I am now firmly on fence about no fly zone. Which shocks me. It’s a tough call but you are dealing with a mad man who just may use nukes. And the problem (or good thing) is he won’t use them on NATO or US. He will nuke Ukraine as the final toddler response of well if I can’t have it, nobody can have it. It really might happen, and sadly, still may even if we don’t enforce it.
So, I still think now is not the time - let’s give the sanctions time to hit and pray we can get to both their military leaders and people.
The one hope I have is the military leadership knows exactly what the **** is going on. They are losing a 1000 guys a day and tons of equipment. On a utter contrived bullshit reason. They know the war reason is a farce. And he is doubling and tripling down and depleting their military. Oh and threatening to use nukes. The Russian military leadership all know they have a mad king. And I do think they are secretly talking with NATO about what to do about it. I really think Putin is going to go down in a military coup once the military and people are on same page.
