    Not the first time I've noted here that we're a large nation

    It's amazing that now some American conservatives portray Putin as a
    good guy, Russia as an admirable country, communism as a good system,
    Ukraine as nonexistent. 1960s Republicans must be rolling in their graves.

    I haven't seen any of those people. I suspect it's just nonsense from
    the mass media loons that Krygowski follows.

    Would that be like the "Americans" that ran away to Canada to avoid
    serving in the military?

    I see... citizens in the U.S. have the right to ignore anything the
    government does if they don't agree with it?
    An interesting theory... does that include not paying taxes that they
    don't agree with? Or ignoring any law that they don't agree with?

    But that aside, has Moscow become an enemy, as the title of the
    article seems to indicate?




    Woithout Russia we would have lost WW II and Frank would be happily speaking German now.

    More the other way around. Without US arms, materiel
    support, logistics, oil and food the Soviets were f**ked.

    Not just Russia, but Europe too.

    Well, yes but we didn't shed US soldiers' blood on the
    Eastern Front.

    Even before the United States entered World War II in December 1941,
    America sent arms and equipment to the Soviet Union to help it defeat
    the Nazi invasion. Totaling $11.3 billion, or $180 billion in today’s
    currency, the Lend-Lease Act of the United States supplied needed
    goods to the Soviet Union from 1941 to 1945 in support of what Stalin
    described to Roosevelt as the “enormous and difficult fight against
    the common enemy — bloodthirsty Hitlerism.”

    Interesting. There's much going on under the fire and smoke that
    hasn't been made public.




    Oddly enough it was the Ukrainians that started the war by killing Russians that had legally bought farms in the Ukraine mostly out of pure hatred for anything Russia. While surely the Russians over the years earned that hatred, Putin warned the
    Ukrainians severeal times to stop murdering ethnic Russians in the Ukraine.

    But there are too many people that see the Ukraine as a way to wear Russia'a constant threat to Europe down to a manageable siae.

    Wasn the Ukraine actually a part of the USSR at one time?
