Tit For Tat-Russias Incursion

[Gary Graefen]

Watching President Bush scream about how countries should not invade democratic nations made me laugh. We have invaded and occupied two nations. 100s of thousands have died, either directly or indirectly by our hand. We have justified our actions based on the threat of terrorism. Yet the enemy has no known face. We have propagated an imperialist momentum unlike any other in our past 100 year history. Yet when Russia does the same thing we cry foul. Never mind that Georgia attacked first. Georgia is a democratically government. This is hypocrisy of the highest order. If it's my war it is ok-if it's yours, you are a barbarian. When will our nation get a grip? I fear that before to long the events in motion will bring us all to a cataclysmic end. We need sensible leadership and very soon.
