Hillary Clinton was speaking to Russian college students this week. She was admonishing those in the U.S. and Russian governments that many of them are not over the Cold War. Clinton said that these people are living in the past, and need to move on, and because of that they are unable to make decisions in the preset involving missile defenses because they don't trust each other. Clinton said, "Let's be smarter than our past." She also offered to bring a new attitude bring to the relationship.
I think Hillary has a very good point in that we need to get over the past. If Germany was still mad at us for beating them in WWII, they wouldn't cooperate with us at all. We, U.S. and Russia, need to get over what happened between us, and get our acts together. We were once the two powerhouses of the world and now we are acting like children. Once we get over the past, we will finally be ready for what will happen in years to come.
