That's the only way it works. Russian people don't believe the bullshit their government spews, it's not for domestic consumption. They're two decades further along, at least, than our own us reich wing in a post truth world. The war widows know they aren't getting paid - doesn't matter what the talking heads say on state tv, but that's not going to change their mind on a war for profit. They're trading their drunk, unemployed, and abusive husbands for a lada.

I doubt anything productive will come from our disagreement as we inhabit wholly separate universes complete with alternative facts.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
