"U.S. officials said they expect the administration to begin a military-to-military dialogue with Russia in the coming days. The Pentagon will take the lead in the discussions but the exact level, venue and timing have yet to be determined, officials said." John Kerry announced that the Russians had offered to begin talks yesterday. This came about as a result of his phone calls with Sergey Lavrov, the Foreign Minister of Russia. I believe it is necessary for the U.S. and Russia to open discussions to avoid possible future misunderstanding and conflicts. Kerry says, "the administration is still weighing it's merits". What do you think about this?

Hey if the Russians are going to occupy someplace please let it be the Middle East. They can be pissed at the Russians for a while. We already have spent our time in the barrel.

I think we're starting to realize Assad is better than the alternate. Mixing it up with Russia over this one would be dumb.

I think (hope) we've learned that sometimes even awful dictators are better than international terrorists. SGT Jeremiah B.

CPT (Join to see) Russia is the sole (potential) country on the planet that scares me. North Korea doesn't scare me...unless the Russians join them. China doesn't scare me...unless the Russians join them. Iran doesn't scare me...unless the Russians back them.
The Russians have defeated Ceasar, Napoleon, Alexander, Ghengis Khan...Hitler. They are the single greatest (potential) threat in the world to us today. Not China. Not North Korea.
So it would behoove us, yes, to talk. Rather than fight.

SN Greg Wright If you are discounting the Chinese you are woefully misinformed. Russians don't own half of the US., but China does. If you are worried about an invasion you are a little late. China invaded us years ago through Wall St. and if they ever pull out our economy will last about 3 weeks before we all starve to death.

SGT William Howell - Economic power isn't military power, which is the discussion here. Having said that, your example is a little sensationalized imo. This country has always been capable of supporting itself, in every area: food, industry, blah blah blah. We just need to stop doing it for the rest of the world in the situation you bring up.

SN Greg Wright War is war and no matter how it happens as long as the end result is defeat on ones enemies you win. I still think it would take us years to recover from a financial collapse.

If it is any consolation I have fought with the Ukrainians (Well we fought, the Ukrainians watched) in Iraq. If Russia is anything like Ukraine they have not got a chance against us. They made ISIS look organized.
