I wonder if the Russians....

[Bigmack]

are gonna supply some nifty weapons for the Taliban to use on the US.... or have they already.

I figure they could ship some helicopter-killing missiles thru Iran or one of the 'Stans.

Of course, they'd be afraid the Chechens might get ahold of them, but they might figure it's worth the risk.

I wonder what's the Russian version of "Payback is a motherfucker!"

We can only hope they don't.

1. Could be wrong but I don't see it nt

[JonQ]

2. Why would they?

the cold war is over, they have nothing to gain by earning our ire.

[Bigmack]

4. As I said... payback is a mutha. Think of Putin. nt

[JonQ]

10. Fun on a personal level

but not a good official policy.

[roamer65]

3. Nah, they're selling them to Iran.

Why give them away when you can get $$$ for them?

[Arctic Dave]

5. It's possible. Russia wouldn't mind a weakened US. I would think china would do it too.

When you're on top, you become the target.

8. not to mention that we're softening up the Taliban so they can operate there

. . . and exploit the resources with impunity and without the same costs as the U.S. in lives and money

[Captain Hilts]

6. They don't like them any more than we do. For the same reasons PLUS the Taliban wants to ignite

militant Islam within Russia and the FSU.

[unkachuck]

7. nah....

....Obama and Clinton say the Russkies are our new found buds....and I always believe what the warmacht says....

[Golden Raisin]

9. They're probably just

snickering behind our backs watching us repeat their mistake of getting fatally & futilely bogged down in the quagmire of Afghanistan. They had to depart with their tails between their legs and so will we.
