re: Why does Russia have to be our enemy?

England.
London is the heart of globalism.
England has always used the splitter strategy of keeping its rivals weak. Go back to the Civil War. Who funded the South?
They think that if the russians feel enough pain, they can break them up into smaller pieces and eventually scoop them into the EU financial network.
This is about trade and banking.
So the big bad is the Bank of London.

Fun fact: in the Civil War the North was supported by Russian war ships. The price for that support was 7MM- laundered through the transfer of Alaska to mask the alliance.

It's honestly surprising that Russia is viewed as our mortal enemy, and Mexico isn't. Mexico is basically controlled by terrorist groups.. at nearly every level.
Mexico is sending tons of drugs into our country that have killed countless Americans. A lot of Mexican citizens are living under constant fear and oppression.
One of the narratives is that we need to attack Russia in order to free the poor Russian people from Putin's oppression.
I mean, frick. We've nearly that same situation just south of us.. except it's unelected terror groups running things, instead of a singular dictator. Except, Mexico is impacting our entire country with the flow of drugs into our country.

quote:all of these countries capitulated. Germany, Japan, Great Britain, and Spain all have American military bases stationed in their country. Like Rome when they let the Ptolemaic dynasty still run Egypt but had legionaries garrisoned in Alexandria. They are American owned lands for all intents and purposes. We don’t have troops in Mexico because we don’t have to. As evidence by big daddy Trump laying down the law and telling them we will send in troops there if we want too whether they like it or not since it’s close enough to the homeland.
Germany is no longer our enemy, nor is Japan, Italy, Great Britain, Spain, Mexico.

Ask Putin that question. How about
curbing the cyberWarfare conducted
by the SVR and FSB in the U.S..
And stop invading and threatening our European allies. Or stop meddling in the Middle East and Africa, and elsewhere against American interests.

You could ask all of those same questions of the US. Should Russia fund a proxy war against us?

Their geography demands that they be assholes. Expansion is really their only means of self-protection. It goes far beyond political ideology.

Russia is our enemy because Russia wants to be our enemy.
Traditionally, we had fairly good relationships with Czarist Russia. They sold us Alaska because they preferred us on their eastern border over the British.
After the Czar was overthrown, we sided with the Whites over the communist.
The communist won, and declared war on every non-communist government on Earth, including America.
They allied with Germany’s National Socialist (NAZIs) against the Western Democracies.
They lied to FDR and forced the nations they occupied after WW2 to form subservient communist governments.
They urged N Korea to invade S Korea, and Russian pilots flew MiG 15s out of China and shot down American planes killing Americans.
Wrong!
Twice, Korea and during the red revolution.
I agree.
Unfortunately Russia under Putin does not.
They have formed a military alliance with countries that hate and oppose us, N Korea, Iran, and China.
They have joined an economic alliance that opposes America economically. BRICS: Brazil, Russia, India, China, South Africa, Egypt, Ethiopia, Indonesia, Iran and the United Arab Emirates.
It is militarily aggressive in the Middle East, Chechnya, Georgia, Ukraine, and Africa.
It has invaded its neighbors 5 times since the fall of the USSR. Neutral nations of Sweden and Finland joined NATO out of fear of future Russian aggression.
The fiction of Russia as some poor, oppressed, and aggrieved Christian nation is believed only by those with deep seated irrational biases!

Which one of our European "allies" has Russia invaded? And don't say Ukraine, because they have never been an ally.

There are many reasons we have not to like Russia and there are many reasons they have to not like us. We have over 30 bases and Garrisons in Europe and Asia. We have not given them a reason to trust us and we don’t trust them. We haven’t ever been friends with Russia. We supported Finland in the 3 wars against Russia before WWII.
1. They don’t like us. We are on their unfriendly watch list
2. They are close allies with Syria, Iran, North Korea, China, Venezuela, Palestine, and Pakistan. They also support Yemen
3. Support of the Taliban
-Provided money and guns to the Taliban over the past 25 years.
-One of the first countries to remove them from terrorist watch list
-A Taliban government delegation has been taking part in the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum. Russia has Invested billions in Afghanistan
4. They are friends with Maduro in Venezuela. They have signed over 300 agreements and yesterday they signed an agreement on intelligence gathering and counterespionage efforts
5. They have established military bases in 7 former USSR countries most of them are not wanted. 4 of the bases are without the countries consent(2 in Georgia, 1 in Moldova, and Ukraine).
6. Similar to the US and Saudi Arabia they have a big influence on world oil prices

Both are more closely aligned with Moscow and China than the US. Georgia did commit assistance in Afghanistan, but government and and attitudes heavily shifted back toward Moscow. And Moldova, the citizens practically pine for the old communist days.
Very, very loose definition of ally.

I don’t even think Putin is a bad guy. I think he does the small evil for the greater good type of thing.
Compared to these globalist satanic cult scumbags, Putin is a good man.

Georgia sent over 2,000 troops to Iraq and sent troops to Afghanistan through NATO as International Security Assistance Force.
Russia still has unfriendly troops in Moldova. Moldova has condemned the Russian invasion and over 1.5 million refugees have went through Moldova or stayed.
