It’s beyond me why McCain and the dems want to foment a war besides the obvious monetary gain for certain sections.
If anything, we need to develop a relationship with Russia to counter a China-North Korea-Iran axis.
Russia has a lot to lose since China is informally annexing parts of Russia bordering China through emigration.
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.
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.
“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?
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
Putin is partnered with Iran and the mad mullahs.
I also wonder why McCain is always fixated on starting or getting involved in another war. Don’t his Arizona constituents have any economic problems at home that he should be prioritizing? Are the people of Arizona really more concerned about what’s going on in Ukraine or Syria or Russia than their own problems?
The cynic in me wonders whether McCain, who married into a beer dynasty, thinks war is good for liquor sales because it causes people problems and worries that they try to drink away
You do realize that Russia is allies with Iran right? As of matter fact Iran inked a ten billion dollar arms with Russia and the Russians have said they want no changes in the Iran-Nuclear deal.
