It seems the US, Russia, and India all have a common enemy in Osama bin Laden, but the US continues to give Russia and India the finger and will not cooperate with them to get the rich Saudi terrorist. Typical American foreign policy. Seems we'd rather side with crazy Islamics than rational democracies.

This has been my arguement for quite some time now... The US and the West are real quick to 'condemn' Russia's actions in Chechnya but we forget who the Chechens really are...

KLA rebels train in terrorist camps
By Jerry Seper
THE WASHINGTON TIMES

Some members of the Kosovo Liberation Army, which has financed its war effort through the sale of heroin, were trained in terrorist camps run by international fugitive Osama bin Laden -- who is wanted in the 1998 bombing of two U.S. embassies in Africa that killed 224 persons, including 12 Americans.

The KLA members, embraced by the Clinton administration in NATO's 41-day bombing campaign to bring Yugoslav President Slobodan Milosevic to the bargaining table, were trained in secret camps in Afghanistan, Bosnia-Herzegovina and elsewhere, according to newly obtained intelligence reports.

I hate to say this...

but who really cares about chechnya?

It's obvious that we should just bribe both sides to cut it out. Seriously, it's working the middle east, we give billions to everyone and they all shut up.

A nice arrangement if I do say so myself. More cost effective than feeding on sides war machine and making enemies with the other.

Of course, americans don't care about the war in Chechnya, since they can't do much anyway. I think the russians have a different perspective of things. The war in Chechnya is important, especially for the future career of Putin. And of course, noone would want the chain reaction that would follow if Chechnya broke free.
