No war threat confronts Russia
http://english.pravda.ru/main/18/88/351/15051_war.html

Russian specialists have already developed new models of arms

According to the forecast from the General Headquarters of the Russian Federation about the military, strategic and political situation, Russia does not have a direct threat of aggression from foreign states. According to the Chief of the General Headquarters of the Russian Armed Forces, Yuri Baluyevski, the development of the national well-being is the major goal of the Russian administration at the moment. "The government has a unique opportunity to straighten up now, if one may say so. Economic opportunities of the state allow to do it," Itar-Tass quoted General Baluyevski as saying.

"The Russian military administration had a goal to create the weaponry and defense technologies of future generations," Baluyevski said. Russian specialists have already developed new models of arms. The general mentioned the mobile missile complex Iskander as one of the brightest examples of such developments: "It will be the missile system of the future," the general said. For the time being, the Russian army command is dealing with the problem of introducing new military developments in the national army.

In addition, the structure of the Russian General Headquarters was optimized at the end of 2004: the agency was relieved of administrative and bureaucratic responsibilities. The department deals with strategic goals: analyzing, forecasting and searching for new forms of activities for the Russian Armed Forces that could be used against the background of new conditions and threats.

1. Sounds so reasonable, (a defensive attitude rather than an aggressive one)
- Russia does not have a direct threat of aggression from foreign states
- the development of the national well-being is the major goal
- the prime goal of the army is to restrain a possible war

2. The 'nation-state' such as Russia
is not the model being pursued for the techno-feudalism being planned for humanity. That is yet another reason why the "oligarchs" and others had it in mind to destroy Russia and break it into smaller units. They were going about it with clockwork precision until Yeltsin was finally forced out.

The plan is for a handful of giant corporations financed in London and New York to dictate the standard of living of the entire world. Don't you just love "freedom"? Wouldn't it be wonderful to die in Iraq so that your surviving family members could say you helped bring a few hundred thousand more square miles under control of The Pentagon's New Map?
