I hear what you’re saying, that makes a lot of sense. And I certainly don’t want Eastern Europe to be hit by missles.
I’m very suspicious of the folks in Washington with what they did with Serbia and Kosovo. I think they’re slavophobic. I think they’d want to turn Eastern Europe into a dumping ground for the third-world’s overpopulation. I think they’re interested in destablizing Europe. And I’m thinking seriously about moving my family to Eastern Europe before the US turns into MS13 and Latin Kings paradise. At least that’s what I saw when I visisted last year. And I met some Russians and I totally humiliated myself with the “Red Dawn” mindset talking to them. They had no angst whatosever against the US. So ???
You were foolish enough to go to a foreign country and treat people we have no beef against like the enemy, and YOU HAVE THE GALL TO BLAME THE REST OF US FOR YOUR STUPIDITY?
The general population is in pretty bad shape financially, morally and have lost their pride. This is why Putin is able to manipulate the entire society into thinking that the good ole days will return, but there never were good ole days! It was a myth.
Russians, like their Germanic counterparts, will try again and again to rise like the phoenix, and return to a greatness that was never real to begin with.
As a result, we will continue to have wars fought by proxy, for the most part until the crap hits the fan one day.
We are very, very close now, to WWIII. It's a given, under the current circumstances. Russia, Iran and China are gradually doing the things necessary in preparation for this war, and we need to be ready for it, because when it occurs, their will be annihilation on all sides and there will be no winner.
It's unfortunate, but it's also very human. It is for this reason that we are not yet ready for prime time, much less a long peaceful prosperity.
Knowing this, you would think would cause some introspection by those who threaten others. The Russians are not involved in this to protect anyone, they simply want Georgia back into the former USSR fold and are doing these instigation's in order to prompt Georgia into a short war that knocks all the stuffing out of them and causes the people to demand a return to Russian membership to stop the madness.
It's that simple. Over the last few months and years, the Russians have salted the breakaways with Russian passports, money and materials. They want it all back so that they can sit at the table with the Chinese and the Iranians as a power in what will come.
The sad thing is that the Russians will gain nothing and likely be totally destroyed this time around. But they can't change, because they think a return to a greatness they never had is more important.
