It seems that the stance against terrorist has ben very selectively applied. Of course, we Americans ond't complain when president Bush says that our military will eliminate terrorists anywhere in the world but it causes a big problem when Russia says the same thing. Chechans are never referred to as terrorists but more as seperatists or freedom fighters even though there is certainly plenty of nastiness on bothy sides of that conflict.
Why did our main ally, Great Britan, give asylum to Akhmed Zakayev when we expect others to hand over Al Queda operatives?
There seems to be a current theme that Russia is a bad guy and that Islamic radicals attacking them are ok but the Al Queda attacking us are bad, even though Bin Laden constantly mentions the jihad in Chechnya? I would hope that we would take the opportunity to build bridges with Russia and work towards our common interests instead of citicizing them when they have plenty of their blood spilt by terrorists on their soil but our govt and media dont seem to be interested in that.
