So claims the Boston Globe, broadly the Guardian, Kucinich in newsmax, none of which are our favorites. forbes, I like them. The other sources were Russian and ones I wouldn't trust.

It came up way back in June when my sister visited; she is well versed in foreign policy, I said what I suspected and she agreed. Many talking about a proxy war, main characters would be us and Russia.

Did we make Yankovitch or whatever his name is do it, no, wasn't sure who was a thug. Seems like they all are.

What are we doing that ticks me off? Egypt, Lybia, I think maybe the public stopped them just in time not to go into Syria on the rebels' side, 90% against.

So it's hard to keep track of, admit to looking at Alex but I can tell ahead of time the position he will take on any given matter.

So maybe you are better versed in the sequence of events in Ukraine, but it's not wrong of me to wish that our relations with Russia hadn't turned so sour. First it was Obama will have more flexibility on nukes, open mike, shocking, he's wanting to emasculate our services and fired a whole lot of nuke experts for something that didn't sound too egregious especially compared with just a tiny fraction of what he has done.

Then he got into a pissin' contest with Putin because Putin showed him up on Syria I think it was. Yes, I remembered, and it was the chemical weapons Putin brokered the deal on. I'm mad that our relations had to deteriorate to this point.

And Putin has watched us blunder all over the Middle East and most importantly has not forgotten our role in nearly bankrupting them before.

It's not going away now. Putin may feel like the Ukraine was given away not that long ago which was once the very heart and soul of Russia. He grabbed for the Crimea, and now we don't know how far he will go or how much he is doing because we have major antagonized him, childishly I might add.

Don't take offense, but probably best not to make conclusions like this if all you can get out of it is a "seeming." Either something is or it isn't. You ought to look for the truth, and not rest on speculation.

As for Alex Jones, that's your first mistake. He is a dufus and likely a Russian plant himself. I remember when he was sucking up for Putin during the fraudulent elections, he and his website were parroting Russian media.

When Russian media tells you that there is a "proxy" war, they are only projecting their own guilt.
