Poland is tiny compared to what it is up against. The gesture makes an important statement that mere self-defense alone cannot do.

And I won’t fall for the Putin-blinder tactics so unusually prevalent on these boards. Rather disturbing.

If you want to go to war against Russia, be my guest.

I don’t understand this obsession with using our troops as mercenaries.

Let’s put some numbers up for lazy readers to get a sense of proportion of the countries mentioned.

Estonia.........1,315,819
Latvia..........1,990,300
Lithuania.......2,944,459
___________________________
3 Baltic states.6,250,578

plus

Poland.........37,950,000
___________________________
combined pops..44,200,578

vs.

Russia 2018...143,964,709

Recall the Russian diatribe about the “revanchist” threat the tiny Baltic states presented to the territorial integrity of Russia?

For scale reference as compared to the 3 Baltic states:

New York City. 7.341 million (1994)
