Now that I have had more time to process this lecture, the main message is that "a peaceful post-war Europe is a myth," even after WWII, Holland, Belgium, France, Spain, all of these countries learned nothing from WWII. They all kept trying to be imperial powers. They murdered millions, after WWII. It took countless lost lives across the globe for these countries to lose their imperial wars. Google "Belgium Congo," these horrors happened in the 1950's - carried out by a now considered peaceful European country. Each of these countries had to lose their own imperial ambitions, by losing major wars. That is when they became "normal" and peaceful, and Europe could begin. This is what must happen to Russia now. We cannot decide their next system of government. But if we want a chance at a "normal" European Russia, then Imperialist Russia must lose their last imperial battle, in Ukraine. This is the only path to "normal" Russia that is not threatening the planet with Armageddon every day. A Russia which finally lives up to the promise of its amazing people.
