[tuvor]

MOSCOW (AFP) - Russia is prepared to make pre-emptive strikes on "terrorist bases" anywhere in the world, the Interfax news agency cited the country's chief of staff as saying.

"With regard to preventive strikes on terrorist bases, we will take any action to eliminate terrorist bases in any region of the world. But this does not mean we will carry out nuclear strikes," General Yuri Baluyevsky said Wednesday.

Baluyevsky added that Russia's choice of action "will be determined by the concrete situation where ever it may be in the world.

"Military action is the last resort in the fight agaisnt terrorism."

1. Consequences never occur to them.

WHAT did their mothers drink during pregnancy, and WHEN did they drink it?

3. This COULD just be Putin playing w/Shrubbie's Head, ya know?

1) You KNOW the Chimp is NOT going to like the idea of someone ELSE sticking his nose into "where it don't belong". Terra is Georgie-boys racket, and he don't like sharing his toys at ALL.
2) Putin is gonna know this.
3) This announcement puts Shrubbie is a SERIOUS 'spot'. How is he going to react?

(Alternatively, what if these terra-ist guys aren't really who they say they are, but rather, are an 'al qaeda' faction thats under the control of an NWO/PNAC/Trilateral Commission? In fact, what if, like, the 9/11 guys, the turkey bombers, and the madrid bombers, are ACTUALLY under the control of this shady NWO cabal, who are tied into pnac by the osama/afghan-russian war/cia/bush I/saudi connection? What about THAT, huh? And what if Putin knows this?)

Okay, nevermind all that. But I still think Vlad's fuck*ng with Chimpy's head by coming out and saying this. And the CIA might even have talked him into doing it. I think the CIA are gonna bring the chimp down for selling them out on 9/11, the Iraq War, etc.

And this seems exactly like something they'd do just to watch him SQUIRM. Does he WELCOME the 'help' in the 'fight against terra', or does Cheney inform his that the PNAC doctrine calls for NOT ALLOWING anyone into the terra racket, let alone as a 'leader' whose actually fighting for THEIR country's safety!

This is gonna be FUN to watch!!!

4. I have a bad feeling about this

"In the schoolyard, a group of older women began raising their voices in fury at the terrorists, who they believed came from the mainly Muslim republics of Chechnya and Ingushetia near North Ossetia, the mainly Christian republic in which Beslan lies.
" 'Tell the world on our behalf that we want this entire nation, the Chechen and the Ingush, to be destroyed, right down to the ground,' said Lida Khodova, 55, whose cheeks were bleeding because she had scratched them as she mourned her daughter-in-law, killed in the siege. 'We need to exterminate them like rats.' "

:eyes:

There's not much left of either to be destroyed, so she may see her sick dream come true in her lifetime. The Ossetians burned almost every minority-Ingush out of their republic a decade ago in state-sanctioned pogroms, now they still want to go after them. The Ossets were mainly left out of Stalin's genocidal deportations that killed half of the Ingush & Chechen nations and sent the rest in total exile. Before that, spared the Tsars' wrath because they held the empire's bags in the mass slaughter of their neighbors.

Not even before the bodies were cold, any random Ingushes unfortunate enough to be nearby were kidnapped and beaten by hysterical mobs just within the last few days. That will just get worse, because racist divisions keep the state strong and skinheads busy.
