“Putin is Pursuing Lenin’s Goal”
Obama will put a stop this...hahahaha.
Not to worry, Putin has his agent of hope and change installed in the White House - offering more flexibility now that the election is over...
Putin is pseudo-Christian former KGB apparatchik.
But to claim the Soviet regime has not changed is purely silly.
It has gone from a horrific totalitarian regime to a typical authoritarian regime. You are free to travel, start your own small business, and access foreign culture as long as it is not political and anti-regime. Fairly typical for most non-democratic regimes.
Goal is not to control the world, silly given its population and resources; but to control Russia’s near abroad. The historical geo-political goal of the Russian Empire.
And this is news? Holy cow, the EU is pursuing Hitler’s goals.
Putin didn’t start this. Those who overthrew the legally elected Ukrainian government did. Kind of ironic how things are settling out isn’t it.
Then all the Kremlin has to do is sit back and relax because the Globo-Marxists in the White House, Brussels, and the City of London are destroying Western Civilization in North America and Europe with out any help from the puny Russians.
Time again we hear our military saying that old school thinking is not helpful in determining how to deal with the Russia of today, and creates issues when attempting to do just that..... Crimea revealed Putin's tactics and warfare have changed....but Putin's now revealed how he will play his hand when as he determines to hault EU's expansion.
Putin's a Nationalist far more than Communist leanings. His aspirations are to stop the encroachment of Nato on his borders...... NATO’s goal is clearly that of expansion to further build their coalition (EU Empire). The prize is access to a country that shares a 1,426-mile border with Russia.
The geopolitical map would be dramatically reshaped should Nato successfully control Ukraine entire...and would create the new front for US Western missile defense at the doorstep of Russia.
Though I do not agree with Putin and his actions, I do understand why Putin does what he does with Ukraine. Obama's pivot to Asia tour also comes into play at this time...in order to affect China and Russia's cozy relationship, both economically and politically.
Geopolitics are moving rapidly and a "war" in and of itself being fought on the world stage....Putin's as much in it as the Eu and US.....all seeking the next prize to one-up the other.
And so is Obama.
One of my father’s Russian cousins got out in 1994. I asked him what it was like to live without the Communists in charge any more, and he replied: “Same wall, different wallpaper.”
The title is only a half truth.
Lenin was only pursuing the imperial Czars goals, masked or urged on by his ideological zealousness.
Russia is, was and always has been a nation to which “major nation” status is ONLY available to it by bullying and dominating its neighbors. Left to what nature has provided Russia and no more, it would be a backwater in Europe. That was never enough for Russia’s leaders and it still isn’t.
