Russia has been waging war on the West for at least 10 years, and the West hasn’t bothered to notice. This is not, to be sure, a conventional war, with Russian tanks invading Poland or Russian missiles hitting Pittsburgh. This time the United States and Europe did respond with sanctions — but not strongly enough to dissuade him. In 2015, Putin entered the Syrian civil war to help a criminal regime commit war crimes against its own people. BuzzFeed reported last year that Putin may have killed 14 people in Britain and at least one in the United States.
