Today I read in one of our local newspapers, that President Puttin has ordered his special services to "obliterate" the insurgents that have killed 4 of Russia's diplomats.
How do you feel about Russia entering the Iraq conflict in this war?
Should they have entered earlier to support their allies?

I got negative karma for this because the US has the best military training in the world, apparently. WTF? By definition, that means Russians have worse training. Although, if it's going to come up, yes I believe that US has worse training than, say, Britain, which makes sense. Britain is a small nation and relies on a small, elite force, whereas the US is more concerned with numbers and technology. But sure, whatever........Bubbalo wrote:

Unless they're only sending their elite, I can't see how it can be a good thing. Last I heard Russian training is worse than American, and I'll bet that their ROE will be more lax as well.
Only, no. The Chinese and Russian Communists never got along very well, and after the death of Stalin this turned into a big divide between Russia and China. I think you'll find they aren't exactly best of buds now, either.bigp66 wrote:

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Russia hasn't really associated with Iran since the collapse of the USSR has it? If so, this is akin to arguing that the US and Iraq are allies (that is, the US and Saddam's Iraq were allies up until Saddam's defeat).bigp66 wrote:
