Re: It's time for chicken in Ukraine (none / 1)
Current Russian policy is a threat to Western Capitalist circles because:
  1. it doesn't allow them to exploit Russian natural resources on the cheap (in fact hardly at all)
  2. it's re-asserting its own business interests in central Europe, the Balkans, the Caucuses and the Middle East
  3. it's reinforced with some very sophisticated military gadgets.

Why should Russia allow no. 1, not reassert its business interests under number 2 and not have the "gadgets" under no. 3?

When has lacking good reasons ever kept the Western(TM) elites from doing things?
