Russia steals U.S. military property (4 Hummers) that were set to be shipped back to The US after they had been used in training.
What is our government doing?
Are we going to allow that to happen?
Are we going to allow Russia to take our Military Property while we just sit back and watch?

do you really think our military is worried about 3 hummers? lol It's not the actual Hummers, but the slap in the face to The American Military. Perhaps you don't understand, but it's a "Pride" thing. It was a flagrant insult to America saying "we're taking your property...what are you going to do about it?" My girlfriend who is Russian/Georgian agrees with me...it's Russia's way of humiliating America to show that we won't do anything. You know what that reminds me of? It reminds me of how Osama Bin Laden destroyed The Twin Towers and got away with it. I guess, The Russians seeing how weak Bush is militarily thought the same when the stole our property and took them home. Bush ain't gonna do nothing...just like he didn't do anything about Osama Bin Laden. What was it that he said? That he didn't care about Osama? (and he accused others of exagerrating his comment denying he said it); |

We're weak. We got attacked on 9/11 and they got away with it. We got humilated by The Russians and they got away with it. We're being told to get out of Iraq by The Iraqi people now. Let's face it, we've been "soft" over the past two terms.  Americans used what happened to us in New York and in D.C. and in Pennsylvania to rally around the flag and to make a lot of boasts and threats. But nothing happened.  |

Our military got diverted into a new direction, Iraq. We should have kept our main focus on getting Bin Laden and his brothers, Al Qaeda. We had the world behind us and, IMO, had we struck hard on Al Qaeda, that would have sent a strong enough message to Saddam that we may have avoided that war.
