I saw in a crowd photo someone wearing a T shirt that said “we love Russians but hate Democrats”.
The world has sure turned over in the last 50 years. For half a century presidents of both parties, Democrats and Republicans, presided over the cold war utilizing the strategy of containment until the iron curtain collapsed.
I remember being taught to hide under your desk at school in case Russia launched a nuclear attack on the U.S. along with Kruschev’s speech at the U.N. where he said “we will bury you”. This statement has some validity as Russian warfare is based on the strategy of you can kill us until you run out of bullets. Casualties mean nothing to them as evidenced by over half million and still counting in Ukraine.
