They really are gutless.
This kumbaya bullshit is going to get people killed.
(CNS News) – Hours after Russia’s top general threatened pre-emptive strikes on proposed NATO missile defense facilities in Europe, the State Department said Thursday the U.S. would “redouble our efforts to seek common ground” with Moscow over the deepening dispute.
At an international conference in Moscow focusing on missile defense, attended by senior U.S. officials, Russian Chief of General Staff Nikolai Makarov said that “a decision to use destructive force pre-emptively will be taken if the situation worsens.”
In response to questions about Makarov’s threat, State Department spokesman Mark Toner said, “I think we’re just going to redouble our efforts to seek common ground on this and to seek understanding.”
