Russians Support Iraqi Resistance; Want U.S. to Lose
Forty-one percent of respondents interviewed in a recent poll said they support the Iraqi opposition rather than the U.S.-led coalition troops that toppled the regime of Saddam Hussein. Only 7 percent said they support the U.S. troops, according to the poll conducted by the Levada Analytical Center in Russia, Interfax reported.

At the same time, 43 percent said they were “on neither side” of the conflict. 1600 Russians were interviewed for the study.

1. Payback for Afghanistan
which was our payback for Vietnam to them, but created Osama bin Laden and led to 9/11.

2. not surprising
When Saddam was captured I received an email from a friend in Moscow saying "Is it true that the U.S. caught Saddam Hussein? If so, what a pity."

3. I'm going to Russia in a few weeks.
I'm interested, and a little nervous, to see how I'll be viewed being American during times like these.
