Impending war with Russia
As I illustrated in my previous topic detailing the growing conflict in Syria and Ukraine, it appears now as if Russia has more or less jumped the proverbial shark not just by sending warships to block the U.S. into going into Syria and battling several very real threats that are getting out of control, including Assad and ISIL, [1][2][3] but by sending troops, special forces of all groups, into the Ukraine to capture key manufacturing and industrial areas. [1][2][3][4] Largely considered by the international community to still be Ukraine territory, more or less Russia is in control of these territories, with it's military guarding them, and the only way to recapture these areas of Ukraine's country to be in direct conflict with Russia. It's a horrifying prospect, indeed.
NATO is on alert as they fear Russia may decide to try and take over more territory, and the world is now tensing for what might be the biggest conflict since WWII. [1][2][3][4] The illusion of peace between Russia and NATO is now shattered; the thin veil which kept the war cold between us has now fell, if not been burned, as Mutually Assured destruction from the threat of nuclear warfare is no longer a deterrent for war. With the leaders of Russia doing insane and psychotic things, we are now on the brink of a war that could spell the wide spread destruction of large parts of the world; even if it's not done over Ukraine, or over Syria, Russia most likely will continue more and more, until there is something we are not willing to let them take. Russia has sent bomber aircraft closer to the U.S. than during even the cold war, making this worse than any time during that period. [1][2][3][4]
In the meantime, the U.S. has begun bombing in Syria, and placed sanctions on Russia. While these sanctions were designed largely to be put on rich people, Russia's government once again overreacted by, strangely enough, placing sanctions on themselves, preventing food from entering their country. Russia's very strategy seems to be at the moment, please stand still or we will be shooting ourselves. Or, perhaps, more aptly, Russia's government is threatening it's own people to be annihilated by the U.S., be it in nuclear war and it's soldier's who are largely blind to what's going on (although many are starting to realize what is happening, no thanks to the propaganda control) who they obviously don't seem to care about. This is a startling turn of events, as it only seems to be escalating.
While Russia denies it's troops being in Ukraine supporting the rebels [1][2][3], they also said the same thing in Crimea; now admitting they are there, but that they are on vacation [1][2][3], and giving them medals, it's fairly obvious that the two-face Russia is putting up is a blatant lie, and with their past actions would make it difficult if ever possible to reconcile with Russia fully after this point, especially while still having Crimea under their control. With increasingly flimsy excuses, which still paint Russia in a bad light if they are to be believed (how would someone take it if American soldiers invaded their country, took all their weapons and guns with them, and started bombing them on their vacations, and then were given medals for it, encouraging the behavior?), it's difficult to find a way that would make this situation end well.
The question, for the moment, ED, is what do you think we should do?
As the world edges closer to a god awful war, what are your thoughts on the issue?
