Just WHY Did the US Deep State Declare War On Russia?
11th February 2024
A sensible U.S. foreign policy would have been to leave NATO the week after the Warsaw Pact was dissolved in February 1991. The Europeans, who far exceeded Russia in population and wealth, and included two—count ’em, two—nuclear powers could then have handled the Eastern Question as they saw fit.
We, meanwhile, could have developed friendly, helpful relations with Russia as they got back on their feet after the Soviet fiasco.
They would be just another big, distant nation we could have commercial relations with, like India or Brazil.
Why didn’t we take that path? Because the architects of our foreign policy are, as David Goldman tells us, terminally stupid.
Exactly right.
