Sputnik... FOX Business

Russian President Vladimir Putin is likely the most feared and the most respected leader in the world today, his ultimate goal is to challenge the very existence of NATO; he knows that the alliance is weak and is going to take an advantage of this, retired General Jack Keane, a Military Analyst for Fox News, said in a live broadcast.

Russian President Vladimir Putin is probably the most feared and the most respected leader in the world today, and is also very popular in his own country, retired General Jack Keane told Fox News.

Littoral combat ship USS conducts routine patrols in international waters of the South China Sea © Flickr/ U.S. Pacific Fleet Russia, China Not to Accept America’s Vassalage Status Despite US Pressure He claims Europe and the US "have neither the will nor the intention to stop him. They may impose some more sanctions on him, he is going to ignore them.”

The military analyst lamented that the US is not doing “things that would matter” and named what those would be.

“That is providing aid to the Ukrainians, lethal force to make a difference on the battlefield, moving significant forces to the Baltics so that Putin does not try this as step two.”

The general believes President Putin’s ultimate goal is “to challenge the very existence of NATO. He knows that the transatlantic alliance is weak and he is going to take advantage of it.”

The general does see no decisiveness from Europe and US to roll back Russia's influence forcibly.

“All you can get out of them is rhetoric. There may be some increase in sanctions but even the Europeans are pushing back on that. And if it is, it will have no effect on Putin.”

The general also commented on China, noting that it posed an emerging threat to the US.

Washington DC © Flickr/ Tom Finzel Unthinkable: Brazilian Journalist Mulls Soviet-Style Collapse of US “Many people looked at China for years and believed that for a long time they had a defensive military strategy. Just recently they have changed their strategy. They clearly want to dominate in the Western Pacific. And they are going to be much more aggressive and much more assertive in doing this. You can see that being played out now as they are building islands in the South China Sea.”

“China clearly sees the Western Pacific as[presenting] a role that they believe they should dominate in that region much the way the United States and our allies have done for years. They think that that is over. They are going to take advantage of it. And the fact is that we are not even pushing back on this incredible cyberattack they’ve launched in the US last week, at least it became public knowledge last week. There is no response from the US.”

The military analyst was also very critical of US foreign policy and the US retreat.

“Radical Islam has moved into a global jihad the revisionist powers are on in Russia and China. They all are seeking regional domination. And nobody is pushing back on these objectives they are trying to achieve. And then advanced countries like China and Russia will have a cyber capability, launching consistent and persistent offensive cyberattacks on the US with success and no pushback.”

“When you look at all that being played out clearly, the security in the US is much more in jeopardy than what it had been five or six years ago,” he stated.

Putin deals at arms length with Israel. Doesn't take orders from it as is the case with politicians of the West.

What does anyone expect with the US military being constantly bombarded with socialist experiments of prioritizing homosexual recruits in the USMC (and all branches), restructuring the National Guard to an occupying force used against the civilian population, forcing women into special forces units, and announcing a new plan to recruit transgenders?

In the wars I am familiar with, it was the elected politicians that made the decision to engage.

All of them were duly elected by those that voted, thus the military only obey orders.

Generally, the voters back then were just as low-information and ignorant as they are today.

The enfranchisement of everyone insured a mass of stupidity at the polls.

When that seemed in danger of failing, black-box voting machines were invented to assure the desired outcomes.

exactly.

Laura Pressley, , candidate for the Austin City Council District 4, has filed an election contest challenging the results of the run-off election held on December 16th, 2014. Dr. Pressley has found multiple inconsistencies regarding the results of the election:

Some Mail in Ballots appear to have been counted more than once Nearly 4,000 official ballot images are missing, Number of ballots cast exceed the number of reported voters for Early Voting Missing Zero tapes and Results tapes from electronic voting machines

These and other abnormalities bring into question the final results of the run off election. Based on recommendations from Travis County and the Secretary of State, Pressley has filed an election contest in district court. See the Elections webpage for further details.

Truth is still truth even if no one believes it. A lie is still a lie even if everyone believes it.

That is more then naive – you don’t really think that is how things work in DC – do you?

There is no war machine - no military industrial complex – and generals do not vigorously advocate for war and glory?

Really!

US would probably be better off under Chinese political leadership. Current bunch has kept China out of useless terrorism-fostering wars, leading in industrialization and commerce internationally, seems to be able to put people to work to the extent that labor "shortages" have to be ameliorated with robots. Anyway, would be interesting to see how they would deal with the Israeli lobby nonsense which is plaguing US.

Anyone that reads here often would well know I am anti-government first, anti military second, and having participated in one major war, I have a distaste for that also.

Having a well rounded background in recent history and actual experience, does give one the proper balance needed to form a conclusion as to what is real and what is not.

No need to wonder; it was the Soviet Bolshevik Jews who felt Jews would no longer be chased out of countries for their conniving, conning and stealing if everyone adopted their brand of communism. Chinese have communism "with Chinese characteristics" and are dealing with Israel at arm's length like with every other country; not fighting wars for Israel.

The Korean thing would sort of contradict that opinion.

The Chinese lost hundreds of thousands of men, FIGHTING FOR THEIR JEW COMMUNIST MASTERS.

John Howard says: There are 4 schools of economics:
Marxism: steal everything

Chicago school (Milton Friedman): steal by counterfeiting at a steady, predictable rate
Austrians: don't steal
