https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/194746.No_Longer_Human Something to read if you want to get really, really depressed. "Notes from Underground'' also fits into this category.

I admit that I'm wrong on this one, facts are facts.

but where do you stand then? on which axis? or do irish people have some epistemologically uniqe point of view which cannot be accesed by anyone else?

I see myself more as a 'callers voice in the desert' when it comes to these things; if there's something that's gonna undermine us it will be Western naivety concerning all things Russian.

That's a very cruel and heartless thing to say. Are you some sort of sadist?

As I understand, you are from the beyond the Pale; again - I get your point of view, but I must also say that Ireland as a country is sort of a parasite who only wants to reap all the benefits of saftey while giving nothing in return. There is no 'neutrality' in that sense.

Emphatically speaking, I can understand your point of view, but - no offence - what you're essentially doing is looking at abstract numbers on a computer screen. I'm quite sure that Germany's budget before WW2 also dwarfed in comparison with the combined budget of the rest of the rest of Western...

There's also an extreme propoganda effort now to show Russia an as regional power which only wants to maintain its dominance around the national borders, that's nothing but bollocks and people who toe that line will probably have a special place in hell. It is an ALL IN situation at this point...

I can only keep repeating my Eastern Euro spiel that English really, really do underestimate the Russian threat. I mean, I get it in a way, since England has been blessed with geographical location it has and it hasn't come under much outside pressure in a long, long time, but those stated facts...
