I think there might be something to an idea I have seen posted here that McCain and Graham are afraid of Wikileaks dropping embarrassing information not hem.
Not enough of the sons and daughters of the American working classes have been killed or gravely injured in wars over the last 15 years. Not enough of the working classes’ hard-earned money has been spent on “nation building” and other Quixotic notions.
The Ruling Class wants WAR and they want it NOW. The working classes will PAY for electing Donald Trump!
“re you really that dumb, or are you just pretending? You can’t seriously not-know that Russia is closely allied with these 3 enemy regimes.”
Are you seriously dumb or unaware that countries change alliances constantly when it suits them.
It takes the right impetus.
BTW, I studied Imperial Russia, the USSR and Successor States for 30 years.
Lindsey and McCain popped into my mind.
Russia isn't far from collapse. 5 years. Maybe a bit longer. It is going to happen. When it does, we ought to be in the best position to help keep Russian resources in friendly hands. Poland or Germany would be the likely beneficiaries. I trust Poland more. Fewer muslims.
It might be worth a push or two.
Graham is a “bluster” freak and McCain is so senile, he’s forgot how to butter toast...
I made that same point on FB to a liberal friend last week. I haven’t checked to see if he responded or not.
Churchill said: “Jaw, jaw is better than war, war.” I want peace for the nation—war mongers should not be in charge. Too many people have died—in the Middle East, in Europe, Africa, and even here in America.
Putinist Russia threaned nuclear war on Denmark a while back. If that isn’t “war mongering” nothing is. Putinist Russia destroyed over 100 miles of European border and invaded their neighbor with a no insignia fag army. Then one party state fascist Russia handed out medals to those homos. If that isn’t “war mongering” nothing is.
China and Russia also have trade agreements leaving out the U.S. petrodollar.
Me thinks Trump is going to demonstrate what “Great” really means. This is outstanding.
Nothing “outstanding” about using foreign policy issues to score domestic political points. As we see with the kenyan this is a very dangerous thing to do.
Stupid People Example Number One:
“We have only to kick in the front door and the whole rotten Russian edifice will come tumbling down.” - Adolph Hitler on the eve of “Operation Barbarossa,” the German invasion of Russia in June, 1941.
No matter what Putin’s sins are, we’ll not fight a war with Russia for the neocons, or for you. So cut it out
I made that same point on FB to a liberal friend last week. I haven’t checked to see if he responded or not.
“Russia has a lot to lose since China is informally annexing parts of Russia bordering China through emigration.”
It mystifies me why the pundits seem to have totally forgotten geo-politics and the balance of powers always sought by world powers. Would not Russia want a powerful America to help them counterbalance China?
Obviously, no one in their right mind WANTS war with Russia. But that doesn’t mean we should sit on our butts doing nothing while they’re in the midst of basically restoring the evil empire that was the Soviet Union, and then-some if they eventually take control of the oil/gas-rich strategic Middle East. Read my earlier posts about what Pence and Sessions say about Putin and Russia.
It is a far jump to conclude that Russian hacking of US computer systems (which we have known about for ages) is proof that the Russians somehow influenced the election (by showing us the DNC's dirty laundry that the MSM refuses to show).
As far as hacking and infiltrating computer systems goes, I think China is a far more serious threat. China is well-known to steal technology, and it is steadily sending representatives to infiltrate other countries in the name of building infrastructure, but with the real goal to take their resources without really benefiting them at all.
There are only 3 nations standing in the way of a collapse to global governance (which the elites seem to be pushing); USA, Russia, and Israel. A war between the first two would leave the leave the 3rd alone against the world...coming soon
