Putin
 

Breaking news and tweets from people on site indicate that Putin may
have his eyes on more than the strategic Crimean peninsula. According
to very recent reports Russia is building a massive military force in
the peninsula and armed Russian troops have arrived in other Ukrainian
cities.

He wants the old Soviet Union style eastern Europe back.

He's in Florida right now looking at how some of the successful folks
live, as opposed to how he's living. Harry went bankrupt twice in
Florida trying to find his inner entrepreneur with other people's
money.

The only thing he has concealed is the colostomy bag...

Funny, but, seriously, how's your cancer and your heart condition doing,
and do you still have cigarette smokers in your family?

An air war.

Oh, I'm not denying or minimizing the casualties...



Harry, You rarely minimize casualties, especially when bloating figures make a better point for you.



simply the fact that
we have avoided engaging enemies, real or imagined, who we thought could

fight back in a serious fashion.


Those enemies have done the same with us as well...



That was true in Korea and in Vietnam,

as it was in Iraq. The military thinking for those events was that "the

enemy" was a a pushover and our troops "would be home soon."


If politicians hadn't stood in the way of either, our troops "would be home soon."





The hawks liked to tout the fact that the Iraqi military was "one of the

largest" in the world, and "modern." But the reality was there wasn't

much to the formal military establishment there beyond a large arsenal,

and everyone knew that.


The "hawks" You mean like the Albright, Clintons? Shumer, Kerry...?



We are not going to get into a shooting war with a large, capable

determined military, like those of Russia or China. Do you think otherwise?


No. There's no need to.

What is the definition of a "defensive" or anti-missile system?
I guess in your view Poland and the Czech Republic should just suck it
up and take the hits if a shooting war ever broke out.




I guess I'll have to read up on our ability to shoot down the sort of
sophisticated missiles with decoys the Russkis have. Last time I read
about this, the success rate was...small. I don't think we are talking
about slow moving cruise missiles here, eh?
