Description: Three decades ago, U.S. President George H.W. Bush marked the end of the Cold War in his 1992 State of the Union address. It was a heady moment when anything and everything seemed possible. But it would not last.

I think you are spot on Brian, Russia was always going to default to this mode of imperialism. Let's call the Russian federation for what it is, en empire, there's over 100 non-slavic nationalities in Russia and they are all conquered. Also one look at the en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_war…involving_Russia page, even just the ones before 1945 going back to the 16th century - there must be 250 wars listed, too many to even begin counting - put's how comical and clownish the "POOR RUSSIA VICTIM OF NATO" charlatans like Meirsheimer or Horton et. al. actually are. These kind of people are dangerous lunatics when it comes to us here in Ukraine!
