The situation with Ukraine is not on the level of the situations you both cite.

Do you think the situation is static? Hitler established the precedent that he had the right to protect German ethnic minorities in the Sudetenland. Will Putin stop at the Crimea or will he expand his annexation further into Ukraine using other pretexts? Is Estonia next with its 40% ethnic Russian population? Or Moldova? Do we ever establish a red line?

Secondly, and this is vital, the current administration in our country is headed by an enemy combatant and everyone hired or appointed by this enemy combatant is similarly an enemy of Constitution and all that is good in America.

You can describe Obama and his administration as "enemy combatants," but they are duly elected by the people. Are you advocating the violent overthrow of the current administration since they are the "enemy?" If so, count me out.

The fedgov at this point is so removed from representing my interests, or the interests of any sane or moral American, that they are much more dangerous to the interests of the USA than any other foreign country.

What do you propose we do about it?

Lets not forget from what source Hitler drew his demand for sel-determination for the Germans of Sudetenland. From God old Woodrow Wilson's Fourteen Points.

Your comments are full of sound and fury, signifying nothing.
