Cold War II

Americans used to say during the Cold War when the Soviet Union was Stalinistic that they quite easily could understand what the Soviets would do because they were very predictable. Or like Tom Clancy said in 'The Hunt for Red October'; your average 'Russkie' don't even take a dump without having a plan.But today?

What do the Russians really want with these things?
Why do they even need to send out bombers for reconnaissance when they would only have to use Google Earth...

Russia has always been a very hard country to govern, I guess. In the 11th century they called in the big, mighty and probably wise Vikings from Birka, the Ruser (thus, Russia and Russians), to help create more of a country out of all the different tribes fighting to be bigger themselves, instead of together. A few hundred years later it was too big for the time and one of the final punches was when the Romanov's came.

Lenin's Marxism-Leninism didn't get enough time before the psychofuck Stalin took over with Leon Trotsky being forced into exile and later, when one of Stalin's agents thought he was a huge ice block, he was murdered with an ice pick. The Stalinists were really crazy already in that time, with the murder weapon in mind you could think that it was carried out somewhere cold, where an ice pick actually was needed. The actual place? Mexico. Lots of snow there.

Anyhoo, the Russians today, I can imagine, are very unpredictable. They're torn between an old and corrupt way of governing the country and a new one imposed by America after the fall of the USSR. In the middle of that, the drunken buffoon Boris Jeltsin sold off everything that anyone would want to buy in Russia, thus creating yet another impossible situation with very few people owning almost all assets in the country. Like america, but squared.

And now they seem to bust up their military again.

Are we really heading into another Cold War and if so, which side are the Russians really on? I have no idea, but probably no-ones but their own I guess. Except from their enemies enemy obviously.
