In an unrelated story, the Russian aircraft carrier under repair caught fire, again.
Smoking is a real safety hazard.
But these things happen. A roof repair gone sideways burned down a historic carousel in Rochester last century. Hot tar and open flames, and whoosh! I know a garage where every time I saw them use a gas welder on a customer's car, there was a minor fire and cursing. ( but they were so used to inadvertent pyromania, they always had a water hose nearby. )
And heck, they haven't had a bad fire on that ship in four years! You have to look at the Big picture.
Iirc, Barry had a lot of money donated to him by former Soviet bloc & Middle East folk. So much in fact, that his campaign had to quit recording origins of the money, ( by turning off credit card verification. ) to prevent delays. Nevermind that to buy a t-shirt from the campaign Absolutely required the verification.
This reflects both who Barry prefers to deal with and what he's selling.
Meanwhile, rich Russians seem to have a terrible balance problem and keep falling out windows, off balconies, and down stairs.
Don't have room to list them.
If I was a rich Russian, I'd go away and hide, preferably in a modest ranch house in American suburbia. No stairs. Low windows. Very Well paid security. Low profile.
It looks like US is desperately forcing damage control calling this navy seal "AWOL", "Ex", "Deserted", "Former" etc. That's dangerous game USA plays with Russia. Russia is not going to believe this BS, especially "AWOL" and "Deserted" are not equal to "Ex" or "Former". So it looks like the news channels did not have time to coordinate their lies.
I don't think breaking the Russian "republik" under Vladimir into smaller pieces is wise. I can see the One Land CCP faction want to invade & occupy Russia from the Pacific to the Arctic to the Urals and the 'stans.
I can also see India going hard realpolitik and exchanging a promise of peaceful alliance with China for a clear shot at Pakistan. I think Xi would be nuts to take that, but there's a nasty religious conflict between the CUP and Islam, and he might go Eastern Crusade to inspire/distract, get a short pipeline to Iran, and extend his borders to the Indian ocean. There aren't many western governments that would support Pakistan's resistance, with the War between Putin's Russia and Ukraine sucking up supplies and political will.
That the invasion of the 'stans would amplify a genocidal domestic policy to a Continental level is worth considering. How many European powers would buy into a "Eurasia for Eurasians" crusade? The EU might find partnership with the CCP very attractive, kindred spirits and the promise of unlimited power through an International Social Credit tyranny.
The WEF megarich Globalist gazillionaires that want a Utopia of bug eating serfs and themselves as benevolent wise overlords, may be as disposable as western intellectual elitists have always been, the delusional utopians who are first up against the wall after the Revolution.
Well, then Germany is going to be nuked. I just hope Russia will not nuke Germany before I received my motor for my electric bike I ordered from Germany.
Is that what you want to figure out? You are pushing the limits to find this out? You risk the lives of other people just because you think that Russia is not capable of it and because of you believe you are more capable than Russia?
Well, you play stupid game and you are going to win stupid prize.
