If what I've read is true, Russia was reborn at a core level and is using a different Light to see the world with than the Soviets used.

Yesterday's Soviets were evil and so is today's ISIL/ISIS.

Today's Russia was born from the Soviet ashes in fundamental transformation and today's Russians are bombing the Hell out of the evil ISIL.

That alone doesn't mean that Russia hasn't or won't again fall to the dark side, but I'm betting that they are on a higher mission these days.

I'm not so sure about US, though.

We're undergoing a "fundamental transmogrification" and are not doing so well with the talents and mission we were given.

Use it or lose it? Have the Russians been given the mission that we had been given?

“Have the Russians been given the mission that we had been given?”

The Russians have taken the mission that was rejected by the godless, soulless, evil being that inhabits our White House.
