It’s a silly question.

Of course it is. If we could normalize relations with Germany, Japan, China, and Vietnam....is it possible to coexist with Russia?

Probably not. Our leaders are globalist and are now enforcing militant atheism and championing every kind of sodomy they can find. Russia is oriented towards the nation state and is so far unwilling to be an administrative zone of western bankers and their government. They have also been fighting against western perversions hitting their society and are more christian friendly as a government as contrasted to our government. Also, our main goal is finding ways to bring Russian oil and gas under western and particularly EU control. They are very opposed to this. and this doesn’t even scratch the surface of money to be made if the cold war worsens.

It sounds crazy, but I am coming to believe that many in our government and a few of our Generals would relish the idea of a shooting war with Russia. They are convinced it would be a few sharp and short dogfights, or a Serbia campaign and then all will be good, and they will slink home and do what we say from then on. It’s delusional, but i think a lot of them are spoiling for this and think it is impossible that it would go nuclear.

If anything I see Russia getting closer to China.

No...Russia is populated almost entirely by semi-literate cheap vodka guzzling knuckledraggers who,IIRC,have an average lifespan somewhere around 55 years.

Totally misleading Pew polls. The truth is 37% of all Americans attended church on a weekly basis vs 8% of Russians go to church regularly.

“no more than about one-in-ten Russians said they attend religious services at least once a month. The share of regular attenders (monthly or more often) was 2% in 1991, 9% in 1998 and 7% in 2008. This suggests that although many more Russians now freely identify with the Orthodox Church or other religious groups, they may not be much more religiously observant than they were in the recent past, at least in terms of attendance at religious services.”

...Sen. John McCain, calling Putin “an evil man”...

How ironic.

“the so-called Arab Spring as a great leap forward for democracy.”

That worked out real well didn’t it.
