Default Russians alleges British of spying

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/4638136.stm

And in other news, Russian gas pipe lines get destroyed

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/europe/4637034.stm

Is the red storm rising??

Before anyone jumps on, i don't think it is but could make for interesting speculation

Pipeline explosion, I don't think that was the Russians.

The spying thing. Possibly, never stopped really, just someone screwed up, or got lucky, or there is a mole in UK Intel.

I agree with that.

They are no longer commies though. Gotta go to Pyongyang to find true commies.

Russia is an enemy for the west, it's been like that since WW2 and it is still so villified. And Russia is still being waged war upon it by the west, and the same war that it has been losing for years - the information war. Say anything bad about Russia (the gas pipe explosion) and people believe it. Anything good, or decent - and people think it's a lie. It's been like that for some time, and always will be probably till some huge global war that will not be an information one (russia usually can fight there pretty good, as opposed to PR). The fact that many people today already believe that it was the US that won the WW2 is perhaps the best example how russia lost this information war. Never mind the fact it lost half of all casualties (those are now dismissed as Stalin's own purges).



Are the brits spying? If I can put a bet on that, I'd put the house on it. Of course they are. Always have been. All I hope is that Russia is spying in UK as well, that's about the only way they can go about it really (another way you can do it, is spy on your own people, but let's leave that to the leader of the free world, the beloved by some here Bush!).

The gas pipe though - that's just hillareous - I'm totally amazed how the rest of the world is actually listening to what that large glovepuppet Saakashvili is saying (you should hear his interview to Reuters - you'd never think it's a country leader talking...)

Is Russian really an enemy to the west? I dont think so. Behind close doors CIA & KGB spys might of had a shoot out etc during the cold war., but russia has never been a threat. Just fear of the other. Whos the real threat today?
