None of these countries are actively trying to erase another country from the map right now.

The US is a democratic country so far, Russia is not.

It’s incredibly childish, stupid and dangerous to pretend that these countries are all equally evil.

Does being a democracy make the US a better country than the others? If it's the voters, and not a guy, who decides to invade and take over your country, then is it OK?

And while none of those countries may be involved in a military conflict right now, they've been in the past. Recently.

So given there is no good country selling gas right now, I prefer to get the cheapest one. Thanks.
