Good to know. I was fearful that between past terrorist attacks, Trumps incoming term, and a story that today someone shelled the Russian embassy that these events were all related. However, that was silly. Of course every nation has it's problems.
Russia's embassy being attacked in Syria no less is pretty clearly because of what they've been doing in Syria.

Kerry throwing shade at Israel

Beyond just getting "fuck you" shots in, I think Obama's thinking on actually enacting things that will create a mess for Trump's intentions.
The news about this, which has notable bipartisan congressional support, is of the same thing.
Russia can be fucked in ways that require a majority of congress to undo.
Which will if nothing else require Trump to wrangle with congress, which will also throw the Russia connections under a spotlight.
It's some damn fine monkey wrenching.
The Russia matter is possibly the biggest disconnect between Trump and old guard Republicans, its the achilles heel if ever there was one.
