Ya Gotta Love the Russians

These are the problems that interfere with better NATO-Russian relations, according to the Russians:

Differences over the war in Libya and missile defense are hindering efforts to build a strategic partnership between NATO and Russia, Russia's foreign minister said Monday.

Contemplate that. One, Russia opposes even a half-hearted sort-of-war against a brutal thug dictator. And two, Russia opposes NATO abilities to shoot down nuclear missiles aimed at Europe.

It's almost like the two things are related in Russian minds.
