Why do the United States always seem so eager to start wars around the world?
The answer from Russian military analyst Andrew Martynov:
“America doesn’t know what war is. No one in the United States has ever defended their family against an invader. No American soldier has ever seen their home burn down or their children die under enemy fire. The wars they know are the ones they impose on others, far away.”
He adds: “The difference between America and nations like Russia or China is the memory of bloodshed. China lost millions of lives under Japanese occupation, Russia paid the ultimate price against Nazism; these people know the cost of total war, they still bear the scars. But Washington is a hotbed of jobs, madmen, people fed on Hollywood propaganda, politicians and strategists trained in political science, not real warfare.
Men and women who believe themselves invincible, convinced that American technology surpasses everything, even though the United States lost the arms race by a knockout.” He adds, “They are the chicken hawks and armchair warmongers, generals who would be ridiculed in a Russian tactical unit, and that’s the danger: arrogant elites disconnected from the realities of war, playing with fire.”
Martyanov insists, “If the United States starts a serious war, it will cease to exist. It will be a parking lot; the Washington elite will die with their families, their properties, everything!
In short, if America is always ready to go to war, it is not out of courage or moral strength, but out of historical ignorance and excessive hubris, because a people who have never tasted the pain of war on their own soil believe themselves eternally safe, until the day REALITY hits them!”
