It was not smart for the US to have so aggresively expanded NATO where it didn't belong and did not add to US security. This is payback, and of course it will hurt the US of A, and not the knuckleheads to devised the policiy of stupid expansion. Anyone with their head not up their bu**, would have spent some time as to how far we could push Russian. We seem to have had legitimate interests in Poland, and lesser interests in the Baltic three. But in any event we should have been as un-in their face as possible to Russian. Bush and his minions (string pullers) seemed to delight in embarassing the Russions. Stupid. Stupid beyond belief.
