I'm not allowed to knit what I want here? I don't complain when other knits what they want in my comments section. Yes, Yankies don't want to get involved with others' racist civil wars. By what metric is Russia winning? Everyone gets played. Everyone. That's something we understand in United States. It's interesting how you respect Russia's interest but not the Ukrainians. Russia is NOT being played by a corrupt KGB regime but Ukraine IS being played by the U.S.? So that's your position on Ukrainians? They're stupid?

Again, everyone gets played. I see that. But you seem to think Russians are not being played and really want to "fix" Ukraine. It's that delusion that will be another step down for Russia. Russia has experienced 8 years of brain drain because every smart Russian realizes they will get more getting "played" by the West than being played by Putin.

I'm fine if you stick with Putin. Knit what you want!
