Don't count on it...they will be lashing out militarily and the Boy in Chief doesn't have the stones to stop them. They are far more dangerous now than they have ever been and we have never been weaker.

YOu got it, hungry people and high inflation make a powerful army.

Hmmm, are you going to be known in here as the "great strawman stuffer"?

I re-read my post, and couldn't find what your post insinuated.

Then you read the wrong post...

Economics and warfare are joined at the hip. Economic warfare can easily goad another country into war. Case in point are the boycotts and trade restrictions imposed by FDR on Japan prior to the attack on Pearl Harbor. Many historians believe that this was FDR's intent and was primarily calculated to draw Hitler into declaring war on the US so FDR could legitimize US aid and assistance to Britain.

Gomezz, I bet you studied about guns and butter in your economics classes.

The Russian situation is another example of the US sticking it's nose into everyone's business. When Russia intruded into the seaport of I believe Crimea and got into the pissing contest with the Ukraine  it really was none of our business. Our Manchild President  should have kept his big mouth shut or simply protested and let it go. Oh no he had to get us involved and insulted Putin by calling him nothing but a regional politician, WTF is Obama? Then he promotes and gets us involved in sanctions against Russia and pushes Putin into a corner and right into the hands of China. This was/ is a European problem. This is another example of why this country is constantly at war, throwing our wealth down rat holes and wasting the blood of our young men and women in worthless shiste holes, swamps and sand dunes like Korea, Viet Nam and now the Middle East. If we want to win for a change we should pull out of the Middle East lock, stock and barrel and let those barbarians kill each other off.
