Eggplant,
Forgive me if I sounded criticial, or, egads, pedantic.
It’s just that the FSB usage here has gotten universal and I think that we need to name our enemies precisely.
GRU is a monstrous and evil organization that slinked its way through the fall of the Soviet Union because it had no domestic enemies except the KGB. This viper resonates perfectly with native Russian xenophobia and naturally forms itself around the hand of its new master – Volodya Putin.
