Why is it that the Russophobes hate Putin so much? One thing is certain: they don't hate him because of Putin and Russia's supposed lack of democracy, human rights, etc. since the US is a way bigger violator of these than Russia.
Also, how would US citizens feel if the situation was reversed, where Russia is in the position of the US, and US is in the position of Russia? Would Americans like having the Russian govt. ordering them around, telling them how to run their country, and interfering in their elections?
Would Americans like it if Russia secretly sponsored separatist groups inside the US who terrorize the rest of the country? Would they like it if Russia bought off corrupt politicians and setup organizations (NGOs) which did Russia's bidding and put Russia's interests above the interests of the US and its citizens?
How would they like it when a patriotic and independent US leader came along who resisted this Russian interference, put US interests first, and got punished for it with economic sanctions?
US has grown to love war. War got them out of the depression. War made many of them wealthy. The US has been on a permanent war footing since 1945.
The US regime knows it can't get what it wants by negotiations and compromise, since no one would willingly agree to be killed and robbed. So the US regime resorts to aggression--right after they manufacture a boogeyman (Putin, Saddam), or launch a false flag attack (9/11, Tonkin, Syria gas attack).
The US loves its enemies more than it loves its vassals. The latter is an added expense, a burden, really. The former is a reason to take whatever wealth is left in the treasury, and steal whatever wealth/resources another country has.
Russia is the US regime's priority target today. It's the largest nation on earth, contains an abundance of valuable natural resources, and connects Europe with Asia. Controlling Russia is a crucial component of the US Asia pivot. It's also the key to controlling Europe, which is heavily-dependent on Russian energy, and will be for an indefinite period of time.
The US regime wouldn't be acting the way it does toward Russia and Putin if Russia was worthless and didn't have any benefit. The mess the west created in the Ukraine is all about indirectly confronting Russia by using Ukraine as a proxy.
Russian president Vladimir Putin knows all this. He knows what's at stake, and he knows what to do. As long as he or someone like him is leading Russia, the US doesn't stand a chance.
