Disagreement is not the same thing as hostility.

The United States is restoring full diplomatic relations with Libya and removing the North African country from its list of state sponsors of terrorism after 27 years, the State Department announced Monday.

I was thinking about Iraq and criticism of Bush. Though hostile is much too strong a word to describe them. I will take the beating.

After careful review, Mills Lane has decided that Libya is, in fact, not a correct answer.



(This would've been a correct answer in 2005 or earlier.)

Now, if Libya isn't correct, can Russia be?

I'd say no to Russia too. They are borderline. Any hostility they currently have is due to the Bush plan placing nukes in Eastern Europe.

Russia is correct. Why else would we be keeping an eye on them?

I'd say hostility is caused by Putin and his determination to be the superpower in the region, but regardless, I don't think there is any more hostility there than from China or other big players like that

As far as we know we still have nukes pointed at them as they have them pointed at us.

Russia is probably our biggest threat and maybe even our biggest enemy.

Isn't that their right and obligation to their people?

Unique Answers: Amazing Grace & Chuck (Rockmjd23), Bullworth (Funkpie), Jeremy517 (Clear and Present Danger), Dick (wishbone), Escape from NY (wmansir), First Kid (arminius), The American President (Pharoh), Thirteen Days (missflores)

I really thought my answer was going to be good.

Amazing Grace & Chuck is the name of the movie. Gregory Peck played the US President.
