Their USSR days of tromping around the globe taught them how easy it was to overextend. Their days during their nadir being attacked by terrorists in their schools taught them that ignoring their neighbors is bad policy also. Russia is shooting at being a serious regional power, and on par with the USA in Europe and the middle east. <br />China has ambitions on Africa and possibly the globe.

Yet, no worries. Russia doesn't want a global empire, just border security. Their initial drive east was offensive only to defeat the mongol types and the Cold War offensive was defensive in nature trying to defend against the US.

It really is all about the Saudi's influencing the OPEC vote to keep production high (which will temporarily lower prices) so as to kick the Frackers in the balls by having to shut-down temporarily, and then spend big bucks to 'start-up' once prices warrant.<br /><br />I've seen figures that say Frack Oil needs close to $100/barrel to be profitable. BTW, Canadian tar-sands oil only needs $70/barrel to keep in the black.<br /><br />Anyways, there's far more to all of this than The Powers That Be will ever let us peasants in on. We are cannon fodder, and nothing more.<br /><br />I'm sorry about your recent spousal (#4?) problems. If you move to Minnesota I will guarantee you a hook-up with my step-sister. She has, thus far in life (she is 45 yrs/old), decided that having black men that literally beat her black-n-blue is the way to live. She has long been ready for a 'real' man, but is clueless as to how to find him because of her upbringing. Actually, she is so desperate that she would probably move to you. Beware though, she is a life-long welfare queen. (two grown 20+ year old daughters (gorgeous) who never got a red-cent from their 'father') If you have even one-half of one-percent interest in knowing more, I will e-mail you. She just wants somebody that won't beat her. And just so you know: I'm a long-time reader, and a huge fan. She is a girl that you would be compatible with. Shit-in-a-bucket and all! She is quite naive, but a survivor.<br /><br />Your new blog is getting close to overdue for an over-the-top anti-Obama rant. Just saying...<br /><br />Nobody can quite say it like you do, Lord Bison.<br /><br />Peace, Love, and Ammunition.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2686829448547770092.post-20086927136964768282014-12-03T15:56:45.648-08:002014-12-03T15:56:45.648-08:00Certainly, bankrupting both superpowers might incr...Certainly, bankrupting both superpowers might increase the Saudi's survivability.
