The biggest threat to the American people is Obama and the rest of denizens of Mordor on the Potomac. Putin isn’t destroying healthcare, wrecking the economy, or flooding the country with Third-world hordes. If Russia or China did that to us it would be war.

Excellent ... and Thank You!!

The biggest threat I see is that a lot conservatives can’t understand a false choice when they see one. If we’re going to save the country we have to learn to multi task. Both the kenyan and the KGB thug are mortal threats to Liberty in this country. Both need to be dealt with firmly at this time in history.

Hear, hear, this man.

This doesn’t seem to be a popular opinion around FR but you are correct. I chuckle every time an arm chair general demands action there. What would they suggest? Europe will not commit suicide over Crimea. There is nothing we can do and probably shouldn’t do anything anyway other than make Poland impossible. Those that think we can and should need to remember Serbia and get an idea of the racial/religious make up of this area.

Many of us are more worried about the threat to economic and religious freedom posed by Obama and the European Union: environmentalism as a religion; homosexual indoctrination of kids; persecution of home schoolers; socialism destroying property rights; etc.

Think it’s not bad enough here yet? Look at what they’re proposing in the UK.

What would you do? Invade Russia’s backyard that incidentally is full of ethnic Russians? Do you think Old Europe would help? Do you think Poland and maybe Turkey would be enough help?

Good observation. But my point is that Putin’s authoritarianism is less dangerous because it is easy to identify. The oppressive system that is developing in the USA and the European Union hides under a democratic facade that is controlled by leftist mass media, financed by left-wing billionaires, and institutionalized by out-of-control courts.

Exactly. We have more pressing worries in our own front yards than to worry about Russia taking back Russian territories. Nothing over there right now affects me here in the United States.

“Russia is an immediate threat”

It is? How? Is Russia threatening to invade the United States or one of her allies?

Is that a rhetorical question? Why do you think Poland and Lithuania (NATO members and US allies) are so nervous?

Never heard they were. Putin isn’t threatening to invade those countries.

There's another question in the mix here which nobody is talking about which is this... Television and the internet are making the world smaller at an accelerating rate. In Texas for instance, the Southern accent is basically dead, you only hear it amongst people over 60. In another 25 years, I assume there will be a dozen or so human languages spoken on the planet, and Ukrainian will not be one of them.

The world needs:

Two Germanic languages, English and German.
Two Romance languages, French and Spanish.
One Slavic language, Russian.
Hebrew and Arabic.
One subcontinent language, Hindi.
One Chinese language, Mandarin.
Chinese and Japanese.

That's it. I don't see anything else being spoken by anybody other than historians 25 years from now. English will still be the master/international language for commerce, IF we can devise a rational alphabet and system of spelling for it.

Yes, 3 countries invoked article 4 of the NATO charter last week due to provocative Russian military maneuvers and its invasion of Ukraine. By treaty, an act of war against one NATO member is considered an attack of war on all.

Then let Congress declare war or people can just shut the Hell up and stop the political posturing, wasting even more of my money.
