Yeah, so this time around lets let the rest of the world go fight the nutjob... the US has been covering the world's backside for a long, long time... we need to start taking care of our own country before it is lost
While I don't think he will pull the big ref trigger remember his "nut job" is sitting on the second largest arsonal of nuclear weapons on the planet .
A difficult problem & President Putin has been planning this for decades.
He has gone a long way to divide & destroy the USA by his support for President Trump knowing how President rump would split the nation.
Then he has been selling oil & wheat very cheaply for a long while by supressing the value of the Ruble ( same thing China is doing ) .
Then he has been acquiring a massive amount of Gold ( same as China) so as the Ruble drops in value and the dollar takes a dive he can fall back on the gold reserves .
HE really is a long term player & rat cunning.
The only reason he did not susceed is he ignored the good intelligence he was getting from his department in favour of the B S that the seperatist he sent into the Ukrane had been telling him in order for them to get more money & support .
he Ukrane will eventually become part of Russia , Putin needs the minerals in the Donbas and President Putin does not care how many people are killed .
He has 155,000,000 in hand and loosing 50,000,000 or so is not problem to him in fact it would be an advantage as the Russian economy is basically a resources economy and you don't need a big population to sell gas, oil, petrolium derrived fertalizers wheat & soy to the rest of the world .
The Ukrane will run out of soldiers well before Russia will so the rest of the world is going to decide what to do when that happens , because it will happen .
