Russians, the innocent bystanders

From ABC concerning the recently released report that
Russia supplied Saddam with intelligence before the war:

MOSCOW Mar 27, 2006 (AP)— Russia's foreign minister accused the United States on Monday of having "hidden political motives" for a report that said Moscow turned over information on American military plans to Saddam Hussein during the invasion of Iraq.

Sergey Lavrov's comments were the first formal statement from President Vladimir Putin's government about the Pentagon report, though a spokesman for Russia's foreign spy agency over the weekend denied the report's allegations.

"Hidden political motives" doesn't mean it's not true. Fact is
that we did much more than this to hinder the Russians when they
were in Afghanistan. I have to wonder if this wasn't a little
official, or unofficial, payback.
So lets look the other way this time.
