Sir Halford Mackinder's Heartland concept showing the situation of the "pivot area" established in the Theory of the Heartland. He later revised it to mark Northern Eurasia as a pivot while keeping area marked above as Heartland

The keystone to understanding both why Hitler elicited such fanatical opposition in WW2 and why the US so unreflexively opposes Russia now is this theory. It figures prominently in Dugin's geopolitical theories of Eurasianism. To quote Mackinder:

"Who rules Central and Eastern Europe commands the Heartland. Who rules the Heartland commands the World-Island. Who rules the World-Island commands the World."

The power that a Nazi Germany extending from the English Channel to the Urals would have had was obvious. Stopping Germany was a national security imperative looked at from the perspective of its enemies. Certainly Russia.

But Russia occupies much of this space now. And as such is in position to expand.

“It cannot be stressed enough that without Ukraine, Russia ceases to be an empire, but with Ukraine suborned and then subordinated, Russia automatically becomes an empire." - Zbigniew Brzeziński

It's all about security competition. And beyond the surface rhetoric of anti-Communism this dynamic drove US Cold War foreign policy. Russia was so dangerous that the US even aligned tacitly with Communist China.

This has precious little to do with 'Jews'. US elites were just as obsessively anti-Russian in the far more WASP oriented 40s and 50s in an era when Kennan composed the Long Telegram. It's safe to say the US would be anti-Russian regardless of who runs it. Because Russia, being what it is, is a threat to the USA's existence as a state.
