That's amazing - Pre-Baltic hates Russians and usually does everything they can to piss off the bear.

Lithuania has a strong connection, however, through Patriarch Alexy and the Orthodox church. My guess, anyway. Alexy was just there not too long ago.

Note the use of the words "religious hatred", also.

Yes, but only a complete FOOL would come between a bear and her whelps.
The website in question might be considered by The Bear as an accessory to the wanton butchery of hundreds of her children.
And she's getting ready to take revenge.

Ok I was wrong. Alexy was just in Estonia, not Lithuania. (He is Estonian by birth).
However, this Link shows some of the strength of the connection, I think.
