Fair enough. I go nuts because, after all this time, in some cases, years, there are many among us who STILL apparently don't get it on Putin and what he is up to. And I can understand that to a point, because this stuff is rather complex. The Russians are master of deception. They play 3-D chess, while many if not most of us suck at simple checkers. In any event, assuming you actually are sincere in your (American) patriotism, please at least take a quick glance at the info I've provided here, and also at my FR Home page if further interested. It's actually highly important stuff we're talking about here with an increasingly aggressive expansionist Russia on the move both in Eastern Europe and now the Middle East.
ETL - keep up the good work, and don’t let those asking us to lower our guard for any of their silly reasons ever talk you into it, not that I think you ever actually would.
