maybe someone can help me out here.
I know we have all been raised to hate Russia, movies always depict them as aggressors and our enemy, they have a different form of government, we were raised through the 60s practicing hiding under our desk so we would be ok when the nuclear bombs hit us.
So I suppose I understand this semi natural fear or distrust.
But honestly, what would be so bad if we were to actually get along with them, share their technology, maybe joint ventures in the space industry working together to build new civilizations on other planets, Mars first then who knows.
What would be so bad with that if we were on friendly diplomatic terms with them, and we respected their government and they respected ours. I don't buy into this BS that they would try to overtake us, If that was their plan you can pretty much bet that Russia and China would have already joined forces to bring us down. They haven't, and I dont think we need to fear that they will.
So who can enlighten me because other than their aggression toward some other countries I dont see a threat. And consider that we are also allies with Israel, and Israel is not exactly known for its peaceful existence in the middle east.
Oh and one more thing that really causes me to wonder. We hate and are afraid of Russia, who has never done anything to us, but we want to be butt buddies with some of the middle east countries that breed terrorists willing to do anything to destroy us.
