August1991 Posted October 7, 2024 Report Posted October 7, 2024 It will not be the Middle East. (Those various Arabs have been fighting forever.) It will not be the China Sea. (Chinese are largely peaceful people.) ===== Leftist America screws things up - like in Europe 1914. Quote

Bring it on then if that's how you really feel about it. But of course the right will bend over while whining about it like it always does. 1 Quote A government without public oversight is like a nuclear plant without lead shielding.

August1991 Posted October 28, 2024 Author Report Posted October 28, 2024 China? Not an issue. (I strongly disagree with Mearsheimer.) Iran? Part of the Israel/Middle East/Arab/Lebanon - Shia/Shiite whatever civil war Russia/Ukraine? Stupid civil war. ======. You Americans won the Cold War. As Reagan said, "You won, they lost.") Go home.

Got nothing to do with having a counter weight of getting along...we as a nation have not been tested by anything that has divided us....mostly becasue i don't think Canadians care to much about anything to start a fight over, either that or we are to lazy, i think it is a bit of both we don't care and we are lazy....

You mean they will stand up to the Bear should they have to. Now Russia's strength has been exposed in Ukraine, just as Finland showed it to Germany in 1939. Quote

Well except on the hockey rinks, of course. We do tend to be more community minded than our neighbours to the south, but I think it's geography. Americans settlers would take their family and load them into a covered wagon & head West to build a life. Not so much in Canada. Anyone, in those times, heading out on their own wouldn't make it through the winter. Our fore fathers had to build community groups and work together to survive. I think it shaped our culture and attitudes. We tend to be rule followers, (not me, of course, but those other guys <Smile>). Quote

The current US State Department bureaucrats (so-called deep state) are doing exactly as European bureaucrats around 1900 did. Read Tuchman's, The Guns of August. ==== In 2020s, we are not facing Hitler. We are struggling with a multi-polar world. Quote
