Somehow I doubt that Dr. Evelyn N. Farkas is going to be on those snowy/muddy front lines, shuttling RPG rounds to her pinned down Ukrainian brothers in arms. But I could be wrong.

Anyway, If she feels that strongly about it---then she should just challenge Putin to a duel and defend Ukraine’s honor ...

Meh, why come down so hard on her when we've got John Bolton doing the samething?

NATO Should Put Troops In Ukraine On Rotational Basis To Deter Russia, Bolton Says

“We need … to make sure the costs are so high that [Russian President Vladimir] Putin and his advisers will find it unacceptable. I think that's the way to deter the military action that seems so imminent,” Bolton, an outspoken advocate of the use of American military power, told RFE/RL in an interview on December 6.

If it was Bush or Trump you would be screaming that they are war mongers. But you probably ignore/forgive Obama ordering a drone strike on a US citizen
I remember democrats saying this about Bush when he president. Then when Trump was president they flipped out when he mentioned pulling troops from Syria. And to top it off they fell in love with Bush during Trump's presidency.

So a Warhawk wants war. Bolton wanting troops sent in is like saying the sky is blue. Everyone already knows this.
I guess the point is that Bolton's azz won't be any closer to the front lines than Evelyn N. Farkas would be, yet they are both the main ones pumping up war.

Hey, remember when the left was screeching about Trump starting WWIII?

Yeah, those were the good times.

No wonder he hated Trump. Bolton sounds like a maniac.

Did I really just post in this Trojan Horse thread when we already have a Russian-Ukraine thread?

What are Finland and Sweden going to do? Neither can add much in terms of manpower or armament. Sweden has plenty of domestic problems from unchecked immigration, I doubt they’re interested in pitching in on another dustup.
Finland had that same issue during the Winter War. Didnt do so bad then.

I said Nothing and Offer military support, because I am somewhere in between. If Ukraine wants to buy arms from us, let them. Otherwise mind our own business.

Never get involved in a land war in a landlocked nation in Asia. Ukraine may be part of Europe but its steppe adjacent.

Because if I take it to small claims court, it will just drain 8 hours out of my life and you probably won't show up and even if I got the judgment you'd just stiff me anyway; so what I am going to do is piss and moan like an impotent jerk, and then bend over and take it up the tailpipe!
