Can you elaborate on this?
We are getting involved in a tangle of alliances, assuming that the other tangle won’t care. Austria did not expect anyone to care about a terrorist regime in Serbia, not after their next in line for the throne got killed in a bombing. When the French, Russians, and Germans, all started mobilizing, it was to late.
We don’t think anyone really cares about Syria, not after they supposedly used gas on their own people. But Russia is starting to mobilize. Just like Austria did in WWI, we refuse to see that there is a massive power block that is moving to block us.
WWI was a blunder. No one really thought about what was going on until the war was in full bloom. I see the US doing the same. Obama is looking to start a war with Syria, and Russia has said they will honor their treaties. Yet no one in the nomenclature seems to have noticed.
