"Hello, Lenin!" Three Components of America's Misguided Foreign Policy The Bolsheviks sacrificed Russia's interests in pursuit of their internationalist ideology based on three components described by Lenin. Eerily, America's misguided globalist policy contrary to working Americans' interests also rests on three components: 1. Money for the Deep State (military-industrial complex on steroids); 2.
