Britain vs Russia a message

[DodgyAgent]

USA to the rescue again. Just like Iraq, Nicaragua, Guatemala, etc...

2 words for you: Monroe Doctrine

Fair point. My own position is that I am suspicious of Russias agenda and that I am extremely worried about the prospect of WW3. The USAs competence in dealing politically with International affairs is also worrying.

Incompetence

Say what you mean Dodgy.

Americas attitude on international affairs has always been "What's in it for us?"
Iraq for example. How many yank contracting companies have made billions?

If there is a major conflict aka WWW III ( now that is a good Doom thread ) it will be between the big ones ie. US vs Russia etc , NATO members like Romania , Poland and most smaller NATO members will definitely try to preserve neutrality. For one they could never defend against attack from Russia ( they simply don't have the technology) , secondly their armies are so insignificant they can hardly make a difference and they would remain neutral.

PS: WWW III = World Wide War III

More so than Hitler?

I suppose with people like you that even if the Russians teamed up with Al Quaeda and nuked Paris it would all be the Americans fault. Quite happy that thanks to the Americans Western Europe was not rolled over by the Russians after the 2nd world war, quite happy to enjoy peace and prosperity in Europe thanks to the Americans in the last 50 years, yet anything that goes wrong anywhere, even the Russians invading Georgia is blamed on the Americans.

I didnt think Neville Chamberlin had it in him to spawn grandchildren , but he clearly did.

Got to demote you to armchair private, in charge of cleaning the latrines for that one.
