Russian airlines were sketchy long before this. Who would step on a Russian airliner at this point?
This might be a little tougher than Putin thought...

This is the problem. One side is willing to bluff, to risk war crimes, to destroy the lives of millions of people. One side believes might makes right, because their experience has proven this out. The other side is pissing their pants over the completely hollow threat of nuclear war.
There is only one way to treat a bully, whether they are on the playground or the leader of a nation:
Punch the motherf*cker in the face.
One disturbing thing that will be apparent form this tragedy is that everyone will want nuclear weapons in the future. It is the only thing keeping the west from kicking Putins ass. Also, Ukraine giving up their nukes based on Russian and US guarantees of peace and protection seems incredibly stupid at this point.

Honestly, I used to think non-proliferation was the only way…this has shown me that maybe we need to embrace the nukes world wide. They are in some ways, keeper of the peace.
You can bet if Ukraine still had them Putin wouldn’t have even considered this…

That’s kind of what I’m thinking too….article 5 doesn’t force members to respond militarily, it states they may.
And honestly if the threat of nuclear war is too great to prevent us from helping Ukraine, why would we suddenly deem it worth it for a neighboring country?
(for the record, I think we should do more for Ukraine now….just pointing out the logic here)
Being able reconsider and change your opinions based on overwhelming evidence you were wrong is a sign of intelligence. People that are emotionally invested in their positions and cling to them despite facts are dangerous whether they are on the right or left.
Their mobile incinerators must have run out of fuel.
Except that we are on the record saying we will defend every inch if NATO soil.

Obama said that chemical weapons in Syria would be a red line too….and we didn’t do anything.
True but this war presents a different set of facts.
I really believe Putin knows that and won’t cross that line.
It’s a wrap. We’ve won this thing.

I wonder which dances the White House recommend they use. I would really like to help.
LOL. These guys are just clowns at this point. Their tough talk is literally laughable.
😂 They sound like the people who get angry and pay their fines in thousands of pennies.
That was my first thought too.
Yep. And the best part is they are self owning themselves, using the worthlessness of THEIR currency as a freakin threat!
