I don't really think the Russians are our enemies--at least not in this
context. Remember that school in Russia that got shot up, with all of
those little kids murdered? The Islamic radicals who attacked that
school are the cut from the same cloth as ones who attached the WTC and
who are now bombing the London subways. They want to destroy Russian
influence in Chechnya just like the want to destroy American influence
in Iraq and Saudi Arabia. These radicals hate the West. They don't care
whether it's America, Russia...you name it.
