Those were not Joe Biden’s exact words. He said we will not send American troops into Ukraine to confront Russia. Along with NATO nations also not sending troops to Ukraine the message to Vladimir Putin was clear. Go ahead and decimate Ukraine if you must and Western Europe and other democracies will only send help and lecture Russia about its bad behavior.
Just in case the USA or any members of NATO are contemplating getting involved Putin put his nuclear weapons group on alert and now has followed up with a test of an ICBM.
My question in when do we confront Russia? Will that be in Alsace-Lorraine, at the White Cliffs of Dover, or at the Atlantic City Board Walk?
Rather than FDR’s Lend-Lease program to aid the UK in March 1941 imagine the United States entered the war against Hitler. Perhaps that would have saved lives not only in the UK but all of Europe. The UK confronted Hitler in September 1939 while the United States sat on its hands. What would have happened if the United States had entered the war in early 1940?
It appears we did not learn anything about handling dictators who dream of conquering their neighbors. We have been told that the United States has the most powerful military in the world. When do we deploy that force?

We deploy that force in the very moment that we all decide to commit suicide. I, for one, am not ready to do that just yet but for those that are, I say, “Go for it” but be ready to clear what is left of your countries of all the radioactive ash and debris because that is all that will be left.
The bigger question is why. Why did Putin invade? Weak leadership. Honestly, if you were Putin and saw the cluster that was the Afghanistan exit, wouldn’t you invade? Who’s gonna stop you?
