I always got the impression that Jack was supposed to be a child of the Cold War, with an ingrained antipathy towards the Russian military. I'm not sure if it was shown before 'The Tomb' -- maybe in 'Small Victories' or 'Watergate'? Or if it was even established well enough in previous eps to justify the rancor in that line. Or is it his turn of phrase that's ringing false to you, not that he's talking about a Russian operative?
Kinda begs for a pre-series fic going back to some unpleasant run-in he had with the Russian military in his black-ops days -- something to explain it being bitter and personal.
