[Peace-discuss] The Russian threat

[Karen Aram]

My analysis off the top of my head:

Looks as if Russia is failing to fall into our trap of depleting their budget, impoverishing their people, by placing all resources into “military weapons and war.”
The Soviet Union did fall  into our trap in 1979, Russia today with Putin is so much smarter.
It looks as if we have fallen into our own trap.

So it looks like the entire Russian military budget is less than the proposed 10% increase in the U.S. budget.
