Washington, NATO seen as top global threats

byF. Michael Maloof

WASHINGTON – The Russian military doctrine adopted in 2010 after the “reset” with the Obama administration considers the U.S. and the North Atlantic Treaty Organization, or NATO, the main threats Moscow must be prepared to fight, according to Joseph Farah’s G2 Bulletin

This is the assessment of Alexei Arbatov, a former Duma, or parliament, deputy and currently head of the Center for International Security of the Russian Academy of Sciences.

Recent events have underscored the prospect due to the firing of Russian Defense Minister Anatoly Serdyukov, who served under then-President Dmitry Medvedev, who now is the Russian prime minister.

Russian President Vladimir Putin replaced Serdyukov with Sergei Shoigu, who is more in line with Putin’s outlook on the future role and capabilities of the military.

Under Medvedev, Serdyukov had a different approach, which was to more closely work with the West in an effort to obtain Western technologies and know-how to modernize not only Russian infrastructure but also the military.

All of that went away with Putin’s more confrontational approach with the U.S. and his efforts to blunt American nfluence in Central Asia, which Moscow claims is in its sphere of influence.

Putin also aims to recreate a post-Soviet empire by incorporating the former Soviet republics into a Eurasian Union, a duty-free zone that he sees rivaling the European Union in years to come.

  • more bogey man. stop already.

  • Global politics is like a chess match — but no chess match can be played in the dark. The one who controls the light switch holds ultimate sway.

    All life on earth depends on the Sun to survive and thrive. Since God controls the Sun, God holds ultimate sway. And God’s name is not “Putin.”

  • You would think that after 60 years, most American’s would wise up to the fact that both the USA & Russia negate each other in terms of force. Meaning that neither one would win a war (I know, not a popular sentiment in the “invincible” US).

    Much like the North Korean’s use threats of thermonuclear war, the US power structure and media are constantly using these rumors as a way to bolster military spending and as a method to keep the sheep in line.

    • I respectfully disagree. When information was let out after the Cold War we realized that they could have taken West Europe and our presence in West Berlin and West Germany would have been a mere speed bump; much like our presence in the Korean DMZ. They still out number us in ICBM’s, and with Obama insisting on another START Treaty, they will keep their thousands while we retain a few hundred. Putin has increased their conscripts to another 50,000 (despite the budgeting office asking how they’re going to pay for that), they have modernized missile delivery systems (that rival if not exceed our stealth versions), a modernized nuclear sub fleet, mobile missile launchers, heck, they have a new AK to field to their soldiers. We hardly negated each other in terms of force.
      There’s a good chance that America is the wild card preventing the New World Order from going full bore, so the Red World Order will jump in to help. They’ve been eye balling us for a long time and with our resources, it’d be a gamble worth taking under the right circumstances.

        I go along with that.A real alien threat or a war with Russia and or Iran and or Korea,could be a blessing in disguise. To fall prey to the Zionists that think all of us none jews are Cattle is a very none entertaining thought,Fema Camps and slaughter is not the way I want to end my Life.
        Don’t believe what I just said? look for yourself:http://www.sherryshriner.com/talmud_tidbits.htm

  • itchy trigger fingers…

  • Russia has been prepping to fight the U.S. since the 50′s. Where is the news?

  • Half honky at the helm.

    • I believe the correct phrase is “half honky donkey”. :lol:

      • No the Phrase goes Better red than Dead.

  • ‘india’ boosting or just being BOISTEROUS?

  • Would it not be nice if the people in the armed forces on both sides just told their comanders to go fight their own bankster wars. Bunch of chickens who let everyone else do the dying for nothing. Imagine if the men and woman in the armed service around the world said no more and would not fight one another. If they had to fight in the wars, all wars would never happen again.

  • :twisted: Well….since the rightwing is bent on destroying the US and it’s economy…..which is treason. Then it would only fair, to give Those Russkies the names, grid coordinates of all US REPUBLICANS. So…..when those pesky commies invade, they will know who to send to the re-education camps…..to help those silly and goofy rightwing nut jobs understand their civic duties towards their fellow man. Pretty bad, when Russians are better thought of, than US republicans. lol :roll:
