Yeah...I give as much credibility to WND as I do for Raw Story and Alex Jones...which is none...

Every once in awhile they might hit on something like a blind acorn finding a nut, but I wouldn't wade through the muck to get to the exceptions...

From a footnote to a column by Joe Miller on the matter at hand:

"This is not a new issue. In fact the Bush and Clinton administrations are directly at fault for the same inaction. A maritime agreement negotiated by the U.S. State Department set the Russian boundary on the other side of the disputed islands, but no treaty has ratified this action. Consequently, it is within the president's power to stop this giveaway. The Alaska delegation’s failure to put pressure on the administration is inexplicable. State Department Watch, an organization that assisted with this article, has confronted each administration and is currently confronting the Obama administration — and has been met by silence. I'm hoping this piece will help reinvigorate efforts to stop this handover."
