Creating Russophobia: From the Great Religious Schism to Anti-Putin Hysteria
Why do the USA, UK and Europe so hate Russia? How it is that Western antipathy, once thought due to anti-Communism, could be so easily revived over a crisis in distant Ukraine, against a Russia no longer communist? Why does the West accuse Russia of empire-building, when 15 states once part of the defunct Warsaw Pact are now part of NATO, and NATO troops now flank the Russian border? These are only some of the questions Creating Russophobia iinvestigates.
He then delves into the historical, religious, ideological and geopolitical roots of the detestation of Russia in various European nations over thirteen centuries since Charlemagne competed with Byzantium for the title of heir to the Roman Empire. Mettan examines the geopolitical machinations expressed in those times through the medium of religion, leading to the great Christian schism between Germanic Rome and Byzantium and the European Crusades against Russian Orthodoxy. This history of taboos, prejudices and propaganda directed against the Orthodox Church provides the mythic foundations that shaped Western disdain for contemporary Russia. From the religious and imperial rivalry created by Charlemagne and the papacy to the genesis of French, English, German and then American Russophobia, the West has been engaged in more or less violent hostilities against Russia for a thousand years. Contemporary Russophobia is manufactured through the construction of an anti-Russian discourse in the media and the diplomatic world, and the fabrication and demonization of The Bad Guy, now personified by Vladimir Putin

This is a load of shit. Putin is a murdering scumbag. The Russian army is nowhere near as well organized as western militaries. If we’ve learned anything here it’s that the Russians wouldn’t last a week against US or NATO forces. They’re a second class military.
"The fight is here, I need ammunition, not a ride." I cannot envision one single American politician who would say this, or even answering the question because they would have already taken the ride.

I have no idea if this is the same guy, but it would be amusing. I just find it hard to believe that moron actually passed exams."The fight is here, I need ammunition, not a ride." I cannot envision one single American politician who would saying this, or even answering the question because they would have already taken the ride.
