Unrest in Russia

Recently, several photos were taken of “Military build up” in Russia near Ukraine.  The photos were taken because NATO has instructed Russia to remove its forces away from Ukraine.  Many people believe that Russia wants to invade Ukraine and take the land.  The photos show all kinds of different attack weapons that vary from helicopters, tanks, fighter jets, ground troops, and missiles. 

            Many people would argue that war is required for life on earth to happen.  It is hard to say that wars are bad and that we should all just live hand in hand.  The United States navy has a slogan that says, “A global force for good.”  This in my opinion stirs up a lot of talk.  The idea that America is the police of the world has a sting to it.  Why is it our job to fix and Americanize another country when they are fighting amongst themselves?  Now like anything else this comes with exceptions.  For example, in world war two we were called to go and help the persecuted but in other situations where we just stick our heads into other countries business that is uncalled for.  Hopefully in the future as our country grows and matures we will keep to ourselves unless we are called upon.
