In the wake of all of the Brexit vote, a chilling blurb made headlines and it went largely unnoticed and uncommented upon.\u00a0 The line was couched within comments made by Boris Titov, an economic policy maker for Russia\u2019s Kremlin.\u00a0 Actually all of the following merits attention, but one line stands out.\u00a0 The source for this excerpt is a Facebook post by Titov.\u00a0 Here it is:<\/p>\n

\u201c\u2026it seems it has happened \u2014 UK out!!!\u00a0 In my opinion, the most important long-term consequence of all this is that the exit will take Europe away from the anglo-saxons, meaning from the USA. It\u2019s not the independence of Britain from Europe, but the independence of Europe from the USA.\u00a0 And it\u2019s not long until a united Eurasia \u2014 about 10 years.\u201d<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

This is a very revealing post to show how unfavorably the past 50 years of post-World War II American imperialism has been viewed.\u00a0 The tipping point, as\u00a0mentioned in a previous article<\/a>was the outright 180-degree that George H.W. Bush pulled on Mikhail Gorbachev: the promise of NATO membership upon reunification of the two Germany\u2019s and the dissolution of the Soviet Union, and then not fulfilling that promise.<\/p>\n

The American corporate interests inserted themselves, as the communist government shattered, leaving in its wake oligarchs, the Russian mafia, and a \u201cWild West\u201d environment within Russia proper and the ex-SSR\u2019s, the former Soviet satellite nations.\u00a0 A tremendous amount of chaos occurred for a decade that was both enabled and further fostered by the United States.\u00a0 The perception in Russia even before the Soviet Union came into being was that Russians were in an economic war with Great Britain, and the United States was looked upon as an \u201cextension\u201d of Britain: a country with language, law, and cultural parallels,especially in terms of expansion.<\/p>\n
