That is why everyone is taking about this situation being the start of WWIII. Just keep an eye on it.

Q,
I agree that Russia was sending a public message. As I have talked about in some other threads, since that message Latin and South American countries are openly lining up against Bush/Cheney, as well as Pakistan and Iran. Even the Maliki government in Iraq seems currently emboldened to shake off the U.S. yoke. There is definetly a "taking of sides" happening.
