Cold War Rants... from our own head prefect

Well it appears that Russia is in sighting a new cold war front… Hmmn, as said by our own head prefect of the West, David Milliband… behind so much of the rhetoric of western govts within the last few days, it is clear who is in-sighting a new cold war and that is the west of course… For all of Russia’s (or Putin’s) errors, a cold war is the last thing on their agenda… I am not saying that they are without fault of course.. It is clearly a govt run by gangsters… Although the feigned morality of our own leaders can equally be seen as mafia like in itself, clearly the Russians have less reason to hide it…

Millibands insistence that we be ‘tough’ on Russia is a clear indicator that Britain would indeed like a confrontation with Russia… I doubt very much they have the stomach for a real fight, as nuclear weapons tend to grind those thoughts to pieces… However I can clearly see the West (or elements thereof) that would like to see fractures in the relationship take place… Enemies are great tools for politicians to engender support from the people… They may not like outright war, but a bogeyman is great fodder for terrifying your citizenry with…

I have to repeat that there is little difference betweens Russia’s involvement in South Ossetia than with our involvement in Kosovo… If it were the case that the Georgians were killing innocents in South Ossetia, then the moral distinction was clearly the same as that of our involvement in Kosovo… It would be disingenuous for politicians to say anything other than giving its full support to Russia in quelling the violence taking hold down there….

In all of Russia’s statements regarding Georgia they have not said once that they wanted to continue operations much beyond the boarders of South Ossetia. So clearly they have drawn lines in the sand, again not to dissimilar to that of us in Serbia.

However in all of this, I do not see either Russia or the west having any moral validity. Be that as it may, for the west to up the anti regarding this new cold war front, it is very clear to me who needs this cold war and it's not Russia…
