8. We are in a 21st century war with Russia.

We have been in this war since 2000. Russia is winning.

1. for many years we did not believe we were in a war-we associate war primarily with guns, bombs, and military might or the threat of military might-but that is not primarily the nature of 21st century warfare.

2. many of us still do not acknowledge that we are in a war or that some of us have been used as tools in the war

3. until recently Russia has been able to wage its war in secret, giving Russia the advantage.

4. that advantage has proven to be so significant that even now, as knowledge of the war is seeping out across the U.S, Russia is continuing its attacks
