The neo-con train has already left the station. The trend is back towards nationalism, with implicit agreements (perhaps explicit) towards recognized regions of influence.

It wouldn't surprise me one bit if Trump arranged a meeting with Putin & Jinping to divvy up the world. We get Cuba, China gets Taiwan and Russia gets Ukraine/Baltics. Together, each country can work towards eradicating their respective client states that lend themselves towards chaos. We'd replace the KSA rulers, China would occupy NK, and Russia would topple the Iranian clerics.

Rather than being exceptional acts, this is actually how the world has always been managed between major powers. Each of the global powers know that wars can no longer be "won". As such, major conflicts are simply bad for business.

The only ones pushing this country towards (regional) war were the arms merchants, banks and other deep state beneficiaries - like the CIA - of perpetual war.

I think we are all going to be a bit amazed at what it will be like to live in more peaceful times once the stuffing is knocked out of pissant Islamic terrorists & contrived regional conflicts like Iraq.

You misread Putin. He doesn’t want the Baltic and Ukraine. Nationalist Russians already consider that part of Russia.

He wants the arctic. Just as the Chicoms covet the South China Sea. And what has appeasing the Chicoms gotten us there? I’ll buy you a clue: The same will happen with Russia and the arctic if the US is not assertive.

But feel free continue your day dreams if that floats your boat. However, I can assure you KGB Vlad has no interest in your “deal.”

The "neo-con train has already left the station", yet you want to carve up relatively free sovereign countries such as Taiwan, Ukraine and the Baltics.

You weren't being serious, were you?
