I just hope Russia and their average joe infantry soldier realize that the American people do not want any of this, and it is strictly our Gov.'s doing. That would seriously suck going to war with a super power who's tech is (for the most part) near on par with ours. This wont be poor folk with dirty tennis shoes and pickup trucks.
The big difference here is the russian government is trying to help the russian citiziens- the US government is the US citizens biggest enemy.

We all know this.

Russia exposed Washington insider corruption.
So of course we have to hate Russia and go to war with them.
So says our (now exposed) corrupt government.

I don't think it's "anti-war".
It's anti-perpetual war.
No one wants to win anymore.
“Americans voting for a president on November 8 must realise that they are voting for peace on planet Earth if they vote for Trump,” he said.
“But if they vote for Hillary [Clinton] it’s war. It will be a short movie. There will be Hiroshimas and Nagasakis everywhere.”
Russia and the US have fundamentally divergent views of the conflict. Russia's objective is to ensure the survival of the Assad regime, whereas for the US it is the root of Syria's crisis.
Russia has deftly used its power to challenge the US and has positioned itself as a major beneficiary of the ongoing turmoil.
Putin may have several aims in Syria but the most significant one remains that of projecting Russian power on the global stage and re-establishing Moscow as a credible global power.
It still remains to be seen if he will be successful in his objective.
