According to recent comments by the Secretary of Defense, the Cold War may very well be revived within our lifetime.
After the collapse of communism in 1991, many believed that the Russian threat was no more. As the threat from the Middle East increased and culminated in the attacks of September 11th, 2001, the focus shifted to the more nebulous threat of Islamic terrorism. However, it seems the Pentagon is getting ready to change that focus again.
Speaking at a press conference, Defense Secretary Ashton Carter provided a list of challenges that the US will need to respond to in the near future. Topping the list was not ISIS or Al Qaeda, but Russia, followed by China, North Korea, Iran, and ending with terrorism.
Carter’s numbering will likely prove controversial. Some will agree that Russia needs to be contained in light of it’s actions in Ukraine, while others may contend that the US should concentrate on defeating ISIS and it’s fellow jihadist groups.

Hurry Hurry deflect quick. It doesn’t work anymore. Obama is a loser and all of you last minute cabinet people and the like will end your careers with him, into oblivion. moron
Oh come on, get real! Our ISIS leader is the real threat.
Americans are Useful Idiots, and the men and women who write military policy at the Pentagon know it, and exploit it. Yes, it’s true, the Patriots are an AFC, threat to the Broncos strategically, but that doesn’t mean they have plans to kill the quarterback. This is how Americans are fooled into mind control for the sake of the wishes of those who make war for profit, and political gain…..
Looks like our government is wrong again, but what are they right about?
