Russia's Whining Again

Good God, it's like their children. First, they decide to make statements about us and the Iraq war on how what we're doing fosters terrorism. Then they create strategic alliances with other countries for the soul purpose of countering us. Then they sell nuclear reactors to known terrorist states. Then they want to hamper our efforts to get Iran to open up about their nuclear program. But then they start to whine because we offer eastern European allies access to our missile defense shield and they threaten to withdraw from a nuclear treaty we have with them??

Well that's what they say in public. In private, they say: "The US official said Russia had privately told the US it wanted medium-range missiles to counter Iranian threats while arguing publicly that the lack of Iranian missiles meant the US did not need a defense system."

So if they see Iran as a threat and need medium-range missiles, why are they continuing to sell them nuclear technology? It doesn't make sense. But if Russia is going to continue to act against our interests, then they need to man up when we work to protect those interests and our allies.
