Inspector Clouseau Returns

The European Union will investigate whether the Russians tried to spy on them at a big conference Russia hosted. This should be amusing.

Was Russia spying on European leaders?

The European Union is investigating newspaper reports that Russia tried to put spyware onto computers of visiting delegations in St. Petersburg at last month's summit of leaders from the world's 20 top economies, but has yet to find any evidence.



The Russians did not have a license. The Russians say it is not their monkey. I'll take a leap of faith and say nothing will come of this so-called investigation. The EU will let Russia off with a warning. It's far safer to complain about inflated stories of American espionage.

The EU did such a splendid job in their Georgia War blame investigation, after all.

To say the EU is worthless is to ignore the danger it poses to Europeans, liberty, and our national interests.

If the Russians didn't also try to break up NATO, opposing the rise of the EU should provide a basis for US-Russian cooperation, no?
