USA-valet: varför John McCain måste stoppas innan han, om han vinner förklarar krig mot Ryssland.
March 29th, 2008
John McCain
Den snart 72-årige John McCain vill inte bara vinna George Bushs Krig mot Terrorismen” och fortsätta den amerikanska ockupationen av Irak i hundra, tusen eller en miljon år, oavsett vad irakierna själva tycker.
Han vill också ge sig på Ryssland med pukor och trumpeter nästan som om han trodde att det gamla Sovjetunionen fortfarande existerade.
Problemet med John McCain är att han ett hetsigt humör som inte är av denna världen. T.o.m. militären är rädd för honom när han helt förlorar kontrollen och börjar skrika.
En så okontrollerad och tillika så krigisk person i Vita Huset skulle få George Bush att framstå som en kriminell men ändå altargosse.
Helene Cooper skriver i New York Times om John McCains svärdskrammel mot Ryssland:
Mr. McCain, the presumptive Republican nominee for president, used his strongest and most bellicose words in describing his views of Russia. He called for throwing Russia out of the Group of Eight, the club that is supposed to be made up of the world’s wealthiest industrialized democracies. (Brazil and India, Mr. McCain said, should be allowed in, while Russia would get the boot.) He accused Russia of “nuclear blackmail” and “cyber attacks.” And, he added, “Western nations should make clear that the solidarity of NATO, from the Baltic to the Black Sea, is indivisible and that the organization’s doors remain open to all democracies committed to the defense of freedom.”
Whew.
For many Americans, Mr. McCain’s rhetoric sounded almost like a trip back in time, to the days of the cold war, when major foreign policy addresses by American presidential aspirants always included the requisite bashing of the Soviet Union.
Foreign policy experts say that in many ways, Mr. McCain’s strong words about Russia reflect a chill setting in on the previously warm relationship which President Bush purportedly had with his Russian counterpart, Vladimir V. Putin. Forget about Mr. Bush’s now-famous remark that, upon meeting Mr. Putin back in 2001, he “looked the man in the eye” and “was able to get a sense of his soul.”
John McCain får också saker om bakfoten, han blir lätt förvillad. Han blandar ihop Irak och Iran, Sunni och Shiha, och han ser världen på ett synnerligen endimensionellt sätt. Han är t.ex. enligt egen utsago helt ointresserad av och oinsatt i ekonomiska frågor.
Som om George Bush inte vore katastrofal nog.
