The money being broken does seem to be why America is involved even in the slightest.Though the UK's been trying to take down Russia even from before the money broke -- they've been at odds arguably since they discovered the place, and more openly since 1649, when Charles I was executed, 45 years prior to the founding of the Bank of England.

The long and short of it is, Britain has always subsisted on maritime power. Maritime empires are threatened by land based empires, and vice versa. The same reason they took down the Ottoman empire (and continue to support the Zionist occupation despite all manner of inhumanity to prevent another power center arising) is why they cannot tolerate a strong Russia.

And fair enough -- let them fight it out. But Russia is the nation that came to the union's aid when Britain was backing the Confederacy. Russia is the nation that sold us Alaska for a handful of peanuts. And Britain is the nation that we had to fight three wars against, only to then still get dragged back into the influence of by the very president who also signed the Federal Reserve Act and instated the Income Tax, when he dragged us into WWI despite having no business there of our own. Incidentally, also the first democrat since the Civil War.

So, their fight can go on -- England likes to take things that don't belong to it, Russia likes to take things that don't belong to it. But why on Earth America would be involved in something that isn't its fight, against the side that has done us much more aggression throughout history on top of it, is beyond me, short of the fact that we have a compromised administrative state. And no, I don't hold much faith that Trump is going to really tear out the roots, even if he is pruning them back a bit.

As for why the mainstream culture in America doesn't see things this way, there's perhaps two issues: One of course is that the media, as we now have proof of, has been puppeted by the very same administrative state. But the other, perhaps bigger issue is that to Americans, just like 100 miles is a long distance to Europeans, 100 years is a long time. Those who forget the battles their forefathers fought for their sovereignty will be caught off guard when it comes time again to defend it.
