No, no, it's the idea that someone in production pranked the presentation with a subtle jab about notorious marauding thieves.

Yes, that's a fun take on it. But I figure it was subtle enough that the producers used the image cynically, as suiting their purpose with naive viewers.

Sweden may do the same very soon. Your dirty little war has consequences, Pootin!

Some real consequences!

It has f#^ked up Europe and enhanced China.
As to the fragile economy of the US?

Russia is now more dependent on China.

I came across this recent interview with Kissinger.

He speaks even more slowly but his mind still seems sharp.

His Russia comments are interesting. The whole way he approaches international relations is also a lesson IMO.
