Most of the highlighted stories involve American military or government assistance to the Ukrainian cause.  Directly or indirectly resulting in the deaths of Russian soldiers.  And turning up the pressure on Vladimir Putin,  who controls the nuclear weapons of Russia.  And who, especially now, may not be too stable.   Reports indicate Putin may have already ordered the murders of more than a half-dozen Russian Generals and oligarchs.

Russia may be characterized as a Bear, but we are ‘tickling the dragons tail’… look it up.
