NATO puts 300,000 troops on 'high alert' in readiness for a confrontation with Russia

President Obama's 'Russian reset' policy, which was designed to improve relations with Moscow, has looked increasingly like a policy of appeasement.

We should leave NATO.

If Europe wants to remain free, let them defend themselves. Modern day Russia is not an evil regime.

And it is not our problem. We waste billions of dollars protecting Europe.

If they want freedom, they can fight and pay for it.

Scary thing to think about when you are aware that due to the composition of the Russian Army that any conflict with them would be an armor war and your son is a medic in an armor regiment and will go to war in an obsolete relic from the Vietnam War.

But hey....the pothead bimbo with the dirty blonde dreadlocks drinking her Starbucks while Tweeting on her IPhone while she protests the 1% got free birth control so we have that going for us.

Russia isn't our problem and there is no direct conflict to be had.

We should not risk a war with them, period.

NATO now just tries to antagonize Russia. It can't justify it's existence without drumming the idea that Russia is a threat. NATO is more of an aggressor than RUSSIA. Imagine how they must perceive things. Imagine if Russia conducted massive military drills on our border with Mexico. How would we feel about that? Why is it okay when NATO does it to Russia?

The truth is somewhere in the middle. The U.S.A. is full of hypocrites. We bristle with outrage over the mention of someone hacking into our gov't computers, trying to influence our elections, stealing secrets, etc. However, the U.S. has been playing "god" since the end of WWII. I don't consider Russia to be an evil empire. Unlike the Soviet Union, Russia allowed the Orthodox Church to operate in the country and Putin is supposedly Orthodox himself. What we are seeing is nothing more than countries trying to maximize their own benefits. If you want to get down to brass tacks, then virtually every leader is evil. Everyone aspiring to have power over others is evil. You have to have some level of corruption in your being in order to do whatever it takes to secure that power. Our own leaders have varying levels of evil in their own makeup as well as Putin and other world leaders and legislatures.

It's as if we want everything to be some great moral struggle, probably because we don't have one.
