No, The Middle East and probably political reasons we civilians don't know of is causing Greece to go on high alert, cause Muslims, also Replying to @jandlms, Greece has had the draft since 1914, but this is not the usual turn 18 go to military draft, this is a mass scale exercise of readiness calling all men under 41.

Well Turkey has definitely increased their surveillance of the Greek Islands. Image shows:

4 baykar TB-2--I've seen up to 6 of these on any given day mostly around the Greek Islands.
1 Baykar Akinci--First time I've seen one of these up.
1 BE-20--Flight path suggest Cartography plane.
1 AT76--Maritime Patrol

Maybe Turkey and Greek relations are a bit strained these days.

No, Russia has always been obsessed by being seen as European... even though they have been most influenced by the Mongols/Huns.

They have many neighbors to beat-up, occupy, imitate.... the riches of Europe have been there for the taking. In fact, it's reflected in their art and in their music. I consider Russian classical music superior to European.

USA, on the other hand, is only 300 years old. It has always needed a 'bad guy' to define itself as the 'good guy'. From fighting against natives, slavery, nazis, you finally found the best bad-guy ever.

The Russians gave you the Cold War, the Space Race, and NATO.

Sometimes, give the enemy a salute too.

Socialist Commies, Radical leftists? I'd rather get the clap, at least that's curable.

Russian art and music...

I sang in the choir in high school and early university.
Getting to do the Russian chorale stuff was always awesome. That stuff has a feeling of power and a sense of...foreboding at least, sometimes straight up impending doom.
There is no other music as powerful.

Another favorite was what were called "***** spirituals". Another music with great feeling in it, except in this case done by a bunch of pasty white kids from the upper Midwest. :p
