I do wonder how much our gas import from Russia is helping us keep the peace.
I'm really afraid that high gas prices would be the tipping point when US and EU would turn from funding internal revolution in Russia (figures like Navalny) to a hot war.
Europe always needed and wanted our resources. Just read German documents from WWII: only part of it was hatred and desire to genocide Russians. The most serious motivation was to plunder Russian natural resources.
We don't need Europe. We have the largest country on Earth. We have all the natural resources we need. I'm tired of all this EU/US bullshit of "Russian aggression". Especially coming from a country that is eternally at war with all the world (USA).
- thehappypm 5y agoWWII? You mean the war that Russia started, allied with Germany?
- vetinari 5y agoNow that's pretty nasty rewriting of history. Did you forget that it was Drang nach Osten in the first place?
- thehappypm 5y agoIf anyone is rewriting history, it’s the person making Russia an innocent victim of WWII. Russia wanted conquest of Poland and enabled the blitzkrieg.
- anticodon 5y agoThen you must also remember that it was Poland that allied with Hitler before anyone else, in hope that Germany will help it to attack Russia. But Hitler had other plans. Why you always forget about this part of the history? I guess it's not illustrated well in your media blaming Russia for all of your miseries.
- vetinari 5y agoYou cannot take anyone seriously, who writes "conquest of Poland". Do they even know, what territory they are talking about and how Poland conquered it 20 years earlier? The same Poland, who had their government officials attending NSDAP conferences.
- thehappypm 5y agoYou are denying the conquest of the sovereign nation of Poland in World War II?
- vetinari 5y agoConquest by whom? Certainly not by USSR. By the time USSR took their territories back - are you still forgetting, that Poland had conquered their territories mere 20 years earlier? - Poland didn't exist anymore and the Polish government was in exile in Romania. There was nothing to conquest. USSR took back what was taken from them. And let's not forget that Pilsudski government, while it lasted, was fascist, just like the Germans. They played a game and they lost. Unlike Austria and Czechoslovakia, which were also thrown over the board for the Germany, they were not innocent here and had their own imperial ambitions (did you forget that they took their part in partitioning of Czechoslovakia, just months earlier?)
- thehappypm 5y agoYour revisionism game is strong, pal.
- vetinari 5y agoSaid by the guy who claimed that USSR started WW2. Seriously, go read some books about WW2 and stop making fool of yourself in the public.
