Who does Moscow fear, and why? What message is Moscow trying to send, and why does it feel threatened? ==
Russia is one of countries which got invaded many times. After repelling the invasion she went there where the invasion came from and rooted it out. That is how she became so big. All her provinces it was one time the states who attacked her borders. She accualy never attack no one in first place but she always payed back her debts.
SO again in case of her security she trust no one. Because she saw in time that the yestoday friend became the enemy today. It means that any measure which disbalance the security balance makes her very suspicious and she will try everything possible to balance it again. The type of the balance is: “you may hurt me but I can hurt you back”.
You should understand. Russia isn’t fear no one but she is casious. What she does now are precasiousnesses to have her teeth long enough for any possible and imaginable threat. Russia believes into peace secured by her force. The best most spead and supported by people proverb of Russia is : “The best friends of Russia are her military forces. If you do not feed your military then you entitled to feed foreign”.
Secondly. Russia is the trully independent state. She were that way for centuries. So she can go with friends but can do it without them. She weren’t and isn’t no asskisser friend which you got a bunch lastest years. I mean those small*s of eastern Europe.
So Russia is Russia. The large euro-asian country who trust noone with her security and who goes her own way. Simply you do not provoke her and get into her way and everything will be fine.
They fear NATO and an American government back under the thumb of the KKKlinton/Soros nexus. The "why" of it is called "Kosovo". To my thinking it's perfectly rational.
Patton and Churchill were right about wanting to kick the USSR’s ass in 1945 but the will wasn’t there. The West subjected the world to 50 years of Cold War and Eastern Europe to 50 years of slavery for that stupid decision.
Soon to be exported to Iran, Syria, Venezuela, et al.
I’m glad Russia is defending her capital. I’m sure against whom, but I’m glad.
Wish we’d make more an effort to defend our country...
Russia suffers from “loser complex.”
