#OTD in #history, 1904, American diplomat George F. Kennan was born. He is most famous for his role in shaping the #UnitedStates' Cold War policy after WW2, arguing for "containment of Russian expansive tendencies" that led #Congress to pass foreign aid such as the Marshall Plan.

#OTD 1946: : #GeorgeKennan, the American Charge d'affaires in Moscow sent what is called the #longtelegram to the State Department. He was convinced that the Soviets would try to expand their sphere of influence and could not foresee peaceful coexistence with the West.
The telegram was 8000 words. Kennan, writing as “Mr. X,” published an outline of his philosophy in the prestigious journal Foreign Affairs in 1947.
Kennan’s Long Telegram incited intellectual policy debate that formed the basis of US policy towards the Soviet Union, including the Truman Doctrine and the Marshall Plan.

Read #GeorgeKennans #LongTelegram/#KennansLongTelegram for useful insight into #Russian/#Orc mindset/mentality. #Russians/#Orcs only respect power and use thereof. Let this incident slide & they will do it again but escalate until there is pushback or they get what they want.
BREAKING:
An American MQ-9 drone has been downed over international waters in the Black Sea by 2 Russian Su-27 fighter jets.
Before downing the drone, the Russian planes dropped fuel on it.
This is a Russian attack on the U.S. military. A response is necessary.

@rynkrynk @IamBohhi In the ##LongTelegram, an American diplomat explained the Soviet system back in 1946 and why the West must stand strong. His words can still explain a lot today.

@shaun_riordan @TomekDeptuch @nglinsman @HarrisSamaras @The_Real_Fly @Halsrethink @DietmarPichler1 Heck Shaun, I am not even sure the West knows what "victory" means any more. It's one thing to be George McKennan, a VERY different kettle of fish to be John Kerry. #LongTelegram

On India's part, positive moves so far (and reflecting Kennan's) policy recco of long-term, patient but firm (and vigilant) containment of expansionism BEREFT of outward histrionics, while preserving the Chinese people's sense of pride. #LongTelegram
