Come on, guys!
You are supposed to know better than the average layman who chews the cud their TV sets have been feeding them...
There are not any Russians, Americans, Chinese, Europeans, et cetera PEOPLE to blame.
If you want to blame someone(s), you 'd better blame those people's INCORPORATED GOVERNMENTS, that have always been dancing to the rhythm the (multicultural and stateless) INTERNATIONAL BANKERS have been whistling to them. Especially after the era of the Napoleonean Wars, where these practices have been boringly happening in the open... At least, in the past, those banking institutes were disguised as the local Priesthoods of Mesopotamia, Persia, Greece, Rome, etc., and their practices were also disguised as the oracles or the prophecies or the wills of the local gods or you-name-it...
Do never forget that PEOPLE != THEIR_GOVERNMENTS because the vast majority of the people follow their cultivism (the unwritten law that was passed to them by their own parents) but the members of their governments follow their own unhumane torridity obsessions and manias...
