Quote from John_Wensink:
That's a pretty simple rationalization of things.
I realize the US is responsible for every bad thing in the world including aids, communism, global warming, athlete's foot, menstrual cramps and over cooked steak but just wait.
I think everyone is picking the wrong heroes here and Russia will be far far worse as a world power than the US is. I don't deny the US has done some very stupid things but think of a world dominated by China and Russia with the Islamic states as sattelites which they support unconditionally.
Maybe you can ask somebody from Darfur how wonderful things are with China giving pretty much unconditional support to Bashir.
