But we cannot and should not forget that Putin is a SOVIET!!!!!
He isn't a lesser Evil.
He is a greater one.
The EU is a wanna be Mini-USSR, but it will crumble under it's own weight just like the real thing did.
But Putin is NOT our friend. He wants the days back when Russia Truly Dominated a Quarter of the Planet.
“that Putin is a SOVIET”
No, he isn’t. He a Russian nationalist.
Today’s Russia is VERY different from Yesterday’s Soviet Union.
Of course he’s not. I don’t mean to suggest he is.
Our current dictator also is Soviet and has killed more actual people than Putin...while bragging how good he’s getting at it... while giving more cash and weapons to terrorist muslims than Putin.
Ultimately we have a choice in this. Invade or sit down and shut up. Personally, I would be miffed if a bunch of Ukrainians stuck their noses into America’s internal conflicts, OR external conflicts. It’s their country to so with as they see fit. If they go Soviet, that’s their call and we will deal with it if we ever have to.
But while this collection of communists in DC runs the show, I do nor one drop of American blood or treasure involved with ANYTHING related to a nuclear armed country because they only EVER MAKE IT WORSE.
You know I like Fallout. I just don’t want to experience it for real anytime soon.
“But Putin is NOT our friend. He wants the days back when Russia Truly Dominated a Quarter of the Planet.”
Why just a quarter? Obama is not a world leader... Putin is the only one out there.
I believe you are right.
The EU is a weak decentralized tyranny.
Putin's Russia is becoming a strong centralized tyranny.
As times change the balance of power changes, and who ever is more powerful globally dominates our media.
The Soviets until the empire crumbled, the EU in the ninties, Islamists in the 2000s, and now it's back to Russia.
And you can see the media begin to turn. It's started over the last few weeks. AP seems to be leading the way.
