Anyone seen a Russian response to Bush's Yalta Conference comments?
It seems to me that the Russians would take a bit of an insult to Bush taking political digs at a time when they are celebrating the 60th anniversary of their victory over Nazi Germany. I mean, this victory is of no little matter to the Russians, it was war at its most hellish for four years on that eastern front.

1. remarks second guessing rude, divisive and boorish
also drawing parallels between WWII and Iraq, extremely offensive,
what he wants to say that somehow the US lost WWII, that did not
happen, he caused the war in Iraq with his preemptive strike, he is
trying to rewrite history to sully FDR's image so that he can continue his rape of social security for the global war machine.
No matter how many war cemeteries he uses as a photo op; 1600 U.S.
solders and 100,000 Iraqi have died for his whim.

2. You might want to check

the message boards at Pravda. They always have a WWII discussion going on.

Scratch that. I just checked and it seems that they have closed their boards. Bummer.

3. This Yalta business is wingnut code talk for sliming FDR. It is
aimed at the RW crazies here at home.
