In a piece by Casey Michel at The Atlantic, talked about how Russia is still a “colonial”
power in light of Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.
Michel argued that Russia is a “haphazard amalgamation of regions and nations with hugely varied histories, cultures, and languages.” Once the Russo-Ukrainian War subsides, Michel noted that “The Kremlin will continue ruling over colonial holdings in places including Chechnya, Tatarstan, Siberia, and the Arctic.”...Cheney’s remarks during the collapse of the Soviet Union reveal the strong anti-Russian sentiments held by US foreign policymakers. Michel’s post on The Atlantic further gives credence to these suspicions.
Joe Biden’s statement in March hinting at regime change in Russia demonstrated long-held Deep State desires of overthrowing the Putin regime and then subjugating Russia. There are many people in DC that have an irrational hatred of Russia and want to do everything possible to undermine it through conventional state means or through subversive NGO action.
One doesn’t need to be a Putinophile to recognize that such attempts to break Russia could lead to a nuclear escalation. Moreover, a breakup of Russia would give countries like China an opportunity to swoop in and fill a major vacuum in the Russian Far East, thus empowering it and fast-tracking its ascent as the premier Eurasian hegemon.
Long-term thinking has never been a strong suit of the DC Blob, which continues to pursue myopic policies against whichever country it deems an enemy, long-term consequences be damned. This is a recipe for the US sleepwalking into a military conflict of epic proportions.
The rising America First movement is the only political movement that’s willing to reject fantastical foreign policy proposals and focus on confronting America’s real enemies — the DC Swamp class.
