The Madness of Russophobia

Chronicles ^ | Feb. 2022 | Srdja Trifkovic

[Yashcheritsiy]

No way dude - if we had Adam Kinzinger leading the charge, we’d take Moscow in two weeks!!

[rellic]

One has to wonder how the Mongols pulled it off?

[Arcadian Empire]

I am for all of the good people in Russia.

I am against Putin.

[Seruzawa]

Obviously a Putinista. /s

[Renfrew]

Is Russophobia justified?

Well for 600 years Russians have invaded, enslaved, and massacred anyone unlucky enough to border them. No other nation has been so relentlessly vicious.

[Republican in occupied CA]

Kind of like the official Russian propaganda, but not as well written.

[Campion]

Washington’s urge to challenge and confront Russia is rationally inexplicable.

So is Moscow's insistence on scapegoating the West for all of its internal problems.

[central_va]

My hunch is that Russia is on the verge of a coup d’etat or a civil war. To say the Ukraine war is unpopular is a gross understatement.

[oblomov]

Yes, being against the foreign policy idiocy of Hillary Clinton, Victoria “cookie lady” Nuland, John McCain, and Adam Kinzinger makes one a Putin supporter. /s

[Codeflier]

What’s this? Sanity? A deviation from the deep state narrative fully supported by many on FR. I will save the Biden bootlickers on this site some time - this guy must be a “Putinista” like they accuse me of being.

[oblomov]

Hahaha. There’s a few of us still here.

[dfwgator]

I am for all of the good people in Russia. I am against Putin.

Right there with you.

[Verginius Rufus]

I think the author was a publicist/propagandist for Radovan Karadzic during the war in Bosnia in the 1990s.

[Republican in occupied CA]

None of them probably like cancer, headaches, or traffic jams either, so you are a Hillary supporter if you don’t dislike those things.

[Codeflier]

Geopolitical positions are by choice, not cancer. Sounds like you are fully aligned with the Democrats on this.

[sushiman]

I am one .

[BipolarBob]

No other nation has been so relentlessly vicious.

Is China missing from your history book?

[oblomov]

Don’t play rhetorical games, please.

If you advocate the same foreign policy as Adam Kinzinger & John McCain, then you’re something other than a foreign policy realist and a conservative when it comes to military intervention.

[Jim Robinson]

"The termination of oil and gas contracts with all countries which join current or proposed future sanctions against Moscow would be a parallel demonstration of economic power. Last but not least, the Russians may be the ones to indefinitely suspend the Nord Stream 2 pipeline project rather than allow Germany’s aggressive new foreign minister to use it as a political trump card."

I think this fallback plan has fizzled. And I believe China has already said nyet to backing Putin.

Putin is now going to be more desperate than ever. Pray he does not take the entire world down with him.

I think he's been on stage waaay to long and should retire to enjoy what's left of his twilight years. Life is short.
