Russian president Vladimir Putin is a dangerous fellow, and it is clear that he is bent on restoring what he sees as the former glory of the Soviet Union to the slumping country of Russia. He has been aggressive and greedy in his resolve to control and expropriate areas such as the Crimea and parts of Ukraine, and has also pushed his way into the Middle East with the fight in Syria. Mitt Romney, though widely mocked during the 2012 presidential election, rightly identified Russia as our most important and dangerous enemy.
Putin is launching a new youth program that is both troubling and impressive. He has set up a military-patriotic youth movement that has echoes of the Cold War and the Hitler Youth programs, but that teach principles and provide training that would provide a useful and positive outcome for our own out-of-control, self-absorbed youth, something that would require discipline and training for the lost generations we see developing in the U.S. and Western Europe.
More on Putin’s youth program on page 2:
Teaching young people the defense of their country and themselves, learning a little self respect and physical training along the way is a horrible idea. Shame on him for not teaching them to be sniveling, whiny, disrespectful and needy.
There is nothing more than Putin, a former kGB, would like than to take Russia backwards in history. While Americans are so focused on all our problems, Putin is ‘playing his cards’ right in front us b/c he knows BHO hates America as much as he does. Can you imagine BHO shirtless on the back of a horse? Putin wanted the world to see his six pack chest; he hasn’t been pussyfooting on the golf course! Strength, power and control is Putin’s game. Putin isn’t worried about the older generations to start implementing a communist country. He will use a page out of$#%&!@*s book – brain wash the children. Now we can add another foreign policy failure to BHO. He made our military weaker than Russia. Putin isn’t our friend and there will come a time when America will have to deal with him.
Russians doing Russian things in Russia is not troubling. The fascist, Islamic supporting left in my country is.
What about our youth in CAP and other organizations like Boy Scouts and the like.
BIG DIFFERENCE BETWEEN$#%&!@*AND PUTIN. WHOEVER THINKS THERES ANY CONNECTION BETWEEN THEM IS FULL OF DOODOO.
You can call me whatever but I called common sense having the youth get in line and have order in their life is a lot better than what I’m seeing in Southern California so go$#%&!@*yourself left-wing liberal
