A few months ago the pro-Soviet guys at FR, were trying to portray Russia as the world’s super power, a military powerhouse, too strong for America and Great Britain, France, and Germany, Poland, and the other 23 NATO nations to defeat or defend themselves from.
I thought that you might be thinking of Russia as still being strong, like the old version of 1990.
I think of everybody as being weak these days, especially us.
We’re in a rough time.
We’re phenomenally strong but we won’t fight the bad guys to win any more. Who will win between a muscled up pacifist and a 98lb weakling with a bad temper?
