re: Russia has world war on it's mind

When you have a military-industrial complex, not just that of the U.S. but half the world, the best way to sell more bullets, bandages and butter is to help create as big a war as possible. Go back and look at the history of WW1, and then think about all the military actions since the Korean war that are basically unnecessary, to the defense of the United States.

While it is kind of amusing watching the peace-nik leftist doves turn into hawks with the flip of a switch, when they and the jingoist nationalists agree on bombing or drone striking practically anything that moves when it is an ocean away from us, you have to wonder what it will take to instill any kind of sanity in our political system.
