It was a jar of Borscht you dumb Bolsheviks. Everyone knows that you get mortar shells at “Shells R Us”, Rehobeth, Delaware.
Mae West: “Is that a mortar shell in your pocket or are you just exploding with joy to see me?”
I am fairly sure we backed out of the missile treaty after we found out the russkies were using their copy to wipe their butts.
Just sayin’

Whoever the embassy employee was, he does not appear to have been very bright. I wonder if the opposite would have happened here in the states what we would have done? I guess the Russians were fairly tolerant about this incident, confiscated it and sent this American dummy on his way back home. Probably would not be surprised if he was one of Mueller’s disciples or related to queen Nancy.
According to multiple news sources, the US State Dept has confirmed an employee who had completed his assignment in Moscow had a mortar that posed “no threat”.
It was a mine without explosives and still had a fuse. Dumbass. I worked with these people for eight long years and retired (stopped working before 55) immediately upon eligibility. I had 38 years of govt service, most or about 28 with DOD. If I had never became a member of our foreign service, I would still be working and happy with the people I worked with. When you work with lying self interested people who ALL THINK THEY ARE THE SMARTEST PERSON IN THE ROOM, it makes for a long day.
