Russia is on the rise, and a weak opponent is a great way to rise faster.

I have been banging this drum for years. Putin is more than formidable. This "pit bull" would be chewed up and spit out. I am not even sure if Obama can stand up to him. He is in the process of purchasing Iceland at the moment which will give Russia a military base half way to Boston.
The United States and its allies including Canada and Europe willl need to stand firm. This will necessitate the need for the United States to realize its position in the world, not as the world's only super power. The president of the US is not the most powerful man in the world nor the leader of the "free" world. George Bush totally fucked the "new American Century" myth.
It is time for reality, pragmatism, and when American Thanksgiving rolls around, a little humble pie with that free range turkey.
If no one believes this, just wait.
