Russia is a minor world player. We don't want or need their advice.

Wrong on so many counts. They are in the top ten of all nations when it comes to population, oil production, GDP, military power and nuclear weapons.

got to be in the top ten for hacking as well....

Will news like this awaken my liberal friends from their self-induced dream that the cold war with Russia is over ? Russia has never given up their dream of dominating the US - they just changed strategies. ARE YOU NAIVE IN A DANGEROUS WORLD ? ? ?

Did you even read the article? lol. What a tool.

Nothing in the article even remotely reflects "Russia wanting to dominate the US". Russia simply wants to approach cyber war in the form of a Treaty, while the US wants to approach it from a Law Enforcement angle. You know, like two adults having a mature disagreement about two legitimate approaches to a problem. This is what happens in the real world -- join it sometime.

But then again I don't expect any of you fearmongering Republicans living out your victimization fanstasies while ever join reality.

Haha was their strategy to cripple their economy?

I'm terrified now...

I think you need to re-read this article.

Russia doesn't want to dominate the US, it wants the US out of its sphere of influence. Big difference.

But if dominating the US ever comes available, they'll take it!
