Pre-WWIII Practice Exam<\/a><\/h1>\n

 <\/p>\n

Here\u2019s a simple way to test your understanding of the current US-Russia standoff. All you need to do is answer one very-basic question about the nature of the conflict, and that answer will determine whether you understand what is actually going on or not. Here\u2019s the question:<\/span><\/h3>\n

What is the source of the confrontation between the US and Russia in the Ukraine:<\/span><\/h3>\n
    \n
  1. \n

    Russia has amassed over 100,000 combat troops near Ukraine\u2019s eastern border and is threatening to invade.<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
  2. \n

    Russian President Vladimir Putin wants to rebuild the Soviet Empire by expanding Russia\u2019s territory beyond its borders.<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
  3. \n

    The western media has concocted a fake storyline about a \u201cRussian invasion\u201d to divert attention from Moscow\u2019s reasonable demands for legally-binding security guarantees that address the pressing issue of hostile foreign armies (NATO) and nuclear missiles on Russia\u2019s doorstep.<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n
  4. \n

    None of the above.<\/h3>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    If you picked Number 3, then pat yourself on the back, that is the right answer. (Please, see:\u00a0\u201cThere Is No Russian Invasion Threat To Ukraine\u201d<\/a>, Moon of Alabama; Quote: \u201cThe story of Russian preparations for an invasion of the Ukraine is made up from whole cloth.\u201d) The current crisis has nothing to do with the fictitious \u201cRussian invasion\u201d that was invented to conceal the real issue. The real issue is Russian security and the demands that Russia has made in the form of two draft treaty agreements. The western media\u2013 in concert with the Intelligence agencies, the Pentagon, the Biden administration, and the US foreign policy establishment\u2013 have done everything in their power to prevent the American people from reading the contents of these draft treaties for fear that they will see that\u00a0Russia\u2019s demands are both reasonable and appropriate.\u00a0Russia isn\u2019t asking for anything more than any sovereign country should expect. As FDR famously said, \u201cSecurity for one, is security for all.\u201d We support that sentiment and we think the American people do too.<\/span><\/h3>\n
