Russia Friend or Foe? - Revisited - Part VII

"For when they shall say, Peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape." I Thessalonians 5:3

This post shows that Russia is not our friend but an enemy to the United States of America and is planning a future attack on this nation.

3. America's Enemies, Russia's Friends
While the United States continues to fight the war on terrorism, Russia is supplying many of these enemies with weapons of mass destruction. To prove that Russia is supplying many of the enemies of the United States, I will quote articles from news sources around the world.

d) An article titled "Russia Denies Building Nuclear Reactor In Syria"(Note 14) says

"A senior advisor to the Russian Minister of Atomic Energy dismissed as mistaken Wednesday the Russian foreign ministry announcement that Moscow was building a nuclear reactor in Syria......The Russian foreign ministry announcement, which appeared on its official Web site, said that the two nations had reached "basic agreement" on the construction of a reactor, adding that the cooperative effort was aimed at "peaceful needs"....... The Russian Tass news agency reported that Moscow and Damascus had already reached agreement on building the reactor, and that the subject was to be on the agenda for the vice president's Wednesday talks with Russian officials."

e) An article titled "Russia Sells Missiles To Sudan, Syria, Libya Among 7 Nations Designated By U.S. As State Sponsor of Terrorism"(Note 15) says

"The United States has determined that Russia continues to sell missiles and rocket-propelled grenades to such countries as Libya, Sudan and Syria. The State Department has identified a series of state-owned Russian companies as selling the weapons to the three Arab countries over the last two years. U.S. official said the Moscow government ignored repeated warnings to halt the sales of the conventional weapons.....Libya, Sudan and Syria are among the seven countries that the United States has designated as state sponsors of terrorism. The others on the State Department list are Cuba, Iran, Iraq and North Korea."

Notice all these 7 countries are friends with Russia today.

f) An article titled "Missiles Smuggled Into U.S."(Note 16) says

"The U.S. government has alerted airlines and law enforcement agencies that new intelligence indicates that Islamic terrorists have smuggled shoulder- fired anti-aircraft missiles into the United States. Classified intelligence reports circulated among top Bush administration policymakers during the past two weeks identified the missiles as Russian-made SA-7 surface-to-air missiles or U.S. -made Stinger anti-aircraft missiles obtained covertly in Afghanistan, said intelligence officials who spoke on the condition of anonymity."

g) An article titled “Iran, Russia, China to Hold Joint Wargames in
‘Message to the World’”(Note 17) says

“Iran, China, and Russia will hold in the coming weeks their first-ever joint war drills, which leaders say are meant to send a ‘message to the world’ about increased military cooperation between the rogue countries. The commander of Iran's navy, Rear Admiral Hossein Khanzadi, said Wednesday that the Islamic Republic will team up with Moscow and Beijing within the next month to hold the mass war drills. ’When we talk about joint wargames, we are talking about two or more countries with a high level of relations in various political, economic and social fields, which culminate in cooperation in the military sector, with wargames usually being the highest level of such cooperation,’ Khanzadi was quoted as saying in remarks to Iran's state-controlled press. ’A joint wargame between several countries, whether on land, at sea, or in the air, indicates a remarkable expansion of cooperation among them,’ the military leader said. The joint war drills will be aimed at sending a message to the world, particularly Western nations, like the United States, that have sought to constrain Iran's expanding military ambitions.”
