I love this revisionism, just because they don't hop in line behind the USA all the time, just because they back out of one war, they must be weak. It's not that the USA failed to convince them that they had enough to gain from fighting in Iraq, no no, its because they were, and apparently always have been, too afraid to fight a war.

Anyone who has been paying attention knows it is because Saddam was their ally. Russia is no different. They picked a side, thought we were bluffing, we weren't...

I agree completely with this Administration’s goal of a regime change in Iraq-John Kerry
even if that enforcement is mostly at the hands of the United States, a right we retain even if the Security Council fails to act-John Kerry
He may even miscalculate and slide these weapons off to terrorist groups to invite them to be a surrogate to use them against the United States. It’s the miscalculation that poses the greatest threat-John Kerry
