John McCain thrives on conflict

and that’s why he is always trying to create one. Obama does his best to avoid them, and that’s why he smartly avoids John McCain.

John McCain never met a war he didn't like. After being a prisoner of war himself, I just can't get my head around his thought process.

I wonder why he's like that?

....because they don't know how to live without it. That also goes for some people whose PTSD originates in their being abused.

if he and his gang have operatives working behind the scenes to encourage or goad the macho Putin into deeper involvement in Ukraine while at the same time back home he's pushing to send bigger weapons to the Ukrainian gov't. If they can escalate on both ends like that, he and the MIC might be able to ignite the mother of all wars with Russia (fought with other people's kids) and they'll be RICH! RICH! RICH! while their propaganda machine can make it all look like Obama's fault. Win-Win!!!

It's conceivable that was the plan in Georgia as well but it didn't pan out. And Benghazi. And no telling where else they may be inciting violence behind the scenes for their own political and financial benefit.
