Not judging by the lack of stars your posts have and your severely degraded argumentative capacity, which revolves around childish "sexual jokes" aimed at me.

I love the way you dodged almost every point of mine that was too hard for you refute:
- Such as the EU leveraging economical sanctions over state who refuse to join NATO.
- And the fact that NATO is just another Cold War remnant with the same Imperialistic ambitions as Russia's CIS-bloc.
-And America's role in destabilising the economies of Eastern Europe through US capital inflows and bonds, which are now worth nothing.

You didn't make it up, but you fail to properly analyse your hastily "googled" sources:
That's from your source.
This is also from your sources:
You may want to read these articles thoroughly before jumping to conclusions.

Your miserable attempt to link Saddam Hussein, a well-known secularist and staunch opponent of radical Islam (because it threatened his unbridled control over his people) to every terrorist group in the world via some lame-duck, independent blog is laughable.

As in, apart from the utterly deranged, who still cling to the hope that WMD's will be unearthed in Iraq someday, no one is seriously still adhering to the notion Iraq had WMD's prior to 2003; despite the fact 8 years of searching has turned up nothing.

So that means they have to be under the Iron Yoke of the United States and her Imperialistic Hegemony?

You know my sister's, cat's, cousin's, father's friend of a friend also told me that story too, so I suppose it must be verifiable.

Ex-Official Says "Russia Moved Saddam's WMDs"
The headline article on NewsMax.com today uncovers a rather disturbing report by the former Deputy Undersecretary of Defense, John A. Shaw. In a speech he gave at the "Intelligence Summit" in Virginia, Shaw presented his evidence claiming that the Russian military moved Saddam's weapons for him right before the start of the Iraq war.

Main articles: Al Qa'qaa high explosives controversy and WMD theories in the aftermath of the 2003 Iraq War
Mr. Shaw was responsible for tracking Saddam Hussein's weapons programs before and after the 2003 liberation of Iraq. He stated in October 2004, March 2005, and again in February 2006 that it was the Russians who helped Saddam Hussein to "clean up" his weapons of mass destruction stockpiles "to prevent the United States from discovering them."
In particular, on February 18, 2006, Shaw told a conference at The Intelligence Summit in Alexandria, Virginia, that "The short answer to the question of where the WMD Saddam bought from the Russians went was that they went" to Syria and the Beqaa Valley in Lebanon, Kenneth R. Timmerman reported February 19, 2006, in NewsMax. "They were moved by Russian Spetsnaz (special forces) units out of uniform, that were specifically sent to Iraq to move the weaponry and eradicate any evidence of its existence," Shaw said.
After accusing Russian GRU of helping Saddam to remove his WMD, Shaw was asked to resign for "exceeding his authority" in disclosing the information, a charge he called "specious." Shaw was forced out of office when his position was eliminated on December 10, 2004.
Shaw stated that he went public with his comments regarding Russia moving Iraq's WMD when he did to help George W. Bush who he felt was being "crucified" by the revelations that over 350 tons of explosives had gone missing in Iraq as a result of the U.S. invasion [3]. He said "If I had not had the openly hostile environment in [Pentagon public affairs], I would have moved the story differently. Getting the truth out instantly was more important than process."
Ex-spy fingers Russians on WMD

As a former Romanian spy chief who used to take orders from the Soviet KGB, it is perfectly obvious to me that Russia is behind the evanescence of Saddam Hussein's weapons of mass destruction. After all, Russia helped Saddam get his hands on them in the first place. The Soviet Union and all its bloc states always had a standard operating procedure for deep sixing weapons of mass destruction -- in Romanian it was codenamed "Sarindar, meaning "emergency exit."Iimplemented it in Libya. It was for ridding Third World despots of all trace of their chemical weapons if the Western imperialists ever got near them. We wanted to make sure they would never be traced back to us, and we also wanted to frustrate the West by not giving them anything they could make propaganda with.
All chemical weapons were to be immediately burned or buried deep at sea. Technological documentation, however, would be preserved in microfiche buried in waterproof containers for future reconstruction. Chemical weapons, especially those produced in Third World countries,which lack sophisticated production facilities, often do not retain lethal properties after a few months on the shelf and are routinely dumped anyway. And all chemical weapons plants had a civilian cover making detection difficult, regardless of the circumstances.
The plan included an elaborate propaganda routine. Anyone accusing Moammar Gadhafi of possessing chemical weapons would be ridiculed. Lies, all lies! Come to Libya and see! Our Western left-wing organizations, like the World Peace Council, existed for sole purpose of spreading the propaganda we gave them. These very same groups bray the exact same themes to this day. We always relied on their expertise at organizing large street demonstrations in Western Europe over America'swar-mongering whenever we wanted to distract world attention from the crimes of the vicious regimes we sponsored.
Iraq, in my view, had its own "Sarindar" plan in effect direct from Moscow. It certainly had one in the past. Nicolae Ceausescu told me so, and he heard it from Leonid Brezhnev. KGB chairman Yury Andropov, and later, Gen. Yevgeny Primakov, told me so too. In the late 1970s, Gen. Primakov ran Saddam's weapons programs.
