The West’s sole prerogative is that Russia has no right to self-defense… even when the threat is right on its border
As tensions increase between Moscow and NATO over a buildup of troops near the Donbass, actually initiated by Ukraine, the West’s apparent position is that Russia has no right to self-defense.

Bob Dylan would [...]

Biden’s tough-guy flexing at ‘soulless killer’ Putin would be funny if the consequences weren’t so serious
Joe Biden’s effort to label Vladimir Putin as a “soulless killer” is the latest in a series of fact-free allegations that define US-Russian relations today.

Former President Donald Trump was fond of bragging about how tough he was when it came to Russia. “There’s never been a president as tough on Russia as I hav [...]

American foreign policy destabilizing world safety
I was constantly told as a child that the United States was the greatest nation in the world and never faltered in its dedication to democracy.
