You mean just like the United States?

"Oh we don't like Gaddafi's government so we are going to arm the rebels and bombs away over Tripoli because Tripoli does not have a proper western style government."

"Let's go to Somalia together to force western values on them at the point of gun."

So poor little Russia can go do the same? Bullshit.
Putin must be sanctioned into oblivion, his crimes against Russia and her people revealed, and his fellow nutbag corrupt fucktard buddies disabused of the notion that they can seize bits of their neighbors.

I want to do the impossible, and stop a nuclear war and Vladimir Putin. He won't shame NATO or America, and the world won't burn because of his nationalistic lunacy.

Not yet, comrade. If I was President of Russia Kazakhstan would be my next target because it is big and surrounded by anti-western nations who are unlikely to intervene.

This to me is grounds for all of the Nato countries to completely cease all economic trade and any other international programs with Russia. If this is how Putin wants his country to be, then we should politically and economically isolate them and see how they do. In fact, take some of those tens of billions and give it to the Ukraine, in effect tell Russia to take a long walk off a short pier.

You can only get away with so much for so long, whether your nation has nukes or doesn't have nukes. At some point, people are going to get fed up and take action.

It's like what happened during World War II. Hitler kept testing the patience of the soon-to-be Allied powers by invading nation after nation, but once he invaded Poland, they got fed up with it.

That is always the risk, but that's why I would focus on the central Asian nations after I took Ukraine because the west is unlikely to intervene there. I think another good strategy would be to throw Assad under the bus and fund ISIS. Eventually a joint invasion of Iran could take place. America hates Iran so I don't think they would go to war to save them either.

Fund terrorists who'll likely stir up a 3rd Chechen War? At least he has that much sense...maybe.

yes genius, fund a terrorist group when you have a fairly large minority that happens to be the same demographic as said group and you have fought with in the past. that always works.

It was because France and the UK had a secret alliance with Poland in the event that it was attacked. Hitler had a personal score to settle with France over the Treaty of Versailles but he never wanted war with Great Britain, from the very beginning he wanted war with the USSR and Poland was just in the way.

ISIS doesn't operate in Chechnya, and they would probably agree to ignore Russian territories if they get to expand into Iraq, Syria and possibly beyond into S.A. and Egypt. ISIS should be the vicious beast Russia funds and unleashes upon the west. If this was a strategy game I would own it.

Yes, I know that France and the UK had an alliance with Poland. He tried to test their patience, and it didn't work.

Considering that Putin is slightly unhinged and in charge of a Nuclear Superpower, which he operates like a criminal mafia - would it still be unjustified to contemplate putting Polonium-210 in his teacup at the next round of 'peace negotiations' ? After all, what goes around, comes around.
