Russia vs US ?

FPF - PERISCOPE-ITEM, FOUR YOUR INFORMATION :
Bush calls 'too late' : The Russians never left that battlefield. New York Times : "Bush Calls Putin to Protest Sales of Russian Equipment"* Too late :
The Russians never left that oily battlefield.
WASHINGTON, Tuesday, March 24 — "The White House said today that Russian companies were supplying Iraq with sophisticated military equipment for use against the United States, and that President Bush had pressed President Vladimir V. Putin during a phone call this morning to crack down on them
immediately."
But that urgent call is definitely too little and too late since the Russians do not want to lose control of the area. And they never really left that battlefield out of sight; they're back more than ever apparently. It concerns $ Billions.
According to an Afghani FPF-source, with 23 years of war experience in his own war torn country : "the Russians have been back for more than a year, and give us all the help we want". His 60+ family in the area confirms this information on the phone, during the many conversations from Afghanistan.
The "Coalition-Peacekeepers" based in Afghanistan can only move freely in Kabul : the rest of the country is "of limits". But totally open to the same warlords the CIA hired and trained earlier. The warlords are apparently now giving the Russian transports the same service as the CIA received : they'll bring anything across any border, including Iraq's, as long as it is well
paid.
When asked, this Afghan war veteran confirmed that 'humanitarian help' of course does include arms. Also according to him "Russia is doing to the U.S.A. in Afghanistan - and on a smaller scale in Iraq - what the U.S. Govt. and the NSA/CIA also did; the latter secretly assisted the Afghan and Iraqi guerilla warfare against Iran and the Sovjet-Union in Afghanistan.
The warlords and millions of angry Iraqis, backed by Russia and neighboring muslim countries, will force the US Army and Govt. to give up on controlling
Iraq, within fifty days from now it is thought. The guerillawar will never be over, it is understood.
Quote NYT : "Russia, like France and a number of other countries that opposed Mr. Bush's decision to go to war, has a long history of business ties to Iraq. There has been considerable speculation in the United States and Europe about which nations will have the best shot at profiting from any reconstruction, oil exploration and production and other business opportunities in Iraq after the war."
"The CIA, ever mindful of the need to justify its “mission,” had conclusive evidence by the mid-1980s of the deepening crisis of infrastructure within the Soviet Union. The CIA, as its deputy director Robert Gates - given that context, has in Congress confirmed that a decision was made to provide America’s potential enemies like bin Laden and Saddam Hussein with the arms, money - and most importantly - the knowledge of how to run a war of attrition violent and well organized enough to humble a superpower.
That decision is coming home to roost."
