It is a bit rich of Obama to lecture Russia about "returning to the old ways". Under previous SAL/STAR treaties, neither side was permitted to introduce anti-missile weaponry that would alter the agreed balance of nuclear weaponry. AMD aims to do exactly that, which is why George Bush was so keen to say "we don't need treaties" and dump the entire agreement in the bin. It is America that has been pushing to expand NATO's borders onto Russia's doorstep, sponsoring apparently democratic leaders in Ukraine and Georgia who now turn out to be nationalistic and despotic, clinging to power in the face of a complete lack of popular support. Yet, through most of this period, the USA have expected Russia to assist in areas such as diplomacy in Iran, overflights to replenish troops in Afghanistan and so on. Exactly what does Russia get out of all this?

JG what do we get - its quite simple really. We get the US solving the terrorist problem, that they created. They financed it, they trained it, they armed it, now they can play with the toy of their own creation. We did the grunt, when it came to the Nazis, now let them take the grunt, when it comes to their terrorists. We are quite happy to supply them, they did it for us in WW2. The terrorists they created, have gone well out of control, like all Pandoras boxes, when the lid comes off, something hits the fan. So leave them to it, we can support them well, via suitable contracts, they did and would do the same for us. The bonus is also that they are kept busy, idle hands make trouble, being busy is good for them, it keeps them spending cash, it keeps them suffering, it keeps them in the creation process with new enemies. There are a lot of benefits for us, let's support them with their efforts, in every way we can, let's even help expand those efforts if possible.

It is Israel who owns America. Israel is owned by the families of OLD EUROPE who have sent their offspring globally to own it all and rule with their idea of a one government of earth which IS chosen, clearly this tribe's entitlement to be the gods of the universe | earth -most especially! Now, those who run the state of Israel for the vampires who also did to Russia what has been done to all energy resources lusted for | after -- these 'evildoers' cannot be brought into the light until the beacon is shined into the correct positioning - like missiles. Good to bring credibility into the show, the greatest ever on earth --- however, history is not kind to any cannibalistic empire of the past, present or future and it is never a good thing ... "to be on the side of the executioners," as Camus did state. OBAMA? Offspring who sprung directly from the loins of terrorists are his 'handlers'? An undisputed fact pointed at it, and this forensic must be examined carefully, or else the peril is to BE LIE VE, in fantasies practiced by THE poly-addicted, or worse - be zombified by technologically rendering dead-brain from the new weapons of electro-magnetic frequencies (EMF). Brains are all we have to separate us from blubbering piles of protoplasm. EMF weaponry is not to be discounted as a conspiracy theory - be careful 'leaders' of Russia because brains working at this time are the greatest threat! Think about it, those who can still THINK with the idea of creative genius - a grave danger to those who have destroyed their lineages of sane for eons!! Pay attention to the symptom/s which EMF can cause and then, "bring it on," THE whole sordid truth about how leaders of the free world are not interested in any idea other than harvesting human energy for the gains of the few families who do not share a single healthy brain amongst them ALL, clearly. AND, this is not a USA exclusive, just look at the 'leaders' in Italy, France, Germany, the UK, EU, et al.

To answer Count Cash and JG, Russia got nothing out of that deal with America; as it happened to any other country which tried to do business with he USA. In a few days we shall see the greatest show on Earth and Russia will be foolled once more.This will be for the greedy capitalists, the consecration of what I have baptised, months ago the "Barnum-Obama-Circus. I always hope to be mistaken, but unfortunatly, so far, it does not look too good... Please, make sure that Mr Putin stay close to what seems to be an other machiavelic american comedian... Sorry Future Generations. Sincerely. Jean-Claude Meslin

The United States and Russia have a great lot to gain from each other, as friends, rather than enemies. The gains out way any much more and both Presidents realize this, now only trust and love have to be built into this relationship being a super power calls for responsibility ,one cannot isolate themselves from the rest of world. A safer world are extremely important. and that is what everybody wants. For this the strong must commit themselves U.S.A and Russia and convince their citizens not to hold hostilities against fellow men.

Obama's comment about Putin is correct. Putin still lives with the ghost of Stalin. It's time for Putin to live in the 21st Century. I have more trust in President Dmitry Medvedev than Prime Minister Putin. I guess we shall wait and see... Maybe they can settle some issues with a friendly game of basketball. Just a thought...

Putin and Medvedev are a fantastic strong team, we all know it, and thats why we vote for them in our droves. They have a fantastic synergy, Putin is absolutely the pressure kettle, put more pressure on him, and he gets better and better, stronger and stronger, he is the bears mind, when the bear needs to eat, we will eat! Through his sterwardship, he took us form a weak chaotic state, to a proud state again, he did it so wisely, and had the cuning to close his eyes and allow theft, whilst in other places he built Russia back, with fantastic focus. Then he opened his eyes fully and too kback the theft. He sacrificed some pawns to build a position, that's chess, that's Russia. Putin beat the financial US hands down. Medvedev, is the heart of the playful bear, he wants better things for us, he wants to develop along more and more civilised lines. A great team, the bear can eat and play! Putin is the man you need with you in a dark alley when the attack comes, Medvedev is the lawyer you need in the morning, if the court comes. So send us you puppet, and we will enjoy the performance front seat!

The Russia US relationship seems to go one way. Russia helped the US stop Britain supporting separatist governments in the South from annexing from the US during the Civil War and in return the US sheltered and financed Marxist terrorist and installed Communism in Russia. At the end of the Cold War Russia made agreement not to stop German states uniting and being part of NATO and dissolved the Warsaw pact in exchange for security guarantees not to expand NATO to its borders which it did and dismissed the ABM missile treaty pointing nuclear capable missiles at Russia. Since 91 the US and other countries have been sponsoring and supporting terrorism in Russia to bring the Caspian basin and oil and gas transit routes to EU under western control as well as turning Russia into an IMF colony controlled by a handful of western aligned Oligarchs who are all citizens of Israel as well as supporting anti Russian coloured revolutions in neighbouring states culminating in the proxy assault on Russia through Georgia last August. Russia creating and backing the anti-Taliban Northern Alliance coalition and gathering Intel on the camps gave the US the intelligence the gathered and the NA after 9/11 and in return the US shipped them of to the Panski Gorge in 2003 to fight Russia forces in the North Caucasus. Why should Russia trust the US Obamas staff members are all involved in supporting terrorism and the destruction of Yugoslavia during the 90s covertly training and arming anti-Serb forces while brokering peace agreements that they largely violated and Serbs for the most part honoured. So they can not be trusted

Johnx - excellent piece again. That is why I want the terrorist issue in the talks between Medvedev and Obama. Medvedev must get the US to stop finacing, training and supporting terrorism. They maust also get the US to put pressure on the UK to do the same. Otherwise there can be no moving forward. We know the current US tactic is destabilisation from the bottom, they are doing it in Russia, they are doing it in Iran. There can never be more trust, until these practices stop.
