Russia is a lot like Gondor, in Lord of the Rings. They have been fending off various tribes of Orcs for a long time, to a large extent this kept Muslim incursions to a minimum in Western Europe. (exceptions being Spain, Sicily, attacks on Vienna)
Russia has spent centuries bleeding from various hordes from the East (Mongols, etc) and the South (Muslims).
And all they get is #*$* from the West.
Well, it’s their self-appointed job to make sure that the United States doesn’t casually use nuclear weapons in any of it’s conflicts.
We certainly have much more in common with Orthodox Christian Russia than we do with the Fallible and Uninspired Euro-proxy Royal Oligarchs of Sharia/Saudi-Arabia.
The Saudis and their Wahhabitard terrorists should've been told to eat sand on 911 - but America's own royal dynasty evidently valued the profitable nature of Military Industrial empire building over Truth and Honor.
In partnership with Russia, America can neutralize the manufactured threat of ISIS by exposing it for the fraud that it is... and then move forward in the construction of a future that puts the bankrupt Royal NWO petro-dolla-garchy in the rear view mirror.
I can say nearly the same about Poland...Checks and Slovaks...Romania....Hungary. What did they get from Russia?
Well, there was that whole Communism thing.
