This is personally an opinion I have fostered for some time in some respects...that since, I'd say the Serbian crisis, a new Cold War has been brewing...accelerated by actions of both Russia and the US. To most countries though, Russia has fallen off the scope, it's all China, Korea and the Middle East now. In recent years there has been a small rise in Russian militarisation, not a rise such as a realm of new vehicles and manpower being put into service...no...that would just create alarm in the wrong places....but carefully planned exercises, one involving a full test of the nuclear ability IIRC, overseen by Putin himself, and a more aggressive posture towards its ex-WP neighbours. I can't see a return to the days of the 1960s though, Russia may forceably annex several nearby neighbours but it won't get far...Europe still remembers the days of the Cold War, and the reaction will be quick and bloody. But...now we are at a precarious point...the nations are divided, the powerful military forces tied up far away from the European battlefield...if ever there was a time to strike...now would be it. BUT Russia is not that stupid

There's no doubt about it though, through some very careful and clever movements, Putin has given Russia a greater hold over Europe than it had in the 1990s, particularly energy-wise.

It could be a 'Cold War' in more than one sense of the term....

According to the Timetraveller who claims he lives 50yrs in the future, the USA and RUSSIAN will be best friends and go to war as allies in the last war which is suppose to be within 12yrs. :hmm:

I read that too, and Russia will nuke the US in 2015, so I am not sure what you read. Russia will not be able to stop the US, and will nuke the US to remove the US Government. Better get some good sunblock! They will also nuke China, and also get nuked in return. Apparently 3 Bill people get to die in the chaos.

But obviously parallel universes do not play out the same since we are supposed to have Civil war in the US right now. So obviously he is full of BS, or things will not quite be as predicted.

Yep - I agree. The only way to accomplish this is to destabilize the US to such a degree that it is much less strong. Hmm, that other communist thread seems to show them doing that!!!?? Ah oh!

-S

PS. Might as well give up the Hummer now Elite! You won't get to keep it in the near future.

Dah! Welcome with open arms, comrades, the Neo-Soviet Union, which sounds somewhat like a return of the Oldo-Soviet Union. :hmm:

Oberon · 03-23-07, 11:50 AM

So...now's not the best time to invest in a property in the Fulda Gap area then I take it?

SUBMAN1 · 03-23-07, 03:10 PM

Russia is selling Mach 3 anti ship missiles to Iran and China it seems to stir the pot. They are probably just dying to have one of these countries use one against a carrier.

1. aint gonna be no commies, just putin in power with capitalist system, no communist government, and since capitalism worked so well for us and got em money

then russia will be even stronger

2. ill blow it up then see it fall into someone eleses hands...

Penelope_Grey · 03-23-07, 03:35 PM

Capitalism is just that, capitalising.

Its exploitation of many people by a few people. Its grossly unfair and I personally see all jobs having equal worth in any society, to my mind, the binman is just as important as the Teacher, or the Doctor, or the Policeman. Or any of the other higherups.

Having said that, a true system of communism would never work in a million years because people are inherently selfish always wanting more. Not wanting to settle for less. There is nothing wrong with wanting to better oneself, but its wrong to do so at the expense of others.
