Ukraine is no threat to Russia, nor is NATO unless Russia forces us into war.

You are with the enemy? We are NATO, Russia is a threat to the world and why NATO exists.

NATO would be wise to shift its reason for continued existence to be stopping ISIS genocide from spreading into NATO nations. That and possibly Ebola or some other horrific disease are today’s problems.

I mostly agree with you that Ukraine and NATO aren't threats to Russia, but Russian leaders don't agree with you. So our opinions aren't really relevant. There's no question that if Ukraine were to join NATO, Russia would see it as a very serious threat to its national security.

Huh? Maybe you missed the spot where I said I don't support Russia's actions. The Russians have motives here -- if you want to ignore them, fine. But don't blame me for talking about them.
