question for me is the motivation behind the antipathy of the American
neo-liberals and neocons toward Russia. There are a lot of Jews
scattered among these groups. Is it a group memory of Tsarist pograms
that eats at them? Israel does not seem to have a special problem with
modern Russia. Is it Russia's relentless persecution of homosexuals?
There are a lot of LGBTQ supporters among the two groups. Or, do these
people see Russia as a plausible geopolitical rival for the US? Surely
it cannot be as simple, or simpleminded as that. The undying USSR as
chimera? Perhaps it is that.
