You contribute to their wealth in more ways then one, now you just need to process into the military to fully seal the deal...

You pay their bills.
You already ARE.

Smart, I hadn't thought of that.. although I was thinking along the same lines. There have been a lot of attempts to provoke Russia lately.

When was the last time anyone paid the US "aid" for I don't know anything?
What Multi-national task force have you worked for these past few years?
People that went to war with the US wasn't really help it was about legitimacy not about help, further by others "help" who got helped?
The United States wants to give two teams of Canadian snipers the Bronze Star, a decoration for bravery, for their work in rooting out Taliban and al-Qaeda holdouts in eastern Afghanistan, but Canadian defence officials put the medals on hold, the National Post has learned.
The five snipers spent 19 days fighting alongside the scout platoon of the United States Army's 187th "Rakkasan" brigade last month, clearing out diehard fighters from the mountains near Gardez in eastern Afghanistan.
The Americans were so impressed by the Canadian snipers that they recommended them for medals after the battle.
Many of the U.S. scouts who worked directly with the Canadian snipers were incensed that the Canadians did not get the Bronze Star, the medal for bravery the U.S. military usually gives foreign soldiers serving alongside its troops.
Sources told the Post that U.S. General Warren Edwards had already signed the recommendation for five Bronze Stars for the sniper teams, drawn from 3rd Battalion, Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry, last month. Gen. Edwards, deputy commanding general of coalition land forces in Afghanistan, had recommended three Canadians for a Bronze Star and two for a Bronze Star with distinction.

There is no such a thing as Soviet Union anymore.. that treaty have had its expiration day long ago. Russia has never signed such a treaty.
The treaty is from 1994 the Soviet Union went belly up in 1991.
Russia proper signed it. It's binding. Or should be...

What? You mean we could get pulled into a war and it wouldn't be Bush's fault?!
This would stink, but a treaty is a treaty and if we singed it, we should honor it otherwise we don't deserve to expect anyone to ever help us anywhere ever again.

Ask a native American how much value the US government puts in treaties that they sign.

The US Government as it's currently being led, would most likely surrender totally to Russia, giving them complete control over us. What with the Russian troops being trained on US soil by FEMA...the FEMA camps setup already...etc...
