Agree for the most part. That said I do not put the possibility of a war as low as you do, Putin cannot be trusted, no KGB agent can be. They have been playing the close encounter game for a while now and it seems to be becoming more frequent, seems to be a common theme these days the Chinese are doing the same with the Japanese. The world is getting more and more dangerous as the Powers flex their muscles, all it takes is one incident and the World is at war and it would be something no one will want to repeat if anyone is around to do so. What gave me concern was with the so-called hacking attempts supposedly done by the Russians, we know the Chinese do it all the time, one of the efforts hardly mentioned was them attempting to hack into a power grid. Now that has only One purpose, to shut down the grid in a part or the entire Nation, mess that up and this Nation will eat itself alive if it were to last too long. So, you may believe that it is all for show and a "test", I hope you are right, but I will remain the skeptic and wait and see where it is going, it may all blow over, or it could all change in the blink of an eye.
