    Are you younger than 30? I remember when we were trying to work with Post Soviet Russia. From Bush 1 all the way up to Obama. They had that chance. Then they took a giant shit in Syria and Crimea. 20 years of trying Rapprochment, at some point you have to draw a line and say these actions are not okay and we will not associate with a country that thinks they are.

      Greg Palast spoke about vulture capitalism, bit I’m sure that has nothing to do with anything. Perhaps insult rather than taking a few moments to reflect or ask may indicate more about ourselves than the other. Perhaps we’d do well to temper ourselves toward reflection a bit more.

      Anyway, you may or not disagree and may or not do a little digging, I have no control over you, nor do I wish to have; I’ve all I can do (and sometimes more) to manage my own disposition, and allotted time and resources. I wish you the best of days as I continue about mine.
