We may be in big trouble if Russia (Putin) has gone rogue.
We have a mental midget in charge here and IMO Putin is probably smarter than the Czars were and he has more raw power than they had as well.
When it comes to pure evil though I’d be leery of saying Putin was worse than our guy...so, yup..we got troubles.
Didn’t killing plane full of Polish officials a few years ago kind of make that obvious?
Russia's still trying to recover from what Josef Stalin did to them as a people- the Russian psyche has yet to recover from the fear and paranoia that Lenin and Stalin created.
Ironically, it appears that Russia is now the Defender of Christianity in the world, while the U.S. has gone totally atheist and mocks Christianity at every turn. However, I'm not moving to Russia for this reason: In the 1930's, a bunch of American Socialists moved to the USSR because they thought they were in the vanguard of civil rights and social justice....when they got there, they realized they were in a Gulag and their dreams were all a lie. They tried to get out, but the U.S. Ambassador didn't want to save a bunch of Communists who turned their back on America and now were whining to them to take them back. Many wound up being executed in the Stalin Purges.
The point is this: Russia SEEMS to be a vanguard of Christianity now, but when you get there it might still be the 3rd world craphole the Socialists found when they turned their back on America in the 1920's and '30's.
Putin senses weakness in Obama, and correctly so.
This has greatly emboldened him, along with our other adversaries around the world which have reached the same conclusion.
When Putin decides to take his newfound confidence up to the next level, there is no way Obama will deter him. Putin knows this and sees a green light ahead to do whatever he wants. The real fear is that others will jump on the same bandwagon against us.
We are unquestionably losing our grip and influence in the world. For Obama, this is Mission Accomplished.
It is not “Russia.”
It is the neo-USSR, or, we should say, the EUSSR.
This is all part of the plan to create an EU controlled by the soviets while the ChiComs control the pacific arena.
These two competing forces will crush America which is already on the way to a third-world status.
And Obammie the Commie is all a part of the plan. This is what he meant when his open mic caught him saying he’d have more flexibility after the election. That flexibility meant in helping Putin to reclaim the satellite nations that went ‘independent’ after the mock break up of the USSR. Keep in mind that 11 of those countries were quietly and quickly taken over by KGB agents. One country did not. Georgia. And we see what the EUSSR did to them.
This is part of Obammie the Commie’s plan in destroying America and imposing a socialist New World Order over the globe.
Two events shattered the US Communists in the 20th Century: The Khrushchev Report, which exposed Stalin's genocide and oppression. The second was the fall of Eastern Europe and the USSR.
Bottom line is that US has hijacked a Comintern vehicle from the Russians who got a Jim Crow America in return there.
Luckily for America, the American spirit still lives underground, unluckily for Russia, communism is still fuming too.
All very well put and true.
We got troubles...right here in River City! Trouble, trouble, trouble!
If by “going rogue” you mean not kowtowing to the Western globalist elites, yes they are. I think Putin is perfectly aware of who is running things here and in Europe and wants no part of it. He may be a thug, but he’s a Russian patriot, and he’s not selling his country out to the NWO.
What kind of Christianity is he defending? It is one he controls completely; it is an alien form of Christianity to the American heritage of Thomas Jefferson and George Mason, which wanted no state control over religion.
What choice do WE have?
We can choose a large heartless Godless bureaucracy run by arrogant mind-numbed morons for the benefit of the party apparatchiks, or we can choose Russia.
This is the first time I have heard of this since it happened. Thank you for the reminder.
The real enemy is islam. With minimal differences Russia and China are as vulnerable as we are.
With a new (and decent) president, I don’t see a problem in doing business with Russia. We simply have to ACCEPT that Russia will do what they feel they need to do in their backyard, and perhaps we can TAKE A HINT and do the same here.
So you think that because Obama is rogue that Putin is not rogue? In that case, you don’t oppose rogue you just oppose Obama. I suggest we should be against both of these statist, narcissistic loons.
The only religion Putin supports is the Russian Orthodox church, which is the de facto state religion in Russia. Other Christians are ruthlessly suppressed, including Catholics and evangelicals. Just today, Kyiv Patriarchate Church attacked in Crimea http://khpg.org/index.php?id=1401631140
You choose treason if you choose Putin. I oppose them both.
