USA has a history of interfering into other nations, such as Iraq bombing. Or operation Condor. We sure are afraid of a country that can declare that we have weapons of mass destruction and bomb us out, if they so wish. Do I believe that US/NATO wanted to shoot at us? No. But I do believe they want to keep us at the gunpoint

Why do you feel the west is doing this? What do you and other Russians think the motive is?
