Why is It Important to Defeat Russia

Geopolitical complexity is beyond comprehension but it may not be that complex.

I just call it pride and prejudice.

I had to make sense of why it was important for the Americans to Defeat SSgt Khanh Pham in 2013. At the surface level, I think national security has something to do with it. Maybe Americans’ interests. Maybe personal benefits.

But at the bottom of all the bullshit, it was just stupidity.

There was pride. I had no idea that the white man feeling inferior was my fault. I had no idea that the more confident I am at my job and my identity, the white man would feel inferior. I had no idea that it was my job to make the white man feel secure in his incompetency.

I had received some diplomatic security training, in preparation for the work at the international stage. I had called out some of the ridiculous materials, and I was happy to hear a reasonable answer. I had already traveled outside the US many times, and none of the fear-monger types of materials in the training were true. Supposedly in the 1970s it was crazy. Spy vs Spy. One of my favorite childhood wordless narratives. Which simplifies the US narratives down to the essence of it all.

Some intellectuals with high vocabularies and a high thinking process would articulate, that the world has moved on and that Putin refused to move on. Today, we noticed that Russia as conservative as it is, can tolerate free speech. Not arresting Pavel Durov. France and the US, however, are not able to tolerate free speech. How then do these intellectuals rationalize their theory that they are the superior white messiah, and the rest are undeveloped?

Why would it be necessary to defeat?

Because Russia is the bad guy, and the black spy, so we must destroy it? Why were France and England allowed to be part of the NATO security block, but Russia was denied? Why are the US and UK always the NATO commander, when all members are equal? Is this originating from the idea that some of us are more equal than others? Such as black males are worth 1/3 a white male, and brown males are worth 2/3 a white male? But Russia is white too, Putin said.

KKK does not discriminate against whites. It is also capable of attacking whites for not supporting the hierarchy. Russia was too much of a bully to join NATO. There was never any room for two bullies. Russia did not learn its place. Obama tried to show Putin that Russia has no place at the table.

I had 1 American commander who showed up at a foreign military installation and showed the host that the host had no seat at the head of the table. The host commander just laughed and sat at my table where I always sat and entertained the workers.

Russia perhaps was talking to China without permission and that upset the bully at the table. How dare Russia try to build a relationship with China? How dare Russia be confident beyond its rank. It is supposed to be a pariah state, not a superpower. It must be put in its place.

So, the USAF has wasted millions of dollars in failing to destroy me as the Chinese Spy.

The USA is about to waste trillions failing to destroy Russia.

While the people at USAF/AFTAC are living in fear that I may defend myself like Netanyahu is defending himself in Gaza.

The US is living in fear of nuclear retaliation from Russia. To continue the fight would cost more. To end the fight would cost more. anyway the US pivot, it cost more.

The only way this would have not cost so much was by sharing with Russia a seat at the table. There were only 5 people they had to share with. but that was too much to ask. Now there is this ridiculous risk of having the share the table with 200 other want-to-be nations. How can we live if everyone has the same standard of living as Americans? What sort of world would that be where nations around the world have an equal seat?

There is evidence of geopolitical problems within the cultural norms at the individual level. There is not a whole lot of difference between allowing an individual to commit a crime with impunity and allowing a group to commit a crime with impunity. The collective West is only but a reflection of individual pride and prejudices.

A second-class citizen or a second-class nation is expected to behave in certain ways. Stepping outside the social norms makes them vulnerable to ostracism. -Jane Austin
