If a competent POTUS were in charge, we would be arming and training the Ukrainian army, declaring Russia a Terrorist state, and going after Belarus and other Russian allies. We would also be scrapping arms treaties with Russia.

Did that in Vietnam,Croatia, Bosnia, Kosovo.... didn't went well. Kiev regime does not even represent all of Ukrainians. It those regions there are 30% of Russians yet 60% support for ousted pro-Russian president. Math says that all of Russians and significant number of Ukrainians are against Sodomite regime in Kiev.

No, that would be a moronic course of action and not in America’s interests.

Ukraine needs to find a peaceful solution that everyone can live with. That means the 47% of people who voted for the elected president who was overthrown in a coup need to be brought into a consensus, which will mean major concessions by the coup government. Bringing the country back together will take time.

All this psycho talk about war and killing people is exactly what most Americans don’t want to hear. It’s exactly the mentality that lost Congress in 2006 and lost the White House in 2008.

Keep in mind that it’s the same folks in the State Dept. and CIA who are arming al-Qaeda in Syria who directed the coup in Ukraine. These people are dangerous and are doing great harm to America. The military leadership strongly objects to these courses of action because they understand where they will lead.

It’s time to arm the Ukrainians so they can kill the Russian invaders. Leave Ukraine to the Ukrainians, not the Putinistas.
