Well I think it would be interesting to contrast the military expansionism of America to Russia these days.

I find it a bit annoying to hear American politicians morally lambasting Russia on Georgia when you take Iraq, Afghanistan, etc, into account.

This is a thread about Russia and our worries of another cold war. America's military is a very big factor.
