I do not think you know anything that you are talking about. Look at past European history. Look at the 1930’s. and see what German aggression ment for the world. What is happening now is very much like that.
I may not. This has to be pieced together from what little is “reported”. Nothing much of what happened under Obama was covered, but somehow the Democrats made Ukraine a center of operations and money laundering. So much so, that made up charges for trying to stop it were assigned to Trump, locking him out on Ukraine.
The Steele Dossier appears to have used intelligence from worldwide sources to do the same thing with Russia. Hillary’s contacts in NATO are the best I can come up with.
I don’t doubt NATO’s vital role in history, but I think it has been co-opted.
What I saw, under Trump, was that all of Europe was happily buying energy from Russia and at bargain basement prices. NATO was sponging off of America, with Germany supposedly defending NATO countries using a stockpile of dead GDR weapons. There was a lot that Trump could have done to rectify this, but his hands were tied by what Hillary and others had done.
This is not the 1930s and the players are all moved around, so trying to say that Putin is Hitler is a stretch, in my opinion. The events in Ukraine, in fact, jarred me to see a “country” with nuclear power plants, and formerly nuclear weapons, in such a state. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a country with such things that could not defend them. It’s a mess of the Soviet Union’s making.
Anyway, that was my reasoning, for what it’s worth.
