This really is a fascinating article coming from over at Family Security Matters that deals with just how Russia has really never ended their cold war campaign...and that the new Russia is actually a more formidable enemy to the West than ever before.
The article is quite long but I'm still excerpting all of it - there are just too many valid points in it to not cover all of them.
When you look at the current Iranian nuclear situation, it fits perfectly with what this author is stating. Russia has worked the fence on the Iranian crisis for years - they have literally sold nuclear technology to the Iranians yet positioned themselves as the broker for peace there. To me, it is very obvious that Barack Hussein Obama, through his constant fawning over the Russian leadership and concessions, has put his hopes in Russia to solve the Iranian problem.
The problem is ... people like Putin hold a grudge. And with the recent economic upswing in Russia when they were able to actually get on their feet a bit through income from oil and natural gas, the Russians haven't hesitated to flex their muscle. I'm thankful that we have some watchdogs out there who still keep their eye on past enemies who still are, just that.
