As an outsider (Aussie) I am interested in what your take is on putting American boys and girls in harms way in this thing. My opinion (for what it is worth) is that this is a Euro conflict and should be left for them to sort out. The EU will jump up and down and make noise and demands but until they are willing to commit NATO troops does anyone take them seriously? That said I wouldn’t object to the US taking up a position with a couple of carriers just flexing it’s biceps. My concern is that some loose cannon on the Russian side shoots a couple of Americans and then what do you do - a response is a must but it makes escalation a certainty.

Thanks
