The typical
pettiness and vengefulness of the Obama administration was at full
display with yesterday's expulsion of 35 Russian diplomats and the
closing of two Russian estates in New York and Maryland. Obama also
sanctioned the Russian external intelligence service FSB and the
military intelligence service GRU as well as some of its leaders for
doing their job.
The move was
ostensibly over alleged but completely unproven Russian "hacking"
to influence the U.S. election. But the real reason is likely Obama's
loss of face after being left out of the successful negotiations of a
new ceasefire in Syria.
True to form
the Russian government responded with high-class trolling and
generosity.
