it's bizarre, too, to see ppl jump from "Russia's strategy is to extend a hand to friendly far-right groups" to "Russia controls them all"

And FAR more care needs to be taken in how The Gizmo's snazzy results get reported. Unbelievably sloppy reporting, followed by sloppy RTing.

No. I mean people who actually know a thing or two about foreign policy. EVEN THEY are misrepresenting what The Gizmo means.

Mr EW and I don't drink gin. Mostly just beer and wine (tho I am partial to Beamish over Guinness).
