While the United States are the number 1 in the world and Russia second.

The Russian military have been more effective lately than the US, they were able to overwhelm Georgia and made progress in Syria which lead to the establishment of a permanent base there and a sure economical benefits when the Syria economy starts booming again.

Now, the US attack on Libya and Afghanistan was what some will say a failure, with the Libya own making other NATO members question their actions.

The US fights and try to replace government unlike Russia and that's their problem, they always intend to place their pattern of government to other nations which they never succeeded as in the case of Libya.

The US army lack proper planning at times, in some situations they fail to create an exit plan unlike the Russia military whom are very effective.

Now to the above statement I think this is down to the fact Russia's president whom for long has been in power and we all also know he was part of the Russian force and he is definitely skilled and tactical unlike the US which have seen different Presidents with different approach.

The US might be superior to Russia in military terms but we all do know war has no victor only those who survived and the US will do every thing to prevent that from happen to avoid anything that will bring their economy down.

Now they is nothing like Western Propaganda, the US might not be right in their actions with some certain issue and those are mistake and the issue of CNN along with the rest we all saw their actions during the Trump impeachment and the Election, for example during the Iran and US face off, everyone was expecting retaliation from US after their base was attacked by Iranian missiles, then Trump clearly say he won't do such but increase the sanctions on Iran, after the speech a CNN reporter said Trump was going to attack Iran and that was the day I knew they can't be trusted at all.

We should never judge a country by it's leaders, they are good people so they are bad ones and most has made bad decisions and also good ones.

All am saying is we should stop insulting these countries, for example Nigeria is a great nation but our leaders are the ones bringing her to her knees.

My own opinion what's your view.
