This is insane. Way too close.

But this is what NATO is doing in Syria. Fucking with Russia. Supporting Isis. They may kill us all. Be sure to vote Hillary. She represents real change[/QU NATO to East

The Russians are accusing the west of breaking an agreement not to expand NATO east or towards its borders.

Ya and they're right. Encircling Russia with Georgia etc. NATO is the aggressor.

and when it come to our politics pravda seems to tell the truth about our govt be owned by the cronies and our media presents the propaganda put out by the cronies who own it.

Its a complete role reversal of the press. Our major media/press is now the old Pravda for the establishment cronies for all intents and purposes.

As a kid I never thought I would see that. But, it became obvious when the the television networks, the magazines and the newspapers were bought up by conglomerates and their major shareholders.

It is pretty ironic that our first marxist president has rotten relations with Russia. I'm sure obama's commie grandparents would have been very disappointed in him.

Of course, it's even more ironic that American right wingers admire putin far more than they do obama.

The analogy would be if we had lost the Cold War and The Soviets had expanded the Warsaw Pact to include Mexico, Cuba and all of Latin America. Then they orchestrated a coup in Canada to put their thugs in power.

The Russians were within their rights to do what they did.

And it would be within the USA's rights to shoot those assholes out of the air.

Nice we have a new russkie lover on ET. Probably has a poster of Putin on his living room wall.

Last time I looked, the Baltic Sea was on Russia's doorstep, not the USA's.

The USA is lucky the Russian air patrol did not sink their ship.

Russia is scared of the US then? Thought so.

The United States certainly provoked the Ukraine situation (along with the EU) in trying to overthrow a corrupt, but elected, leader there. We should have left it alone, but we never can leave anything alone.

I've been wondering about the south china sea dispute.

What if we just stayed out and let Vietnam, Phillipines and Japan deal with their territorial disputes with China?

And what about North Korea? What if we just withdrew from South Korea and let China deal with both of them? Its on their border.

Nobody made us the international police. I think we should beef up our military but keep it a bit closer to home.

Raging Soviet boss Nikita Khrushchev in 1956: We will Barry you!

That explains a lot.
