Good to have you on board, comrade.

Russia is prepared to make pre-emptive strikes on “terrorist bases” anywhere in the world, the Interfax news agency cited the country’s chief of staff as saying.

“Pre-emptive”? Gosh, that sounds familiar. I know I’ve heard that term recently.

“With regard to preventive strikes on terrorist bases, we will take any action to eliminate terrorist bases in any region of the world. But this does not mean we will carry out nuclear strikes,” General Yuri Baluyevsky said Wednesday.

That, of course, is how the War on Terror needs to be fought, because that’s how the terrorists fight it; on the offense, not the defense.

Baluyevsky added that Russia’s choice of action “will be determined by the concrete situation where ever it may be in the world.

Notably, he didn’t say, “will be determined by the United Nations”.

“Military action is the last resort in the fight agaisnt [sic] terrorism.”

Well, I’d beg to differ there. The fight against terrorism is a military action. Again, that’s how they will fight it. Negotiations do not work.
