We don’t understand Russia. They have a self sustaining economy. Not super rich like we are. With our endless trading partners. But can we really get in war in a big way, cutting off trading with China?

"But can we really get in war in a big way, cutting off trading with China?"

The truth is that our military leaders and civilian academic strategists don't want a high intensity conflict. They've been preaching against it for decades and saying that it wouldn't happen again. They narrowed their focus to light intensity conflict long ago with the assumption that only small factions of terrorists or rebels might disrupt trade or energy production. They like the trade regime with the imbalances against U.S. labor. They've enjoyed the influx of more subservient, tolerant labor from poorer, more corrupt countries.

But some of the eastern nations like Russia and China have been indulging in military force buildups and actions to take more natural resources, real estate and human resources from other nations. The question is, "When should we try to stop their expansions?" We won't wait until they are ready take total control of us and our countries.
