At the end of the day what the f--- can Russia do for the U S?

[DemocratSinceBirth]

Purposelfullly bomb hospitals, schools, and other civilian targets so Muslims can hate us and them even more?

1. And in terms of trade? Making rich oil people filthy rich, period... it's literally all they have.

Today one of the shows had clips about how they are heavily investing in arctic forces- troops working w reindeers and sleds- building huge ice breaking ships. They want the Northwest passage and to drill right on top of Canada.

2. We are being played by the Sino-Russian alliance.

The goal is the implosion of the United States.

[malaise]

3. Let me see - did you study World War II?

Didn't they welcome poor American Communists early in the last century?

----------------
Our side bombed Doctors without Borders hospitals in Afghanistan, fugged up the Vietnamese with Agent Orange and used Depleted Uranium in Iraq.

There are no innocents among world powers.

A more objective analysis is required for us all to move forward - and I'm not sure anyone hates Groper Don the Con more than me. All this talk about morality and exceptionalism is bullshit.

A better argument speaks to the benefits of Liberal Democracy and Rule of Law. You see for all its flaws the American people believe in the rule of law and the Constitution and will fight for both.

All are guilty of evil in the name of the interests of the dominant class/the fugging 1%.

6. Very, very well put, malaise.

Guatemala, anyone?

So often, even here, many just refuse to be discerning.

I have wanted to post something ;like what you did.

Something along the lines of, "Well, there is some truth in what Voldemort says."

But I can just imagine that certain clique alerting 'BOING BOING BOIMNG" we have an American hater! BOING BOIMNG!! """

So I didn't..

Thanks,

9. Nothing to do with the morality of the respective parties.

Drumpf wants to forge an alliance with Russia. There is nothing in it for us.

[malaise]

10. The West forged alliances with worse Russians in WWII n/t

[DemocratSinceBirth]

11. Because Hiltler was worse than Stalin.

Why ally with Russia to fight Muslim terrorists and piss off those who are on the fence?

Bannon and Flynn are itching to fight a war against Islam. It is in Putin's interest to have that war too. Why are we even fighting Muslims at all?


I can't even imagine what war against 1.7 billion people who are dispersed all over the globe would like.

4. It's not about the US...

They can make Trump a REAL billionaire

[world wide wally]

7. Thread Winner!

[JaneQPublic]

12. And perhaps they can help Trump by keeping certain blackmail videos in the vault. (nt)

[randr]

5. They are holding twitlers debt

and will allow him to invest in Russian oil once he lifts sanctions and brings down the EPA

[Cracklin Charlie]

8. I am more worried...

About what they can get us to do for them.
