USA: Russia denies role as Snowden
vanishes: Edward Snowden’s stop-and-start flight across the globe
appeared to have stalled in Moscow on Monday as Russia reacted angrily to
“unacceptable” pressure from the US to have the National Security Agency leaker
extradited.
Russia Won't Stop Snowden, Putin Says
Russia Won't Stop Snowden, Putin Says
The US sought help on Monday from both adversaries and uneasy allies in an effort to catch fugitive National Security Agency leaker Edward Snowden, as Moscow slammed attempts by Washington to have the whistleblower extradited. Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov said on Tuesday that Moscow had no role in Snowden’s efforts to evade USprosecution and that he had not exited the airport transit area into Russian territory.
I have to laugh at our political
idiots saying they are going to put pressure on Putin not to be harboring or
aiding in the hiding of Snowden. They have not learned a god damn thing from the
ambaressment we put Putin and Russia through in his first term or the fact that
he stole a second Presidency to be at the helm during the ending of U.S.
Hegemony. I mean look at the damn facts.
Remember when Putin was rallying
and uniting the world to take on Bush and his drive to dominate the world?
Absolutely as the world's mayhem ensues amidst its drive to dominate as we move
through the 21st century is Putin's only agenda. It is an old thought. I
remember when term limits made him have to leave last time. There was immediate
speculation as to him taking back the Presidency.
This is another sobering shock. Putin's party has been intimidating and gaming the system for years in his effort to get his fascist hands on Russia again. This is proof positive of Russians' increasing suspicions of Putin's authoritarianism, ingrained corruption and falling living standards. Putin is not to be trusted and Russians have felt his grubby little hands around their necks for 12 years as he intimidates and tries to control Russia's future for his party.
Be scared be very scared! The USSR's Mikhail Gorbachev has warned that Russia risks six lost years when Vladimir Putin returns to the presidency, echoing rumblings of dissent over his Kremlin comeback. I always find myself agreeing with Gorbachev but that is putting it mildly. This is bad news for the US and the world!
This is very concerning. I remember back in 2008 when Putin was going to try and be President for life. He was not alone. Leaders aligned with Russia were all trying to get permanent leadership so they could be at the helm of their prospective countries to take on then President Bush when his war mongering hit the point where Russia, the 135 non aligned Nations, Iran, and others were prepared to join forces and take him and our allies on.
I remember when Bush first met Putin and he said he shook his hand and looked him in the eye and saw a man of compassion, a man who was true to his word, and a man he could work with. I shuttered at Bush's stupidity. I looked at Putin and saw a man deceitful to the core who was not to be trusted period.
We were too pompous then and were pushing the world towards WW3 with our take it or leave it, my way or the highway, interference around the world. Putin was determined to head us off, to directly confront us when we were on Russia's front door trying to instigate war by installing the so called missile shield in Czechoslovakia and Poland, and return Russia to the role of a world leader.
Personally we blew it when Russia broke up and the Berlin wall came down. We were the world leader and had the perfect opportunity to be humble, show we were the leader, and bring the world together to proceed successfully through the 21st century.We egged on the likes of Vladimir Putin who understandably chaffed under our we are the boss do what we say take it or leave it, it your face tactics of Bush and Cheney.
With the return of Putin to the Russian Presidency I am again concerned as we have returned to a confrontational relationship with Russia.Under Putin we have a re-surging Russia who is suppressing his people and Democracy. His goal hopefully with the aid of China and Iran is to put an end to US hegemony. I do not like the man, I do not trust the man, and I am very concerned as to which direction Russia and the United States are headed now and at a time when China is surging militarily.
We must maintain a balance as we try to move progressively and successfully through the 21st century! Being in a superior position puts one in a unique position of power and that power must be handled gracefully, with humility, responsibly, and not abused. That is something I taught all my sons and America under Bush did a lousy job of handling it and so it China and Russia.
Watching what is happening in Syria and Iran at this point it looks like Russia and China are going to unite to take on the United States and our allies and that bodes ill for the prospect of future war or the well being of us the world and the planet.
We need Russia on our side. I am a little worried that China too is getting a little too heavy handed and abusive with her new position of power and beginning to take what she wants instead of being content with what she has which is what I constantly lecture has to be the case if we are to have a future. The time when man and the planet could handle war is over, period or else! Be very concerned for our future!
