In addition to making threats of attacks against Poland and the West for 2 straight days, Russia will also withdraw from NATO, according to Norwegian sources.
With its growing isolation from the rest of the world and its belligerent sabre-rattling about nuclear strikes against Poland and 'going beyond diplomacy' in response to the U.S.-Polish agreement on a defensive missile shield, Russia now joins North Korea, Iran, Syria, Cuba, and Venezuela as a 'rogue nation.'
Rogue nations are part of an 'axis of evil,' an 'evil empire' to borrow Reagan's term, that recognize no civilized manner of dealing with conflict in the world.
With their barbarian and totalitarian notions of world dominance and bullying their neighbors, the rogue nations recognize no power or authority of individual citizens but concentrate their power totally in the state.
It is a shame that only 20 years after breaking free from the grip of Communism under the leadership of Mikael Gorbachev and Boris Yeltsin--as a result of Reagan's prodding--the Russian people are once again succumbing to the harsh brutality of totalitarians such as Vladimir Putin and his puppet-President.
And the thing that is not only ironic but baffling is how the Russians, with a straight face, can claim to be so outraged over a missile shield that they threaten to attack Poland with nukes, yet act bewildered that Poland and other bordering nations are so afraid of the Russians that they need a missile shield in the first place.
Russia's manner of protesting the shield is nothing but proof that Poland needs the shield.

They were never actually "free." As Anatoliy Golitsyn revealed in New Lies for Old, it was all planned and staged to deceive the West so that the Bloc nations could gain strategic advantage. Golitsyn's accuracy rate on events as outlined in the chapter The Final Phase, is around 97%. However, the book was published in 1984, long before any of the events written about took place.
Golitsyn is right, and we are in deep trouble.
