Everything above is short of a shooting war with Russia. I don’t think that is called for. However, I do believe many of the items listed above would be effective in curbing Russian behavior over time. Doing essentially nothing encourages them.

I’ll accept further suggestions from the assembled FReepers, and support virtually anything short of our boots on the ground shooting at Russians.

If that’s not “effective,” then you’re suggesting that nothing short of war is ever effective. The Soviet Union was brought down without war.

I like all your suggestions. I would that the President announce extending the life cycle of the space shuttle, while fast tracking a replacement. Then announce that the Soviet (er, Russian) cosmonauts will be leaving the space station at the first opportunity (preferably through an open airlock without space suits).
