“No. But you want a potential world war over this? “

No, I don’t. And neither does Baird. You keep building straw men, and dragging red herrings around.

If this incident doesn’t merit a response (even one that’s really just a couple of notches above a “strongly-worded letter”), then where would you draw the line? What would it take before you would want to call Putin on it?

You tell me what you want to happen. What is this vaulted “response”?

Strongly-worded letter isnt good enough? Ok, then what do you do beyond saber-rattling rhetoric that some of these people in government are doing over something we arent even 100% sure as to how it happened?

Because this isnt some little dirt country in Africa or the middle east, and you had better be prepared for escalation that makes this more than just some news story you follow on the internet that you can take a break from when you are bored.

And hiding behind terms like straw men red herrings isnt making anything I’m saying any less true.
