Red Don, Russian mobsters and Putin's Playground

[Lauren Johnson]

Tracy, it would be helpful for all if you put up one post that summarizes your position. I doubt the Coup thread is all that cooled off, just quieter for now. If you favored us with that kind of post, I would be less inclined to think you are starting up this thread to pick a scab. Maybe that's not fair to you, but it does feel a little that way to me.
