Putin has become a character of American religion, such that it takes some effort to have a rational thought about him, and if you make the effort you will be rewarded with an inquisition!
I think of the king who said, "Won't someone rid me of this troublesome priest?" and then when the priest was killed the king crawled to the cathedral in penance.
But say Putin did not hold the gun & "you are excusing the devil!"

I think this book just called me old because Gorbachev is about to take power and the author is going on about "little known" items of history that were in the paper and on the evening news every day in those days, I was alive then I am alive now I know that!

In the one star reviews for the book I just read, Wilmington’s Lies, the top complaint is too many names. That was one generation in one fairly small town. If those readers took on 3+ generations in all of Russia as we see here their heads would explode. Mine might.
