"Putin is busy making himself into a $billionaire by stealing a good chunk of Russia's wealth. Why does he need to divert resources to a hopeless cause? What can Russia gain by launching a preemptive attack on some unknown country? Russia, like the US, depends heavily upon the slavery of the rest of the world. Putin wouldn't attack those sending him dollars." Putin is already a billionaire and war with the west is the last thing on his agenda. My guess is that he would like to reassemble a portion of the USSR, or at least the areas that the Czars ruled, as well as possible indirect control of the oil producing regions in Central Asia. One of the reasons for the Bush proposed ABM in Eastern Europe was to show US support for the newly free governments in that region. Poland and the Czechs saw that intention and strongly welcomed it. The idea of NATO expansion was to directly counter Russian attempts at future control of that region. We also maintain(ed) bases in the oilandgas-istans with the intention of hoping that a US presence would allow them to maintain their independence. The question is what does our President do should Russia start to reclaim its empire? As always it is our allies that should be nervous.
