” and they shucked off that burden over 30 years ago and went back to being friendly. But DC and morons refused to shift gears…. so simpletons and grifter out to make money declare them our “historic enemy”.”

Having just taught a class on the Russian Civil War and taken a class on the history of Eastern Europe i have reconsidered my thoughts on US foreign policy since 1945.
I was in the Fulda Gap in the mid 70s.
Anyway I woner what would have happen if the neocons who “won the cold war” had looked at a Marshall plan to help Russia instead of spiking the football and doing an end zone dance. But then I assume government policy makers cannot look farther ahead than the next election.
