I like how the Paulbots and other freaks always like to tell us how the "cold war" is over and everybody who says otherwise is crazy. We have a Russkie President who is former KGB, operating what is essentially a KGB state, with a media that is programming his people to hate Americans and blame us for all the world's ills, and with a military actively attempting to rebuild the Soviet Union and beyond.
This is called "the cold war."
Putin is not a Communist anymore, but a neo-Tsarist, whose goal is to rebuild the old Russian Empire, circa January 1917.
Putin is a communist, and the "Neo-Tsarists" in Russia are also Communists. They even say so. There are "ultranationalist" and "Orthodox" Christian Communists, and they sing the same tune, and that tune is Putin and him running things, and death to the United States.
"Russia is the only country in the world which is really capable of turning the USA into radioactive ash." - Dmitry Kiselyov, General Director of Russia Today
"An important aspect of the Eurasian worldview is an absolute denail of Western Civilization. In the opinion of the Eurasians, the West with its ideology of liberalism [Democracy] is an absolute evil." - Aleksandr Dugin, Political Scientist and adviser to MP Sergei Naryshkin
He wants a European and Asian hegemony, not a complete takeover of the world.
IOW, he just wants part of the world, not all of it.
Additionally, even if it was our business, the U.S. no longer has the moral authority, as well as the economic and military power, to do anything about it, the current Obama regime.
No one ever had moral authority fighting the Nazis. They were teamed up with Joseph Stalin. That is not a reason to not defend yourself. If I am guilty of some great sin, that does not mean it is okay for someone to rape and murder my family. This is no logic at all.
So Russia has attacked the U.S.?
Also, no self-respecting Communist would surround himself with Romanov trappings.
Get a clue.
Great explanation.
Can we start by stopping any aid we send there? The Russians made their bed, so let them sleep in it.
