... to whom you gave short shrift. She talked about the Ukraine/West v Russia as a continental or border war and feared that the UK would be drawn in more than we are already. She did not want us to be targetted or increase our engagement. Was she meaning that it was more of a civil war between Slavs from Russia and Slavs from Ukraine?
You were certain that she was defending the Nazis of the 1930s and 40s and that she was agreeing with Russia that they were fighting Nazis in Ukraine.
You were insistent that the real Nazis are the Russians and that they are intent on further expansion once they get their hands on E Ukraine. The 1930s aggression by the Nazis was cited as what the Russians will do in this century. There will be no stopping them, and they will be all over Europe with the UK included.
Was the 1914 war that started in Europe also one that was about European empires defending their territories they had won for themselves around the world? In other words a border war?
Did that border war or that war between the European empires over who had what bits of land around the globe, lead onto the 1939 war after Germany was solely to blame and the punished for the '14-'18 war?
Did the Nazis come out of a Western European nation, faraway from Russia?
Has Russia been noted for Communism rather than right wing nationalism?
Would you consider the Israeli Cabinet to be more like right wing Nazis rather than left wing socialists wanting justice for the workers and peace and harmony for all classes and nations?
Are there any similarities between the continuing punishment of Hamas and everyone in Gaza, with what the Nazis did to the Jews and the other minority groups for those 12 years of horror?
What was the reason for Putin taking Crimea?
What was the cause? The ABC, the Antecedents to the Behaviour leading to the Consequences?
Has Russia been invaded twice by W European powers in the last two centuries?
Is it three former Warsaw Pact countries that are now members of NATO?
Was NATO formed partly out of fear that Communist Russia would expand westwards?
Was the Warsaw Pact a response to NATO?
Would you consider that with only one great military alliance now left standing that Russia may have some grounds for disquiet?
Was there a balance between the West and the USSR in the years between 1945 and 1989 and the collapse of the USSR?
Was it called Mutually Assured Destruction or MAD?
Ukraine got its independence in 1991 but even then she remained so much closer to Moscow than Washington, do you believe?
Have the last 1,000 years seen close ties but also intermittent wars between the peoples of Ukraine and the people further east?
Is it only fair and right that our Western sphere of influence should extend to every corner of the planet because we have democracy and capitalism and freedom?
There really is no longer any room for any other alternative, is there? Is it the end of history, therefore?
Was it the Russian Empire that had the most far reaching empire in the history of the world? One third of the land area and one fifth of the world's population?
Which empire has been the most rampant over the most land area in the centuries of its existence?
Which country has been the most aggressive, responsible for the most killings and wars?
Was it the capitalists or the communists?
