Moscow has agreed to open its airspace for US military supplies to Afghanistan on the condition that Russia will inspect the transit cargo. The deal was announced during Obama’s Moscow visit.










Ah yes, our troubled campaign in Afghanistan. We must give thanks to the Russians for their crucial role in helping us defeat a boil on society. I have family members fighting in that theater, and the only "trouble" they report to me is that there are not enough targets. Russia get over yourself! You had your chance to beat these guys and you blew it.This is nothing but payback to a group that deserves to be wiped out like insects. In retrospect, most Americans agree that arming and then forgetting about the factions in Afghanistan was a very bad idea. Bare in mind that back then we were enemies, but I would like to think that we are smarter than that now. We have the same interests, we simply want the world to calm down so that we can get back to making money. Is that such a bad thing for our two great countries?
