The Russian THREAT to the West - New Cold War


Lets Get Real:

The real THREAT to Western security is not the up and downs of the economic markets it the growing threat from Russia.   They have taken over the Crimea, they are in the Eastern Ukraine, they have just done a deal to with the Assad Government to remain in Syria in til the end of time.   The Russians are a present and long term threat, the good old days of pushing Russia around as long gone.   The Russians want the old USSR back or something close to a Greater Russia.    The next US President, and all the trends suggest it will be HRC will have to deal with the failure of her restart with Russia in the first Obama Administration and the growing presence of Russia in the Middle East.    Syria could be a flashpoint for the next Cuban Missile Crisis, what if HRC sets out a no fly zone in Syria and the Russians start to shoot at US airplanes, yes it could get that serious fast.   The clock is ticking and it is closer to Midnight than many people expect.
