Donald Trump removes Russia from list of US defense priorities
SOTT ^ | 12/21/16 | Sergey Gladysh

Posted on 12/20/2016 8:03:58 PM PST by DeathBeforeDishonor1

According to a leaked Pentagon memo, Russia is not on the list of Donald Trump's defense priorities.

The priorities, as they have been outlined by the incoming Trump administration, include defeating ISIS, eliminating budget caps, developing a new cyber strategy, and finding greater efficiencies.

The memo, obtained by Foreign Policy, does not include any mention of Russia, which has been identified by senior military officials in the Obama administration as the No. 1 threat to the United States.

They all hate Russia because it is majority white, has a state religion, which is Christendom, and is a center of Caucasian culture.

So true.

They hate whitey. They hate Christianity.

Would you like it if the U.S. had a state religion as long as it’s Christendom?

You may want to update your Russian outlook from the 1950s. This is 2017 coming up here.


You may want to open your eyes. One party state fascist Russia will never be a friend of the United States.

Note to Trump.. When you dont know who to trust, trust only yourself.

Although Russia might be fighting ISIS, who are they fighting them for? Why are they fighting them? What is the result they are looking for? We already know the When and Where. The question is the Who, What and Why..

You need a REAL sit down with them and find out WTH. Remember that they are close to Iran as well as Red China.

“senior military officials in the Obama administration as the No. 1 threat to the United States.”

All the more reason to say pi$$ off to their analysis.

That “Reset” button wasn’t infamous, it was infantile and stupid. How embarrassing Hillary was offering the plastic piece of sh*t to the Russians.

Naming Russia (or China, North Korea, Iran, the list goes on) would identify problems everyone already recognize. Businessmen don't waste time stating the obvious. This list of priorities identifies solutions to those problems. It's not surprising this would confuse Liberals since they've never actually solved anything. They're just good at identifying (or inventing) a problem and then asking for money which by some mystical process they cannot describe will solve it.

I SERIOUSLY DOUBT that Obama had Russia on his enemies list prior to Russia taking steps to protect its kids from gay recruiting.

“Killing kids with chemical weapons is holy? “

That is pure propaganda. The only chem attacks were by rebels, against their own. They happened immediately when Obama said a Syrian gas attack would result in the F-18s flying top cover for the rebels, and wiping out Syrian army positions. the famous “red line” scam.

Predictably, a couple of days later “oh look, we just got gassed!”.

Its childish.

best example of fake news in the universe; this vile fairy tale you’re peddling that Vladimir Putin is some sort of western style evangelical Christian.

It’s obscene, and moderately retarded.

I keep hearing that Iran is the big problem. Yet, the all the main terror is coming from the sunni salafists.

——Putin is practicing Russian Orthodox.——

He has a weird way of showing it by poisoning his political opponents with polonium-210 ...

“When my wife (70) was in high school, her history teacher told them not to worry about Russia, that China was the threat”

How does one say “Schrecklichkeit” in Chinese? Must look it up! lol

I think Donald is signaling to Russia: we have no chip on our shoulder about you now. We trust you will return the sentiment. If things change then everything is up for grabs again.

Putin’s sixth commandment; Thou Shalt Not Kill; unless the bastard really pisses you off, in which case you should murder him with radioactivity.
