The top news story of the morning is an ominous one. Hugo Chavez, the Communist dictator of Venezuela, has invited the Russian Navy to undertake a series of military exercises in the Caribbean within the next few months.
According to a report filed by Reuters News Service, several Russian naval ships and up to 1000 Russian soldiers will participate in a joint exercise with Venezuela in the Caribbean from November 10-14.
The move is expected to greatly increase tensions between Russia and the West, particularly in light of the nation's invasion of neighboring country, Georgia.
Since the invasion, several U.S. allies in Europe have expressed grave concerns about their security and have requested the U.S. nuclear defensive missile shield, as well as American warheads.
Russia's response to the request was threatening. At least twice the nation threatened to attack Poland with nuclear warheads should it proceed with plans for the missile shield.
The world community has almost unanimously condemned Russia for its actions and statements.
And with its latest effort to team up with Chavez's communist regime in the Western Hemisphere, the Russian menace continues to thumb its nose at the rest of the world and undertake a military exercise that is clearly designed to send a message to the U.S.
The U.S. is long overdue in sending a clear message right back to Putin, Chavez, and their Commie alliance. To put off sending such a signal, the U.S. and the West is only feeding a growing monster.

LIBERTY ALERT! RUSSIA THREATENS THE WEST
In a stunning development of draconian proportions, Russia has threatened the West with a response that will 'go beyond diplomacy' if the U.S. follows through with its missile shield in Poland.
The U.S. signed the agreement with Poland over the objections of the Russians who not only oppose U.S. Patriot missiles being placed in the country to counter the Iranian threat, but who also object to an anti-missile defense shield to protect Europe from an attack.
But this afternoon the Russians upped the ante by threatening to 'go beyond diplomacy' in its response to the missile shield being placed in Poland.
Matt Drudge via Breitbart reports that Russia issued its second such threat in just 2 days following the signatures on the agreement between the U.S. and Poland.
Earlier in the week the Russians hinted that such an agreement would 'leave Poland open to a nuclear attack.'
The latest threat is yet another signal that many observers claim that Russia has moved to open another Cold War and to position itself as the enemy of Europe and the United States. The move comes some 20 years after the fall of the Soviet Union and the tearing down of the Berlin Wall.
But under former KGB operative Vladimir Putin, Russia has taken a definite turn toward the ominous.

RUSSIA GOES NUTS OVER POLAND'S OFFER
Russia has threatened Poland with a nuclear attack.
Yes, you read that right.
When the nation of Poland, frightened by Russia's blatant, lawless invasion of a sovereign nation, offered the U.S. the right to place a nuclear missile defense shield in the country, Russia responded by going nuts...bonkers...luny.
In response to Poland's desire to protect itself from nukes, Russia went into hysterics by threatening Poland with a nuclear attack if they allow the U.S. to give them such a defense shield.
According to Financial Times, Russia is concerned about the part of the agreement that allows the U.S. to place some of its Patriot missiles in Poland.
Yet the Russians hardly have any room to complain. By invading and occupying Georgia, which posed absolutely no threat whatsoever to the Russians, Vladimir Putin and his KGB comrades who control the government have demonstrated to the world that they are just as great a threat to world stability and the security of bordering nations as the old USSR.
Both Poland and the Czech Republic are in grave danger of attack and invasion by the Russians. The entire area is also a prime target of Iran.
In order to provide for their defense against lunatics in the region such as Iran and Russia, the nations of Poland, the Czech Republic, Georgia, and others are in dire need of the anti-missile defense shield.

LIAR! Putin Breaks 1-Day-Old Truce with Georgia
In less than 24-hours after agreeing to a cease-fire with the Georgian Republic which it had illegally invaded, the Russian Communists under the direction of Vladimir Putin broke the agreement by sending in the tanks and troops through a southern Georgian town, provoking violence.
Putin's actions are reminiscent of one Adolf Hitler, who, after signing a treaty with Chamberlain of Great Britain, promising to stop invading territory that wasn't his, proceeded to invade Poland before the ink had dried on the document.
Perhaps the words of CNN's Jack Cafferty in describing the Chi-Coms as 'the same old goons and thugs they've always been' also apply to Putin and the Kremlin.
A Commie is always a Commie. You can take him out of the old military uniforms worn by totalitarians of the past, dress him up in a nicely-tailored Western suit, have him smile and say nice things about 'human rights,' but in the end he is still a Commie who wants to take away your liberty.
And he certainly still wants to take over as much of the world as possible.
Putin and the Russian Commies are no different. Not only do they want Georgia, but if they are allowed to succeed in this blatant violation of a nation's sovereignty, they will want the Ukraine and Poland as well.
The liars need to nipped in the bud before the menace gets too big to manage.

Russia Seeks Return to Soviet Domination
It is clear that with Vladimir Putin's invasion of the sovereign nation of Georgia, Russia is seeking to return to the old days of Soviet domination in the region.
The former province of the USSR had sought and won its independence from Russia at the end of the Cold War. As long as former Russian President Boris Yeltsin was at the helm, Georgia could be assured of its continued independence.
But with the ascension of former KGB operative Vladimir Putin to the nation's highest office, political observers have noticed a distinct turn away from the reforms accomplished under Mikael Gorbachev and Boris Yeltsin and a gradual return to the oppressive policies of the old Communist USSR.
The relatively small nation of Georgia is no match for the Russian army. When the tanks rolled in, Georgian citizens were clearly outnumbered and overpowered. Reports from Moscow indicate that Putin plans to send in even more tanks and troops.
Clearly, the intent is a complete takeover of the country, which many analysts say poses an ominous threat to the region and may signal the beginning of a new Cold War.
European nations in particular have grave concerns about the Russian violation and its ramifications for other nations in the region.
Make no mistake, Putin is a Communist and never stopped being a Communist, though in the early part of his regime he acted as if he were a reformer in the tradition of Gorbachev and Yeltsin. The KGB agent in him is too strong and too powerful. His tactics were born in the bowels of the KGB. And his goal is Russian dominance in the tradition of Stalin, Kruschev, and Brezhnev.
The entire community of the free world should unanimously and strongly condemn Russia for its act of aggression against a basically defenseless sovereign nation.
And unless the Russian army stands down, there should be swift and resolute military consequences initiated by the West.

Albania Greets Bush as Beloved Hero
Washington, DC (TLS). President Bush was received in this former Soviet bloc country as a hero on Sunday as he became the very first American President to visit the impoverished Eastern European nation.
In statement that is sure to irk Russian Prime Minister Vladimir Putin, Bush stated that it is imperative that Albania continue on its process of independence--a statement that brought loud cheers from average Albanian citizens as well as their leaders.
Increasingly, the Putin regime is acting as if it wishes to return to the old paradigm of a Soviet Union, consisting of small nations dominated and ruled by one large, powerful Communist government located in Moscow.
It is clear that Putin repudiates the move toward liberty that was embraced by Boris Yeltsin and Michael Gorbachev.
Yet the nations that were once dominated and oppressed by Soviet Communists celebrate the American vision of liberty and independence and treat our leaders as heroes. Albania and Poland have been two of our staunchest allies in the War on Terror.
Poland has even begun the process of erecting statues to the memory of Ronald Reagan and naming several landmarks after the deceased former President.
