Arctic Cold War - Canada
Sep 2007
As the scramble for Arctic resources intensifies, Canada is stepping up its military presence in the region. It's determined to protect its national sovereignty. "We will not compromise the defence of Canadian territory", vows Prime Minster Stephen Harper, announcing plans for more polar patrol ships. As the Arctic warms up; "major corporations are waking up to the fact there is going to be tremendous economic opportunity", explains Prof Huebert. Canada, Russia, Denmark and Norway all have claims to the Arctic seabed, where vast mineral reserves are thought to lie. There's concern that this scramble for resources could spiral out of control. "The worst case scenario is one of a regional area where hostilities are the norm and co-operation the exception", warns Huebert. The other...

Is the LukeWarm War becoming a New Cold War
Pat Buchanan said the American people weren't told who started the war? What are they, lazy? Do they need to be told to search for the truth? People should stop relying on main stream media, and only a fool or hypocrite is still blinded by the lies of main stream media.
I do not really know how one can compare Serbia with Georgia!
It was an odd move for Russia recognizes South Ossetia and Abkhazia, it had the advantage even though EU tried to mislead it on the six point. Of course the main culprits of distortion and hostility towards Russia are America and its bit*h, the UK.
Maybe it realises it can't do any right by the West unless it submits, so nothing to lose.
I think it played out well for those who desire the cold war. The war OF terror was losing its momentum. Who needs the...

Rice wags finger at Russian isolationism
U.S. Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice has warned Russia that its policies have put it on a path to isolation and irrelevance. Rice's speech at the German Marshall Fund event reflects a further deterioration in U.S.-Russian relations as opinions in the West remain split over Georgia's invasion of South Ossetia. Meanwhile, former presidential candidate Ron Paul disagreed with Rices statements. He accused the U.S. government of trying to stir up another Cold War driven by vested interests.

Humiliating Russia & The Georgian Conflict
Fareed Zakaria--GPS-CNN
Russia Georgia Singapore
MAHBUBANI: The West had been humiliating Russia for almost 15 or 16 years. And Russia is a proud, old country. And if you keep humiliating them for so long, at some point they had to react.
And they reacted viciously, as you know, in Georgia, because they said, "Enough is enough. I do not want to have my face scrubbed in the dust one more time. This time I want to send a signal. I will draw a line."
And so, what amazed me is, all the Western commentary tried to portray Georgia as the victim of this exercise, even though the Georgian president instigated the exercise and the Russians were reacting. And of course, they were given the perfect excuse to react.
But they were sending a broader signal that there is a larger geopolitical issue...

Edward Lucas' thought experiment 2008
THE NEW COLD WAR
Putin's Russia and the Threat to the West
Edward Lucas
Pub date: Feb 2008
272 pages
Description
In late 1999 when Vladimir Putin was named Prime Minister, Russia was a budding democracy. Multiple parties campaigned for seats in the Duma, the nations parliament. The media criticized the government freely. Eight years later as Putin completes his second term as president of Russia and announces his bid for prime minister, the country is under a repressive regime. Human rights abuses are widespread. The Kremlin is openly hostile to the West. Yet the United States and Europe have been slow to confront the new reality, in effect, helping Russia win what experts are now calling the New Cold War.
Edward Lucas, former Moscow Bureau Chief for The Economist, offers a harrowing...
