I do not support Russia in any of those posts, nor do I oppose Russia in any of them either. I do wholeheartedly oppose our going to war with Russia over Ukraine, or even involving our military in operations on the Russian border. I do oppose economic sanctions against Russia as well. Sanctions are hypocritical on our part and look likely to become wildly counterproductive anyway.

Try to not be so quick to jump to conclusions about what I support in the future, OK?
