  1. You're not wrong.

  2. Stop calling it Cold War 2. NATO has a Firm stance that forces in Europe are reassurance against possible separatism extremists and Russia isn't considered a threat. There is no Cold War. Just reassurance.

  3. +APolishPlayer he can have a pony picture if he wants, but if he speaks the truth it will be recognized. I hate brony people, but he is right. Lastly, no one likes Clinton either. We all know that Bernie is the only logical solution. Anyone else will continue pushing against Russia and risk the survival of the planet.

  4. ***** last time i checked, North Korea was dubbed the US's absolute number 1 threat. Russia is not, and hasn't been since the real cold war. However, the same can't be said about Turkey,  NATO member, who insists on a direct confrontation with Russia, which could potentially end up forcing all of the NATO members either kick Turkey out of NATO for reckless behavior, or activate Article 5. I highly doubt that NATO would initiate Article 5 however, as a direct war between NATO and Russia would be catastrophic. I do hope that Turkey listens to the US request to calm the fuck down and not steam up an already heated situation between them and Russia in regards to Syria. As for the Ukraine, the most we are doing there, are training forces in the Baltic States. Nothing is wrong with that. Russia see's NATO presence as provocative, but the reality remains, NATO wouldn't be training it's allie if they didn't annex Crimea, a region of Ukraine that's pretty close to NATO allies with similar political standing.

  6. Kakto Tak Not necessarily. It's no longer about nations having nukes, really, except for North Korea and Iran, nations that have an unstable leadership that if they ever possessed a nuke, would pose a great danger to the entire world. However, there's no stopping nations that already have them, like Russia, and US and so on, so fourth. Then, the only fear remains if one of those nations are unstable... or rather, dumb enough, to actually use a nuke. The US, having already dropped nukes on Japan to end World War 2, was already internationally condemned, even though it seemed logical at the time, it was a disgusting move. To use even more powerful nukes now? Un-thinkable. However, the First Cold War happened more because Stalin got emotional about the end of World War 2. He felt that even after gaining a separate surrender treaty signed by Germany, and seeing the US hit Japan with a weapon as powerful as the nuke, that he'd been cheated out of something. So he pursued just that, more powerful nukes, at the same time as following Hitler's footsteps to claim large portions of land, under which was called the Warsaw Pact, hidden behind the Iron Curtain.
