Explain WhyWe Are We Even Adversaries With Russia?
Self | 07/19/2024 | Self

Russia supports our adversaries because we still treat Russia as our adversary. A change in policy could change the global world order overnight. China and Islamists are our true enemies.

Not true at all. Russia only expands when threatened, and only by neutralizing the threat.

Russia is Christian.

Sure, invading another country is such a Christian thing to do.

Look, we know you are a Russian stooge.

A pathetic one.

It’s funny you make a vanity post to proclaim your allegiance to Russia.

My question is are you a turncoat or a foreign agent?

I don’t have it backwards - I stated that the ONLY countries in Europe that are suspicious of the Neocons are ones who lived under Soviet domination.

That is STILL true, even if the Neocons have managed to also seize control over some of the Eastern European countries.

Actually we “Blame the Democrats First”, as this is THEIR WAR.

What BS! Ukraine was not a threat to Russia. Don't buy into Russian propaganda. This is all about Putin's refusal to accept Ukraine as an independent country and attempting to bring it back to the control of mother Russia. Russia could have a neutral Ukraine today if they would just withdraw. Rather, as so many pro-Russians here have expressed support, Putin wants to slice away Ukrainian territory and make Ukraine subservient to Russia.

Because the military industrial complex needs an eternal war so they can grind out profit eternally.

It's not all bad and pointless. The military is often the only customer for cutting edge technologies, when no other enterprise can justify the cost. That primes the pump of new prosperity. Further, white man is the most deadly creature to ever walk the face of Earth, or Moon. If all the white men banded together on the same team, the rest of the world would go the way of the American Indians.

Russia needs to be humbled so they’ll submit to the globalists and be subject to foreign rule.

“seize control”?

These places also tend to be the least EU- compliant of EU/NATO members. Poland under Duda and the Law and Justice party for instance. To the extent that the EU froze 137 Billion Euros in support payments over a decade.

You guys seem to hate Poland, and discount their very costly efforts against bureaucratic domination. Your attitude is hypocritical and disgusting.

The RAND corporation report gave us the reason -- the Western/globalist elite want to break Russia into six different countries so it can raid it of its resources. Russia has the most natural resources of any country in the world.

Estonia's Kaja Kallas, foreign policy chief of the EU, repeated this goal recently.

Lindsey Graham several weeks ago on CBS revealed the real reason for the proxy war in Ukraine -- Ukraine has $10 to $12 trillion dollars of natural resources.

Follow the $$$ -- the liberal world order is all about greed.

And, since Donald Trump cares about this nation as a whole and wouldn't go along with the plan, the powers that be have tried imprison and murder him.

Russia has a way of deciding it is “feeling threatened” whenever it suits the bosses foreign policy.

This goes back to the Soviet era, and before.

Perhaps it is because Russia is militarily expansionist.

LOL. says the country with 800 military bases around the world and its military alliance that wants to be right up on Russia's border.

My understanding is that Poland has ‘come around’ mostly on archaic concept of letting kids grow up without being subjected to gays on a regular basis.

Russia and the US should have formed an alliance against China as the latter rose to power

How would that have worked? Russia and China were both the result of communist revolutions and Russia was always allied with communist China. Have you ever wondered why China, North Korea, and North Vietnamese troops use AK-47 style rifles?

Why and when exactly would Russia have abandoned their communist allies in China?

we have effectively turned Russia from a European nation into an Asian one...

Is that why Russia was allied with North Vietnam during the Vietnam war? Were they somehow "European" and allied with the French?

Russia has been allies with the communists in Asia since the communist takeover of China. They were allies with the North Koreans 70 years ago.

The Law and Justice party lost the last election, after holding the line for a decade. At great cost, as I noted. For which it got only brickbats from the likes of you.
