Yes, you wrote that you have writeen your last on this post but one point.

You pointed out that from the Russian pov, which frustratingly all the western chauvinists have no capacity to even try to understand, the world is so simple when it is black and white, good guys versus bad guys like in the movies, grey is way too complicated for most people to handle-

Anyway, from the Russian pov, the kasha about what the point of NATO is after the Warsaw pact so naturally the assumption is to harm Russia. Alternatively, why does the world view us so suspiciously after we have basically surrendered. Apparently they are not satisfied with the beating they have given us.

From the Russian perspective this is a valid point.

But there is a legitimate explanation and it has nothing to do with Russia.

To prevent European countries whose history is pretty war infested from being בעלים over their own military.

That would insure that they don’t start fighting again. And it’s worked for 30 years now.

Of course, said explanation cannot be expected to assauge Russian fears.

Which is why NATO should be containing itself and stop poking the bear.

Unfortunately, the west’s arrogance is too great and it can’t help itself from shtucching Russia.
