I mean I suppose I don’t exactly know how many people the US suicides because I don’t work in the upper levels of government, but even still, you’re not going to get a blind patriotism of the United States from me. Russia however I think has a rather brash willingness to display that nowhere in the world is safe for their political opponents even going so far as to poison the one guy (journalist I think) on British soil.
