By "we," did you mean Canadians, or USA citizens? I'm not sure that the USA keeps beating Russia at hockey. I think it's usually the other way around.
Which frustrations is it that the USA is taking out on Mosul, Iraq, where the USA-coalition campaign is causing more than DOUBLE the destruction and average civilian death-toll per week as occurred throughout the campaign for Aleppo (which Aleppo civilians were thankful for, and celebrated in the streets of Aleppo as the extremists were pushed out of the city - of course, that wan't covered in G&M). The whole Aleppo thing in Western media was a deliberate distraction and decoy, intended to shield Western public from the worse atrocities happening from the USA-coalition's campaign in Mosul (which are still happening).
It's revolting to see so many people speaking arrogantly and hypocritically, thinking that know the score, when all they've done is lap up the propaganda that was intended to manipulate the more simple and prejudiced.
