Putin has his agenda in Russia, and Communism still has its presence. The thing is though that Russia, in my humble opinion, in good time may or will outdo the United States of America. For one thing, aside from the future conversion of the nation to the Catholic faith as predicted by Our Lady at Fatima, Russia has a stronger cultural foundation. What does the U.S.A. have? Pop culture and a pluralistic melting pot that lacks coherence and central identity. Sure, there are actually some good and wholesome parts of the U.S. that have substantial cultural roots, but they are more local as opposed to national and risk being lost or are being lost. I am sorry if I speak off topic here, but in taking things back to the original topic, I would say that the U.S. government and Israel are the enemy, but Russia is something of a tool being used by the powers that be still even though Putin has done some apparently good things.
