I agree with everything you say and will add just a bit of admiration for
the Ruskies.
Looking at their society over time it's a dam shame the authoritarianism and corruption
they have been conditioned to not only accept, but to seem to need.
A country full of intelligent, hard working, educated people. Natural resources
out the wazoo, and they are so corrupt they can't do fiddly.
As to the war, two countries had the world on the rocks, and it took a big effort
From a lot of places to make it right. You all, were in the front row.
Both wars, we were late to the show.
