Hi Ralph. Not sure - Erdogan isn't exactly part of the Western European coalition, is he? I wonder - is this just Putin, or is it also the old guard contingent that uses him and his ego to front for their agenda?

And I wonder if you know ... what would we find if we looked a few hundred feet under the Kremlin? It feels to me like the docking station for the "mother ship" ... is that too far-fetched?
