Bush warns Europe of Islamic alliance
Warns EU. You just gotta love this. PNAC's second to last letter dated 2004 was also another "warning" to Europe over their ties with Russia. ((Letter of 100 on Democracy in Russia, September 28, 2004))

Bush warns Europe of Islamic alliance

Roy Eccleston, Washington correspondent
February 19, 2005

GEORGE W. Bush is calling on Europe to join the US in increasing pressure on Syria and Iran to reform, as the two Middle Eastern nations tout a new strategic Islamic alliance against US and Israeli "plots".

With Tehran's alleged nuclear ambitions the new flashpoint in the volatile region, Mr Bush also warned that the US would support Israel in any military action against Iran.

At a press conference ahead of his visit to Europe next week, the US President promised to work with European leaders to produce a strategy to prevent Tehran developing a nuclear bomb.

(snip)

Asked if he was worried about the prospect of an Israeli pre-emptive strike on Iran to prevent it acquiring a nuclear weapon, Mr Bush avoided the question but expressed sympathy and support for Israel's concerns.

"If I was the leader of Israel, and I listened to some of the statements by the Iranian ayatollahs that regarded my security of my country, I'd be concerned about Iran having a nuclear weapon as well," he said. He added that the US "will support Israel if their security is threatened".

2. Just when you think you've read it all.....
along comes an article that simply outdoes the last one.

Let's see if I got this straight....Bush is warning Europe not to be too friendly with Russia.....and to watch out for Iran. In exchange for the favor, Bush is going to bring his unholy self over there next week, to do some arm-twisting, threatening, cajoling, waving dollar bills in their faces, and in general bribing and threatening his European allies.

Methinks the man doth sweat. His dear ally Putin is the cause.

7. Well... Now that you mention it.
Yes, I for one am a little concerned, that * has his finger on the button for countless nukes.

Alltho' Finland is probably not on the target list, Russia is. And I live some 250 miles from St. Petersburg which is abundantly targeted... Fallout anyone?

So, yes. It supremely sucks that a gang of madmen are holding their finger on MY fate.
