Russia provides arms to Hamas, Hezbollah, Iran, Taliban, Syrians, Al Qaeda, and almost every other anti-western military organization.
President Obama has actually believed that our "disengagement" would cause the opposition to retreat. Thousands of years of world history has shown retreat becomes an endless process, where at best you are left with the choices of the aggressor.
A recent New York City newspaper editorial wrote about weakening the Russian expansion by building our energy independence. This editorial actually talked in some whimsical way about President Obama capturing the moment by setting us on a decades long rebirth of our nation.
Russia has slowly but surely cemented an increasing share of the energy supply. As I wrote in a blog a while back, it would have been alot easier to solve the Syrian situation if we would have done what had to be done at the beginning of this murderous catastrophe.
It has been forgotten in the press that up until recently a Russian battleship was stationed in Cuba. As far I know, it may still be there. If Russia will not back down when we stand up to them, its only a matter of time when we reach the point that they will never back down and guess what, we will.
Just as the IPad changed the outlook for the PC Industry, Russia's long term plan seems to be the resurrection of the Russian Empire, especially under the Obama administration.
