    Israel makes more sense as a peace broker than an enforcer in this instance.

    Well, I hope they schlelpp down some triple-decker corned beef and pastrami sandwiches with Russian dressing and cole slaw to feed  Vladimir and the boys.  Nothing like negotiating on a satisfied stomach....

    Well, looks like she was arrested last month.
     

     


    Foreign hostage taking in advance of the invasion? Now being used for pressure in the US? Putin counting on her race/gender/sexuality to play a role in dividing what he sees as the president’s base?

     

    She has been in prison all this time?  And we're just hearing about it now??

    I don’t know. Reading the reports, it looks like they’re nailing her for CBD oil vape cartridges. That’s really really specific, and more the kind of thing an American would think is no big deal than a thing the Russians would use to plant evidence. 

    Having said that, it is the kind of thing they probably would have overlooked under different circumstances. Also, I don’t think it’s just being a high profile name. She has very masculine features and is an openly gay woman while Putin is extremely anti transgender (Griner is NOT transgender, but is often mistaken for such) and certainly anti homosexual. If you don’t think that’s playing a factor here you’re being naive. 

    All of the above.  Unfortunately, she has all of the ingredients for Putin to make an example of.

    Almost certainly planted.  She might be the most high profile name wanting to leave that they could nab to hold hostage.  I expect we will eventually pay a heavy ransom (not necessarily monetary) for her release.

    She was smoking weed at Baylor, and has ever since.  Not a surprise.   Just hope this doesn't turn into an ugly international incident.
