Russian Factor?

[Kathianne]

Ok, all the rhetoric about Wikileaks and hacking aside, what's up with a new Cold War? Or would it be more than cold?

Iran, Syria, are the proxies right now-if Cold.

Obama is ratcheting it all somewhat with talk of 'proportional retaliation' vis a vis technological capabilities.

Russian media has been very involved in warning about electing Hillary and telling their people to prepare for war if she wins.

So, if Hillary wins, looks like from start would be back to Cold War. If Trump wins, Russia would assume he owes them.

Wonderful.

It would not be cold for long, I fear.

I think Hillary is a war hawk and the Left will be disappointed.

Russia has been VERY active in upgrading their military capability. That, and while nobody was looking, they managed to occupy Crimea and parts of the Ukraine. They have their sights on the Baltics as well. They are pretty confident that neither NATO nor the UN (never mind the US) will intervene as long as they keep their actions at a low enough level so as not to trigger Article 5. For more insight into what they are up to, google "Russian New Generation Warfare"..... interesting stuff.

I don't think Russia's moving of their ICBMs to their borders should be taken lightly.

Hillary is a paper tiger. She talks tough, but lies and exaggerates.

She would no more stand up to Syria, Iran, or Russia than Obama has.

Oh yeah...didn't stand up to Libya, either.

Interesting, though, how Obama has Putin so pissed.

Look here. Please. I understand many of the members of this forum are intentionally ignoring most, if not all of my posts, and threads. I also understand how so many simply avoid acknowledging most of ANYTHING I say here because of my inability to LIE, and my need to be pragmatic, rather than pretending I want anyone to like me.
As for this entire RUSSIAN game being played. I lay all of that on Obama's lap, and Putin knows he can watch Obama continue to make a fool out of himself, and Our nation.
At the same time. All of the POLITICAL BS being stirred from the CLINTON-PEDESTO camp of LIES, blaming the RUSSIANS, AND TRUMP...for all the LEAKS from Wiki....is nothing but a huge RUSE to distract attention from the actual FACTS being released about the LAW BREAKING CLINTON'S, the DNC, and most of the Democrats in Congress who are SELFISH, ILLITERATE, STUPID, and SOCIALISTS who want to destroy our nation.

For those who take the time to actually read this. YOU KNOW I AM TELLING THE TRUTH, and ONLY THE TRUTH....SO HELP ME GOD! Aboutime
