That is right on! Americans have no idea what Russia has suffered over the centuries and that we actually sent troops into the country during the revolution, but I guarantee you that all Russian children know this. This country started as an isolationist, self-supporting and no foreign entanglements. The founders stated this plainly. Washington spelled it out in no uncertain terms, but the empirical elements couldn't conceive of not being an empire and so the other America won out over the sensible America and now we are a failing empire. The destruction we perpetrated in other countries we now bring home to our own.
