How is life? Just tell us about things in general. Information is very hard to come by in the west.

Perhaps of threats against her? But I see no guns getting ready to strike. No declarations of war or violence pitted against her. What is her 'research' telling the state? That there is some sort of cabal directed at her to oust her from the global stage? Methinks Russia doth protests too much.
Military bases around Russia, support the Nazis and the military coup in Kiev, supporting Islamic militants in the Caucasus - it is sufficient reasons. West creeps into the sphere of influence of Russia with the use of brute force and weapons. This is the reason Russian aggression.

I've heard nothing but hysteria in the western media about these bikers, the Night Wolves. You'd think they were going to smuggle nuclear bombs into their Poland in their saddle bags. The politicians went spatic for the most part.

I really think there's a kind of mass insanity by a very few very powerful people in the west in regards to Russia.

I am glad that most people are not so delusional.

The concept of a Russian Sphere of influence is imperialistic in its very essence. Russia has no rights no dictate other sovereign states decisions.

Also, The West is not using brute force. Brute force would be a conventional military attack on Russia, which isn't going to happen.

The West used covert military force. They used paramilitaries to augment the Ukraine military, just as they have in other conflicts around the world. These kinds of conflicts can be much messier than conventional wars as they can drag on for decades. 10 million in Syria alone have been displaced and 200,000 have been killed.

Their convenience to the establisment is the press is forbid to provide coverage on their activities as attributed to the US government. When the newswires accidentally reported on the CIA staging a false flag underwear plot in Yemen, they were sued by the federal government to reveal their sources. An FBI bomb technician is now in prison for revealing the Al Qaeda in Arab Peninsula bomb plot was actually a joint operation of the CIA and Saudi intel.

Re:Russian fear of encirclement

And thus Vlad's ramping up the pressure with threats of nuke strikes. Perhaps that is why he has made consistent gains in Ukraine all this while? The West has not overtly armed Ukraine under the circumstances. Gives a bit of leeway for Uncle Vladimir to act as the West has to calibrate the threats coming from Russia.

Thing is now he has to think about how he will proceed in the war. If he goes too he may get surprised after the Crimea and the Donbas. There may be a line that cannot be crossed and even Europe wouldn't stand for. But on all that let's hope the old boy isn't crazy as a fox.

Russia is a huge country, which exists 1000 years, which is home to 150 nations. I do not think that you have the right to tell Russia that Russia should do in Russian sphere of influence. 25 years ago, Russia has given a huge amount of territory. Russia should restore order in these lands, because the separation of land has not been thought out.

It is not fear. It is irritation (annoying).

This is Serbia in 1999. Is it not brute military force? Your propaganda has eaten your brain.
