The Russian military says the U.S. has already decided to attack Iraq in February, and that the goal of the campaign will be to secure Iraqi oil fields. Why is this not front page news? |

Write to the major networks and demand coverage of this story, which comes from Reuters, so it is obvious that they are aware of it. |

My guess is that an unnamed Russian military official isn't taken as seriously here in America as an unnamed American military official. That and the major media outlets don't want to do anything "unpatriotic" like tell the truth :-P |
