Russia, Algeria: Weapons Negotiations

Discussion in 'Politics & Religion' started by commandos, Mar 29, 2007.

    Russia and Algeria are negotiating a $7 billion package of weapons contracts that could make Algeria Russia's largest foreign military trading partner, Kommersant reported March 29. Coupled with an $8 billion deal signed in 2006, the package would allow Algeria to surpass both India and China in military purchases from Russia through 2010. However, there are some indications the deal might not go through.

    In the world arena Russia does not behave like U.S.
    They are not trying to rule the world.
    Not interfering in other countries businesses.

    We all need to know that this admin is creating nothing but bad image to America. And the Russians are not the "devil" as they try to “portrait” them.

    Isn't it already? Algeria and AQ have an agreement to fight against France, I thought.

    Russia is a strange beast. Russia has its own islamic problem, in Chechnya. The chechen militants are hardline islamic people and blow up schools and attack Russia constantly, but Russia also plays in the same sandbox with similar groups. It's a very strange beast.

    Give them a chance please mate. :D

    They have only ruined Iraq and Afghanistan so far. We all know that Iran is next, to be followed by Syria.

    They won't touch N. Korea as it's a hot potato as they had the common sense to get nukes in to prevent being bullied.

    The only way that country's can prevent themselves from being bullied is to get nukes in, and for one country, like the US or the UK to say "you can't have nukes" when they have hundreds of them in my opinion is a load of bollocks.

    There is too much hypocrisy in the world these days. :mad:

    AGS i wouldn't sell you a knife to you even though i would sell anyone else one, it just wouldn't be responsible of me, what happens if you slit your wrists because the whole world is one big conspiracy. People might say "you knew he was unstable why didn't you prevent him from getting it":D

    lol you believe all the negative things the media tells you, I've been in Algeria for 12 years, it is not ruled by extremists. it has a government, and you are free to believe anything you want:D unlike when france was there and killed people for just believing other religions. You dream alot, what you posted above is a terrorist group in Algeria, they tried taking control of some parts of the country, some of them were caught. The media these days controls people's minds:D

    Did i say it was run by extremists? I simply said that the terrorist groups in algeria formed an alliance with AQ to fight france. You may have taken it to an extreme, but don't read into what I wrote :p
