Russia Again Steps Down

A la' Keith Olbermann's Countdown, yet more evidence that Russia is the Worst Country in the Wooooooorld. The U.S. and Britain have not been sterling actors on the international stage these past years, and deserve criticism. But Russia's stance that it will stop cooperating with the fight against international terrorism if a murder suspect, one that they may well have asked to commit the murder in question, is the height of irresponsible national egotism. We should fear Russia as much if not more than Iran and North Korea for the long-term.
