Americans should understand, given that their leaders once threatened nuclear war over the issue of Russian missiles in Cuba. https://www.opednews.com/articles/Why-Russia-Probably-will-n-by-Walter-Uhler-Drone-Bombing-Americans_George-Bush_Media-Hypocrisy_Mikhail-Gorbachev-140624-538.html Tue, 24 Jun 2014 21:53:55 -0400 https://www.opednews.com/articles/Why-Russia-Probably-will-n-by-Walter-Uhler-Drone-Bombing-Americans_George-Bush_Media-Hypocrisy_Mikhail-Gorbachev-140624-538.html Walter Uhler Although President George H. W. Bush set a precedent when he ordered the bombing of Panama, which he justified in part by claiming a need to protect the lives of Americans living there, it is unlikely that President Putin will bomb Kiev's coup regime forces in eastern Ukraine to protect the many Russians living there.

Rather than rushing to recognize such people as the new rulers in Ukraine, the US, EU and Russia must investigate. In the process, Vladimir Putin's decision to send troops to the Crimea might be seen in a new light. https://www.opednews.com/articles/The-Historical-Jesus-and-N-by-Walter-Uhler-Christian-Religion_Christianity_Crucifixion_Faith-131009-782.html Wed, 09 Oct 2013 23:32:49 -0400 https://www.opednews.com/articles/The-Historical-Jesus-and-N-by-Walter-Uhler-Christian-Religion_Christianity_Crucifixion_Faith-131009-782.html Walter Uhler In part two of my review of Zealot, by Reza Aslan and Christian Beginnings, by Geza Vermes, I address the conflict between Paul and Jesus' brother James as well as the four contradictory explanations in the New Testament concerning when Jesus became Christ. https://www.opednews.com/articles/The-Historical-Jesus-and-N-by-Walter-Uhler-Angels-And-Devils_Bible-thumping_Book-Reviews_Catholic-Church-131007-984.html Tue, 08 Oct 2013 00:52:31 -0400 https://www.opednews.com/articles/The-Historical-Jesus-and-N-by-Walter-Uhler-Angels-And-Devils_Bible-thumping_Book-Reviews_Catholic-Church-131007-984.html Walter Uhler This is part one of a review essay of two books devoted to the subject of the historical Jesus https://www.opednews.com/articles/Fifty-Years-after-the-Augu-by-Walter-Uhler-Discrimination_FREEDOM_History_Jobs-130923-412.html Mon, 23 Sep 2013 23:18:56 -0400 https://www.opednews.com/articles/Fifty-Years-after-the-Augu-by-Walter-Uhler-Discrimination_FREEDOM_History_Jobs-130923-412.html Walter Uhler Over the past fifty years Americans have forgotten the main objective of the March on Washington.
