Well, the Russians are a convenient threat, but they are compatible with us (in terms of views), reasonable, and educated people. Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and Turkey are the real enemies of the Western civilization and I can't believe we allow them to be our allies! I personally don't know much abut North Korea, and although it's definitely a threat, I feel that all this is just a show.
- cpursley 11y agoI agree. The Anti-Russia rhetoric is silly.
- nikolay 11y agoNot just silly - it's criminal! It's pushed by cliques that benefit from increasing aggression!
- noselfrighteous 11y agoIsh. How much do you know about the Russian cultural psyche? I'm not disagreeing that the paranoia around American<->Russian relations isn't massively overblown, but I think you underestimate the aspirations of the Russian ruling class, and the degree to which the working class would bend to those aspirations if called upon (forced to).
- nikolay 11y agoI'm Bulgarian, I know a lot of Russians, I've been raised with the Russian culture during communism, and I've been living 16 years in California. Russia is a powerful country, but I think China is a much bigger threat to the US than Russia!
