Oh good. Acts of war against a raving lunatic with nuclear weapons who just lashes out and starts wars for no reason and now you just gave the murderous lunatic a reason. It's all Putin's fault and he should just be taken out and its not our fault that those kinds of threats are also acts of war because Putin is a murderous war mongering lunatic.

Is there some way we can talk ourselves down off this ledge of suicidal insanity without threatening to cancel anyone who says we should not be out on this ledge.

All it takes is one little spark.

February and early March 2022 remind me of the same period in 2020. Covid was something bad going on elsewhere. Little did we know how our life would change. Then each day, the problem expanded, and then the problem came here and then it went everywhere.

Well, two years latter, we have a problem with Russia and Ukraine over there. And now the Baltics get warned.

Belarus just faked a referendum, and modified their constitution (in just the past couple of days). It now allows Moscow to command its Military in war, and station Russian nukes in Belarus.

Moscow in turn recognized a right for Belarus to have a route to the North Sea - presumably through either Lithuania or Latvia (or both).

Sadly, I am coming to believe no more and more. It appears that all adults have left the room.

It’s like news from the 1930s with find and replace “Russia” for “Germany”

Then it’s time for the Russian diplomats and any Russian citizens to go home to Russia.

Be gone.

“ We are warning Vilnius, Riga and Tallinn that they are responsible for the consequences of the anti-Russian psychosis they have unleashed,” the Russian foreign ministry was quoted as saying.”

One thing, I’m sure, plays on the Russian psyche. There has been no retribution suffered by Russia after their murderous 70 year Soviet reign of terror. All of the new, virulently anti Russian NATO members have blood scores to settle with their recent oppressor. A cursory look at the bloodletting in Eastern and Central Europe along these lines the last hundred years must make the Russian blood chill. Cornered, outgunned 20-1, terrified, makes the Russians much more dangerous than most believe.

You’ve got this one backwards. The Russian ambassadors were attacked.

“ We are warning Vilnius, Riga and Tallinn that they are responsible for the consequences of the anti-Russian psychosis they have unleashed,” the Russian foreign ministry was quoted as saying.”

I understand the need to act smartly, but the ”blame America first” crowd needs to stop pretending that Russia didn’t start this war.

Cry me a river Russia.

You bomb civilians and then complain about this.

All of your embassies are at risk. A bombing would no surprise.

More of this coming.

And why does Russia hold Kaliningrad?

PUTIN will be satisfied when his forces are sitting on what was the German-Polish border. Baltics and Poland are going to be returned to the fold of Mother Russia.

I am more pessimistic than you. I don't think we had any adults in the room at the start.

The problem I see it is that you can have exactly one of two world views. 1. Putin is an insane lunatic who is going to use his vast nuclear weapons arsenal to blow up the world or 2. Putin is fighting a war to achieve a geostrategic goal that he believes is in the interests of Russia.

Option 1 leads to Armageddon because if you believe that then your only option is to strike first to lesson the impact and hope that after the dust settles something survives. Option 2 leads you to try to see if there is a settlement that can be negotiated short of blowing up the whole world without killing everyone in Ukraine and any other country Putin decides to pick on. Then there is option 3 which is to make clear that no negotiations with a lunatic are possible but we are not otherwise going to do anything other than collapse the Western banking system to punish him. Execissive deaths and destruction of infrastructure in Ukraine are on his head and not our fault and the Russians can rot in hell for their actions.

Advocating option 2 is not an option because anyone who suggests trying a rational approach is to be cancelled.

I’m counting on the Ukrainians being forced to negotiate an understanding that NATO is absolutely not an option on the Russian border, 300 miles from Moscow. This agreement would specify a withdrawal of Russian forces. If the maniacs running NATO don’t get involved in country this will probably happen. Just in case NATO joins the fighting, I ordered potassium iodine tablets for my extended family today.

All it would take is one modern European version of Gavrilo Princip, just lucky enough to be in the right Vilnius courtyard at the right time.

Russia started the war.

However, Russia is correct that the West is engaging in anti-Russian psychosis.

The war mongers in the West are up to no good.
