three times as many wars as America has can actually say that we are too aggressive with our foreign relations.
Anyways arms races are good for the economy....i think iran should have nukes, they wont use them, but it might help bring stability to the region.0 -

I'd feel conflicted arguing that an arms race is good for a region.. even if it stimulates economies.Come on pilgrim you know he loves you..

That and it might bring fear, though its not my preferred method of detering people it works.0 -

Russia has deep ties with Iran, not to mention major anti-Jewish sentiment throughout their country, so it should come as no surprise that Putin makes these remarks now that the Iran vs. U.S. rhetoric has been heating up over the recent months.
I can't believe some of you here actually fall for Putin's bullshit...and sit here and talk like you think Putin is ACTUALLY concerned about the "nuclear arms race", or "fear" that the U.S. is supposedly instilling across the globe. Whatever...if you're looking at Putin as some kind of voice of truth or reason, one only needs to take a close look at how he runs his own country to see what type of leader he is. If you can't see through his fake concern for the rest of the world, and this speech for what it is...political bullshit...then I don't know what to tell you.
Putin and Russia are to Iran, Syria and Egypt...what most of you think the U.S. is to Israel. For some reason though...Putin has it right according to some of you...
Of course some of you will just say that at least Putin doesn't go around "invading" countries like Iraq...but we've seen what they do to their own people who try to break away and form a sovereign government...and we all also know who they supply with weapons, money and intelligence. The very terrorists who are blowing up our troops on a daily basis.
Make no mistake, we're at war with Russia in Iraq as much as we're at war with Iran.
I agree with you, for the most part. Even though what Putin said does have a grain of truth to it, he is far from a model leader. I've said from the first verbal spars between Iran and the US started that this was not just the US vs. Iran. Russia and China have a lot of money and interests tied to Iran and I'm sure they will not sit by and let us invade/attack/levee sanctions against Iran."When one gets in bed with government, one must expect the diseases it spreads." - Ron Paul0 -

Russia is the world's primary nuclear proliferator. They gave birth to the Chineese Nuclear Program. The Chineese transfered their program to Pakistan, who then transfered their technology to North Korea and were caught trying to export it to Libya. Today, Russia is currently profiting from the Iranian program and was primarily responsible for building their Nuclear facilities. Conversely, the United States has not directly built anyone's Nuclear Programs. Israel got its reactor from France and so did Iraq. So Putin out to shut the hell up. Its a smokescreen. He's just fanning the Cold War flames to get more third world psychos to buy more Russian weapons.0 -
Putin is giving Ahmadnijad the tools to build Nuclear weapons and we're the one's who are dangerous???? Cmon now.0

Like I said there was a grain of truth to what he said. Not saying he was completely on the money. I think US foreign policy has, at times, played a negative role in world events. Obviously Russia is the 3rd worlds nuclear pimp, that is why I stated that Putin should be the one to talk. What this little exchange does show is that dealing with Iran will not be so easy because of their association with Russia and China."When one gets in bed with government, one must expect the diseases it spreads." - Ron Paul0 -

Last Exodus wrote:No argument. But he has some balls blaming us for the cause of nuclear proliferation. It seems the intimation is "The US is scary, so buy Russian nukes to protect yourself....."
That probabaly is his motive. Didn't Russia just provide Iran with new surface to air missle defense system. Putin is the worst thing to happen to Russia since Chernobyl."When one gets in bed with government, one must expect the diseases it spreads." - Ron Paul0
