“Meanwhile, the West has been disarming and gave up the ideological conflict, thus producing people like you.”

Do not, FOR A MINUTE, blame me for the disarming, as you have NO CLUE as to who you’re talking to. My point is that the disarming by the West is now a DONE DEAL and we need to learn to live with the fallout from that, rather than acting like we still have a military worth a damn thing (no matter how effective LGBTs are). If we REALLY want a new Cold War, or hot war, how about we PREPARE for it, rather than start it at our weakest point in 70 years?

If we want to go to war with Russia it would DEFINITELY HELP if we were to start building up our military to the a capability where we can project power. I suspect that you’re one of those IDIOTS that looks at our military budget, compares it to China and Russia’s “published” budgets and thinks all is dandy. Well I’m not - I look at WEAPONS SYSTEMS and we simply haven’t done JACK since the Cold War ended (and even before then).

“Perestroika was the best thing that could happen to the Russians, since it put us all off guard. “

Agree.

I think I could agree with you on some level if you did not come off as a defeatist shill for Putin, though I am starting to think that sounding that way was not your intention. Our military is not inferior to Russia, though I do recognize that we are definitely not doing what we need to do to face them.
