No one is angry about anything. It's a meeting of minds here, now.

Antagonism in response to previous antagonism is, at the very least, understandable.

Next question then: was the response ... proportionate? You know, blockading a a whole city, so that nothing can get in, not even diapers or baby food? That's like, an act of war, right? In response to -- currency reform?

More specifically: would you say the Soviet response to that situation was -- "understandable"? Would you now?

Or was it more like -- dumbshit recklessness?
