The fact is that Americans were sent to Russia that have not been returned.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Our inaction created the opportunity for the Russians to reenter the Middle East in a powerful way for the first time since 1973.
If it hadn't been for the Cold War, neither Russia nor America would have been sending people into space.
What Americans can't face is that one of the reasons that the Russians and the Chinese were so impressed with us during the Cold War was the fact that Nixon and Kissinger went on bombing despite public reaction.
The way I understand it, the Russians are sort of a combination of evil and incompetence... sort of like the Post Office with tanks.
We live in a dangerous world, and Russia has not complied with existing treaties.
The opportunities that Gorbachev created for international relations have also been missed, perhaps even lost - here, however, primarily because of the United States.
From being a patriotic myth, the Russian people have become an awful reality.
Everybody has forgotten that Russia helped start the Second World War.
The Russians are a very sentimental people.
The United States can tell you all about what's wrong with the British, to say nothing of the Russians.
