It is the US and NATO that are the aggressor in all of this. Keep in mind that we are at their border and not the other way around. If WWIII pops off I think Russia will strike first due to being cornered. They will probably use most of their arsenal of nuclear weapons. All it takes is one miscalculation on NATO's part for Russia to feel threatened.
All of our lives hang in the balance of a few individuals at the top and no one wants to talk about it. In fact,the real insanity of this country, is that we are actually criticizing Trump for wanting to negotiate with Putin. The media is consistently pushing for a more aggressive approach to Russia (as if surrounding their border with WMD's isn't aggressive enough). This is completely irresponsible. I'm not fan of Trump but I'm all for peace and averting Armageddon.

Facts...its like people have the memory of an alcoholic rodent....
who provoked putin in with south Ossetia and then doubled down in Ukraine and Crimea and several rounds of sanctions and economic and diplomatic prodding.....
If we are going to be pedantic too many presidents since JFK been somewhat antagonistic towards them ....they probably did it to keep the arms race budgets as high as possible but Barry did something truly different...something that no other president had done before since WW2 ended...bringing troops and equipment right up to their back yard in those Baltic states

...Barry pretended like he was not part of the program but we all know how shyt went down once he took the wheel
