I say screw the Russian people. They put a KGB man in power. They made their nasty bed, so they can live with it. I also don’t believe for one instant that Russia is more spiritual. Abortion rates are massive in Russia.
Yes the country is one of enormous contradictions and demons don’t die quietly, but spiritually, there is so much potential for renewal.
I agree with everythng you wrote.

That article is from 2001. Little before GWB gazed into Putin’s eyes and saw his soul. Bush of course was fooled as Putin’s job in KGB used to be lying to people. He lied then because Russia was poor. After the oil boom he got the oil revenue windfall and showed his true colors by trying to convince the Chinese to help in crashing the US economy in 2008.
