"Shut Up About NATO Expansion" is a fun video, well made.

But Mearsheimer's arguments are convincing.

We may find it ridiculous to be afraid of NATO or the USA. Others do not.

I think "Blood and Ruins" by Richard Overy is a great piece of work and a good account of the confusing history of the 1930s.

Munich was an "alliance" of Great Britain und Germany (and sort of Poland).

Then Germany and the Soviet Union allied against Poland.

Then Great Britain and The Soviet Union allied.

>The Russian paranoia hasn't changed much since Ivan The Terrible, long before neocons.

Prisoners of Geography is pop science but I like the chapter about Russia.

You can't defeat them, the NATO strategy has failed.

I sympathize with the Russian opposition, but I think it is wrong to interfere in Russian domestic politics.

Apart from that, I have always been suspicious of the West's favorite oligarchs.
