and nonhistoric:
by Michael Koffman:
The main thing for the United States and Germany is not to engage in this war with Russia. A war with Russia on the border with Russia is almost impossible to win. It is absurd. No one in history has won a war with Russia on its border!

I did not understand something. When and who won the war with Russia?

In the middle - Mongols, Turks, Prussians, Japanese, Finns. Listing them all?
Who won the "Cold War"?
Another issue is that the winnings were mostly local and Russia then usually (but not always) played off. Sometimes almost immediately, sometimes three hundred years later.
For a literate patriot, it would be good to know your history.
