President
Richard Nixon went to some creative distance to open up relations with Mao-era China . Democrat Presidents Bill
Clinton and Barrack Obama have gone to some lengths to found a bad relationship
with Russia harming of American
tactical interests. Obama’s building of a political wall in the Ukraine is a very wrong turn. The
positive benefits of good American and Europe-Russian relations are substantial
and ought to be easy to bring about.
The Ukraine has been Russia for a thousand years-it
is the heartland of Russia with Kiev and Yaroslav being the
origin in 975 a.d. Declaring a shyster snag and grab takeover of Ukraine during Russia ’s transitional weakness
to a post-Soviet state will not erase history and sentiment. The United States now is on the same side
as first the Kaiser in extracting the Ukraine in a land for peace
extortion (Clinton-Yeltsin), and that of Adolph Hitler in retaking the Ukraine for the German
Fatherland. One should not underestimate U.S. political
malpractice-Poland and the Ukraine look the same to those
incompetents-they were just places cruelly invaded by Soviets of which all
Russians are at heart, and what they really need is a Tsar who will ask for
Wall Street to move in and give him a good pension as if he were British
Royalty.
Though
lawyer-Presidents tend to view things through a legal prism without a rational
comprehension of non-legal historical and social issues, they may be plain
stupid or not see the woods for the trees failing to build peace and prosperity
internationally instead of enmity, debt, pollution and conflict.

It
seems plain that Democrat lawyer-Presidents have used sanctions and indirect
conflicts the past two administrations with more than a million dead. That
policy of building civil conflict in which U.S. military forces are only
indirectly involved plainly is short-sighted and callous, immoral and cold.
Libya is being fought over by al Qaeda friendly militias armed with the late
Dictator’s weapons like junk yard dogs seeking to be top.
Egypt
went through its time of troubles to remove the old military leader Hosni
Mubarak who filled in after the Muslim Brotherhood machine gunned President
Anwar Sadat at a parade, so they put the Muslim Brotherhood in power who then
sought to terminate democracy in the constitution and a new, young military
leader was needed to take power and declare the Muslim Brotherhood a terrorist
organization. It is difficult to say that the Arab Spring was good for anyone
in Egypt except journalists.
Bill
Clinton’s sanctions enforcement on Iraq let a million people
perish as they bore the brunt rather than Saddam Hussein. Democrats felt no
compassionate need to find a solution to problems with Iraq . Barrack Obama’s callous
disregard for the effect upon Iraq of building up a mob of
terrorists to attack Syria led to the formation of
the Caliphate in Iraq and an uncertain future
ahead. In 2015 U.S. forces and those of
allies will leave Afghanistan with the likely rise of
terrorist and Taliban influence. In the meantime the Obama administration is
developing bad relations with Russia over the Ukraine it has deemed necessarily
reallocated to global resource apposite Wall Street investing.
It
is true that without the sophomoric legalistic concept of Ukrainian-Russian
history the conflict in Ukraine could have never started.
Recognizing that Ukraine is at least half Russian
would have benefited U.S. and European tactical
interests in several respects. A natural and peaceful regional
Ukrainian-Russian balance would have evolved without necessary exclusion of the
U.S. and Europe from participating
commercial investing there and in Russia . One can consider
President Reagan’s policy of constructive engagement that led to change in South Africa and the end of apartheid.
Harsh
sanctions applied with sanctimoniousness are not necessarily best
policy-especially if one is building on a platform of shyster land grabbing
with the Kaiser and Adolph Hitler histories as legal precedents, and realize
that with Russian Ukraine constructive engagement was a better policy than
stimulating conflict. The Royal Dutch government though representing lots of
nice blondes ought not to be so offended by the loss of life in a tragic
fly-a-plane through a war zone accident of war that it is used by the Wall
Street and Obama-Harvard axis of power as a tail wagging the dog rationale for ratcheting
up investment in conflict, sanctions and war.
Russian
people are not like the royal-led Dutch with an easy climate. Maybe 95% of
Russians are descended from slaves/ serfs or a kind of feudal servant
bound to the land living with the cold environment a lethal weapon half the year. Only
through the grace of God did they rid themselves of the royalty and its table of
ranks for civilians. Even so, after the revolution they were dominated by
brutal dictators and treated again as slaves of the state wherein a piece of unauthorized
bread in a pocket could get a 20 year sentence in the gulag of penal camps. Of
course the Nazis invaded and seized the Ukraine and later when the
fascist were gone and the Soviet Communist elites withered away Bill Clinton duped
old Boris Yeltsin to sign away the Ukraine maybe for 24 dollars
worth of trinkets. The ordinary people of Russia may want it back.
How
can anyone in their right mind believe that Europe and the United States are not better off
constructively engaged with Russia commercially and in a
large number of issues of interests from environmental protection to space
development and security issues than in developing caustic, my-way-or-the-highway
sophomoric legalist enmity? Destabilizing Europe in the long run by
removing the Ukraine from Russia presents a direct threat
to Russian border security from the west. It also forms an implicit Russian
need to develop covert measures to recover its lost land that will go on for
the next century at least. There is no quick and only moderately dirty
political or military way to erase Russia ’s memory of Ukraine and drug it down top a
new, more shrunken condition.
The
opportunity costs to Europe and the United States for building a wall in
the Ukraine instead of a peacefully
cooperative shared land for Russia and the Ukrainians are
substantial. Russia will need to look to China for loans and the Chinese
probably will choose to invest in Russia and raise the rate of loans to the
United States. A divided Russia and Europe will be far less powerful
in comparison to China and India in the decades ahead. The
future of the United States may be even more
uncertain with China growing militarily and
economically and our European allies weakened and also more reliant upon China trade and investment.
Building a wall in the Ukraine between Europe and Russia is a significant
strategic fork in the wrong direction for the United States , yet one that a
litigation minded President is too happy to make.
