Putin Prepares For Invasion of Europe With Massive Cuts to Military Spending
Russia announces "deepest defense budget cuts since 1990s". Putin must be stopped before it's too late
By Riley Waggama
March
19, 2017 "Information Clearing House" - Since the fall of
the Berlin Wall, the world has enjoyed an unprecedented era of peace
and prosperity.
Long
gone are the days of wasteful military expenditures and no-bid
contracts to build airplanes and aircraft carriers that neither fly
nor float.
The
permanent wartime economy that was never dismantled after World War
II is ancient history. There is simply no longer any justification
for spending many gazillions of dollars each year on Raytheon space
lasers. In the United States, jet fighter factories now manufacture
lawn mowers and Segways.
We
are living in good times. Sensible times.
But
all that we've accomplished over the last 25-odd years is now being
threatened by one man.
From
Baltimore to Baghdad, people cry out: "who will stop Vladimir
Putin from conquering the world?"
Yes,
Russia's czar has imperial ambitions — global ambitions. He wants
war. He needs war.
And
from the looks of it, that's exactly what he's preparing for:
Figures
released by the Russian Federal Treasury have confirmed that Russia's
defence budget has been cut by 25.5% for 2017, falling from RUB3.8
trillion (USD65.4 billion) to RUB2.8 trillion.
The
reduction represents the largest cut to military expenditure in the
country since the early 1990s.
As
we type these words, the Russians are greasing their tank treads with
the blood of Al Nusra and other moderate, LGBTQ-friendly knitting
clubs in Syria.
The rape of Aleppo did not fulfill Putin's bloodlust. He's coming for Europe. And then the world.
Putin's so determined to fight NATO/ invade Europe/ take over the world that he's just cut military spending by 25% via @antsvetov
Godspeed
to all those who take up arms against the Russian invaders.
And
let us also pray that these Russian defense cuts do not in any way
discourage Washington from spending more on military than basically
the entire world combined.
