Ya, Russia's not going to attack us directly anytime soon, but that's never been the issue. The issue is whether they will be allowed to expand their power in Eastern Europe, or even into Turkey and the Mid East. That's why we still have NATO. It's a powerful country and it needs to be contained.

If any one country ever gets so strong that they dominate Europe, and especially if it's Russia, it's not going to be good for us.

Trump is soft on Putin for some reason even though the guy's a blatant warmonger. It's better to contain guys like that from the beginning than to appease them. That's how World War II got started right?
