Truly, two countries divided by a common language.

(1) Russia is a world power soley based on its nuclear arms. That makes it threat.

(2) if the tide turned in 1914, why did the US have to enter in 1917? Considering the advances by the Germans in the summer of 1918, it was only Pershing’s men that stood between the Germans and Paris. But, then the German citizenry rose up forcing Ludendorff’s hand in stepping down.

(3) Right, again, if the tide had turned in ‘42, why were we decisive in the ending the war with the Russian Army’s assisting from the east. Could France and UK defeated Germany alone by crossing the Channel?

Why, oh why, are we doing Putin's work for him? Divide and conquer. I'm as proud a Brit as anyone, but I'm also very grateful that the Americans have been with us when needed. Stop this bickering , children

Copy Dad,
I’m just saying spying is dangerous work, double agent spying is even more so. Many spies on both sides have disappeared over the years, so this event is not something rational nations war over. Here’s a excerpt from one of are very own musing in public about how he would handle Snowden.

"I think if we had the chance, we would end it very quickly," [an Army intelligence officer] said. "Just casually walking on the streets of Moscow, coming back from buying his groceries. Going back to his flat and he is casually poked by a passerby. He thinks nothing of it at the time starts to feel a little woozy and thinks it's a parasite from the local water. He goes home very innocently and next thing you know he dies in the shower."

Sound familiar?
