so... russia has halted military co-operation with NATO...

anyone from russia here?

im wondering if this is the first step of them going on thier own path. not saying any wars are going to happen, but im curious to see if they begin to isolate themslelves as a major world power, who will not fully cooperate on the world stage.

few factors why i see them doing this.

  1. the US missle defense sheild. i dont blame them, but the euro nations agree to these, they create jobs and ecopnomies at the bases, on the other hand, here is US, saying we like you. then building a missle defense sheild around you. hmmm
  2. russia keeps things in house, and the past few years of the orange revolution, georgia, its trade and relations to socialistic leaders who dont seem like they are ready to step down at their term ends, etc. they have been exposed. thier laundry is on CNN often.
  3. middle east wars are their backyard and the "allied antions" are partying like a boston college preppy frat house in their backyard.

Methinks Pooty-Poot has been hanging with his buddy Bush too much. Sounds like what we've done for the past 6 years.
