My understanding was that Russia was able to kick the cabal out at one point, but they simply re-grouped and came after them a hundred years later (as the Bolsheviks who went bat-sheet crazy on the Russians through the 1930s to the end of WWII). We don't let them escape to fight another day this time. This is world-wide, and take local notes now of who's supporting the known bad actors. It won't be over just because of a quick military OP.
