Russian neocons are no better than the American ones but jumping on them is a kind of hypocrisy isn’t it?
Both are evil but Russian ones may legitimately claim they are on defence and their actions are counter-reaction.
A broken windows theory and it is not Russia who broken a first window.

Bears are grumpy creatures at the best of times but continually poking them with a stick will illicit a negative reaction. What is it with all this poking? Have our masters decided the only bear they like is a dancing one on a chain and that this one must be brought to heal? Good luck with that!

Usually it IS Russia behind a mess, any mess, which you can tell by the automatic excuse-making of its apologists.

Russia has always been heavily involved with terrorism, financing civil wars, and de-stabilization of other countries' governments, so to say Russia is innocent is a laughable stretch. There's whole sections of Africa experiencing misery and deprivation because of Russian meddling in their affairs.

So "Blame Russia" is usually a safe bet.
