I liked your sensible post and your winged avatar.

That's why I wrote this.

Oh, you're from Russia and inviting me. So thanks. I thought you were an angry American telling me to go away, haha!

You're right.

I am Russian and this was not an act of your expulsion from the USA.

I've always felt that the common folk of most nations have no quarrel with each other, and we should put their leaders in a rubber room and let them duke it out until they figure out how to get along!

I don't think it's that simple.

The point of view of ordinary people is rather limited and they do not see many of the mechanisms by which the state exists.
