Star Wars in Their Eyes

Submitted by Redrik Shukhart, Feb 16, 2007 07:13

What a clumsy propaganda!!! It is worse than commie`s Pravda!!!
Let me comment some points:

1. word "camarilla " -- commy also likes such abusing words

2. nuclear missiles and submarines capable of reducing the capitals of America and Western Europe to dust - - guys, are youy saying that american missiles are uncapable to destroy anithung? No?? So whay use have mentioned that only for russian missiles? Just to emphasize on potential danger from Russia? But it is obviously method of propaganda!

3. The former communist head of the KGB secret police - - you make all non-rednecks LOL :-))) Putin was not "communist head of the KGB secret police", he just has been working for some years in GDR as resident of KGB.

4. "Perhaps it was a self-fulfilling prophesy that the Russian response to the purely defensive SDI missiles has been to provide Americans and Europeans with all the evidence needed that the Russians cannot be trusted" - - ha-ha-ha )))) you have been catched on lying and now lubberly trying to justify yourself. Come on, everybody know that your anti-ICBM missiles are deploing against Russia, so you are lying to yourself. By the way, Russia sells to Iran "purely defensive anti-aircraft missiles", but the US are very furious about that. And the same situation, if you remember former Ukrainian president Kuchma - there also was a scandal that Ukraine has sold state-of-the-art radar station to Iraq. I can not imagine how anibody can use a radar station to invade elsewhere, but again the US was very furious about that. So why Russia should not be furious about anti-ICBM missiles? Guys, lets give up with hypocrisy.

5. As for the new arms race into which Russia is itching to enter - - I`m shoked. The US spends on arms race more than a few dozen of states which stay in rating below the US!!! And the US spends even more than in the coldest years of the Cold War! The US spends on army ~30 times more than Russia! What for? Just to build what german nazi called "Der Neu Ordnung" - global Empire, Pax Americana. Russia is brassed-off with army race, with imperial ambitions and so on, we just going to work hard and live better than before - that`s all. Please, do not engage us in some arms race again, stop threaten us.

6. The man who cracked the will of the communists, President Reagan - - aha, try to read the CIA`s reports before the USSR collapse - there is something like "there are no any evidence of collapse" and so on. "The victory have too many fathers; defeat is always orphan" ))) By the way, Bush and Gorbachov have sign the declaration that teh Cold War is stopped on Malta in 1989, two years before the collapse of the USSR, which have happened due to nationalism in soviet republics, crisis and degradation inside the soviet elite, due to inefficient economy, but not from competition with the US. I suppose it was not so importatnt factor.


7. President Reagan, was wise enough to understand that even with both sides disarming, it would be easy enough for the Russians to rearm - - unproved statement is basis of propaganda. Who have proved that? Why did he thought so? The US are more times economically stronger than Russia, so obviously it is clumsy propaganda again.

8. Which is why, despite some derision at the time from his European partners, he believed the West should continue defending itself with Star Wars. - - you see - I`m right, it is you who have started the arms race and the Cold War II again!!! Why do you refuse to defend with Russia, in cooperation with Russia?? We would like to be defended from terrorists too!

I am very-very dissapointed. In the early 90, I have been absolutely sure that the West is our frend, that after decades of confrontation we have returned into the world of free and equal in rights nations. But unfortunately I see that the West is going to continue the Cold War until Russia will be destroied at a number of failed states... Sad but true.
