The US government is treating Russia just as it treated Japan before World War II fully took hold.
President Roosevelt was inflicting embargos on the Japanese, freezing their money, and cutting them off from all energy.
When they turned to buying fuel from other nations, Roosevelt threatened to blockade their ships. Is it any wonder why the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor to eliminate the US fleet after the threat of an embargo?
@freepatriot EXACTLY - they can't relate to any alternative - just as humans can't any longer remember when the entire world lost it course we once were on, before everything went off-course
