What on earth has gotten into Russia?????

Question

First they invade little Georgia (during a time when we are thoroughly ensconced in Iraq and possibly Iran), then they threaten us and Poland with military hostilities because of the base we are building in Poland. Russia says we're only doing it now because Russia is tied up in Georgia (but it was ok for them to invade Georgia when we were tied up in the Middle East).

What the h**l is Russia thinking???

Answer 1

When the victim is being chocked they lash out in any way possible . Look at the bigger picture . Who is starting wars all over the world ? Who has called for a new world order ? Who threatened to use Nukes in the middle east ?

Answer 2

The answer has been in front of us for a long time (since 1963) but no one cares to heed it.

It is time to look again at some of the communist goals:

Capture one or both of the political parties in the US. (which party do you think they infiltrated?)

Use technical decisions of the courts to weaken basic American institutions, by claiming their activities violate civil rights.  (ACLU)

Infiltrate the press and gain control of key positions in radio, TV and motion pictures.  Gain controll of all student newspapers.

Get control of the schools. Use them as transmission belts for socialism and current Communist propaganda. Soften the curriculum. Get control of teachers' associations. Put the party line in textbooks.

 

Use student riots too foment public protests against programs or organizations which are under Communist attack.

Infiltrate and gain control of more unions. (Hollywood, The Media, Teachers, Transportation, Writers (books, textbooks, newspapers, etc), Recording Artists,Radio Broadcasters - Union

T.V. Hosts - Letterman, Leno, Jon Stewart - Union

Animators & Cartoonists - Union

Screenwriters, scripts, playwrights for stage & screen - Union (the content of every thing you see on stage & screen and hear on radio and TV has union bias).

Infiltrate and gain control of big business (mortgage lending, loan sharking, banking, etc.

Infiltrate the churches and replace revealed religion with "social" religion. Discredit the Bible and emphasize the need for intellectual maturity, which does not need a "religious crutch."

Eliminate prayer or any phase of religious expression in schools on the grounds that it violates the principle of "separation of church and state." ACLU

Promote the UN as the only hope for mankind. If its charter is rewritten, demand that it be set up as a one world government, with its own independent armed forces.(The UN is useless)

Eliminate all laws governing obscenity by calling them "censorship" and a violation of free speech and free press. (Reminder-the fall of the Roman Empire)

 

Break down cultural standards of morality by promoting pornography and obscenity in books, magazines, motion pictures, radio, and TV.

Present homosexuality, degeneracy and promiscuity as "normal, natural, healthy." (Why is Britney Spears still popular, she's not even a good mother).

Continue giving Russia access to the U.S. Patent Office

Answer 3

First Russia didn't invade Georgia unprovoked, we really to have become ignorant of what is going on around the world.

Only in the US media perpetuated that c**p, everyone around the world knew what is going on.  

It was Georgia backed by US that attacked S.O. killing many civilians. Russia had warned Georgia against any such move and were already prepared. Georgia simply thought it can take advantage from attention over Olympics.

S.O. has been independent since 1992, they have made it clear they have no intention of joining Georgia. S.O. soldiers fought with Russia against Georgia. Majority of S.O. have Russian citizenship.

Where does this misconception comes from that Russia is slightest bit worried about US. Have you been listening to Russian response to hysteric Bush rhetoric. I think Russian response is clear. US and Bush literally have no influence over Russia or Europe. Literally!

So how would uncle Sam feel if Russia puts it's defense shield in Cuba. So US wants to increase its sphere of influence on the expense of Russia bit wants Russia to stay quiet.

To make it clear Europe does not have a same stance against Russia as US. They have a completely different approach. There is no need to provoke a second cold war, b/c US wants its imperial sphere enlarged.

Latin American countries are increasingly anti-American. Ecuador has asked US troops to leave its country, last US base in the Americas. If US pushes Russia will fill this vacuum.

I suggest Bush paying more attention at home than political wrangling where he doesn't belong. You do know any conflict as Iraq would mean collapse of US economy. US is already borrowing money from China to pay for Iraq war.

Don't be in the illusion that media feeds us that US can take on Russia. Putin has revolutionized Russian army and defense. You also forget China will always back Russia. Europe has no intention of getting involved in this.

I seriously suggest you looking into alternative sources for you information. Media in the US is dead and obsolete.

"By declaring the Caucasus, a region that is thousands of miles from the American continent, a sphere of its 'national interest,' the United States made a serious blunder."

Answer 4

World domination, maybe? Read about the conflict at Newser. They do a good job of summarizing what exactly is going on.

Answer 5

Too much vodka and not enough intelligence/discretion/diplomacy.

Answer 6

Now Russians are considering seriously when to build a missle launch and defense system at Cuba to return Uncle Sam a  favor of building his at Ukraine and Czech.Like Confusius once said "It is not polite to only receiving without giving"

Answer 7

Russia ISN'T thinking. They still want to be the big "red bear".

Putin is an old communist hiding in sheeps clothing. He preaches democracy but shows otherwise.

Answer 8

Putin, the guy who really runs Russia, is trying to rebuild Russia's former empire.

Answer 9

What is Russia thinking?  If Russia built missile bases in Cuba, Mexico, Canada and Panama, what the "h**l" would we do?  Oh, wait.  They DID build missile bases in Cuba in 1960s.

Think before asking.

Answer 10

Putin has always scared me. If he isn't the next Hitler, then he may well be the Anit - Christ...
