Don’t write off Kyiv, but if Vladimir Putin attacks "any day" under cover of wargames in Belarus starting this week, President Biden will have an instant decision to make.
Ukraine does not want U.S. or NATO ground forces. They’ve already lost 14,000 in the eastern region conflict with Russia and want to fight Russia themselves.
However, Ukraine will need help, fast. U.S. commanders would receive word of a Russian attack in less than five minutes.
NATO’s ready. Is Biden?
Biden’s chaotic response to the Taliban takeover of Afghanistan still casts doubt on his skills as commander in chief, and the Obama-era legacy of letting Russia off lightly doesn’t help. There’s no question in my mind that Putin was emboldened by Biden’s Kabul failure to try a max-pressure strategy on Ukraine.
Still, I liked it when Biden on Sunday snapped that "Putin wants things he can’t get." And his threat on Monday to stop the Nord Stream 2 pipeline backed up the "economic deterrence" his team prefers.
Here are some of Biden’s choices.
Provide location information on Russian forces. In modern war, soldiers fuse precision position data on the enemy and hand it off to forces authorized to shoot back. Ukraine can use anti-tank and other weapons when it has cuing or targeting data, and NATO can help.

I think “chocolate or vanilla” should be in there.

No.

Plugs can’t even count to six..
I’m curious about how using our warplanes to take out Russia’s air defense equipment means we aren’t at war with Russia.
You confuse FOX News with ABC, CBS, CNN, NBC AND PMSNBC
The real question for Biden is how can he get more “10% for the big guy” action going.
There has to be several angles on that with every conflict and issue before government.
Russia isn’t going to invade Ukraine.
Brandon is going to stage a false-flag and use it as an excuse for to attack Russia.
And Putin will respond with tactical nuclear weapons.
Rebecca Grant, thinks if Russia and Ukraine get into a war, NATO should attack Russian air defense missile sites, do CAS missions called by Ukrainians, set up a no fly zone over Ukraine, and help Ukraine deal with cyber attacks that Russia would carefully restrict to Ukraine.
This is what passes for deep thinking these days.
Four is as far as he can get.
USA mainstream media is a choice of about 20 socially left and woke deep-state neocon channels
And one socially-right, deep-state neocon channel.
The illusion of choice.
Fox News is fighting for the other team.
They are just a little more subtle about it.
We need to defend the US border from foreign invaders—if we cannot manage that we have no business worrying about anyone else’s border.
#1....Craps his pants......but it’ll be hard to tell if it was the invasion or just normal
He is going to get us into a full scale nuclear with Russia before it is over. That is for damn sure. Just as sure as Monday follows Sunday.

I don't think that Russia will need to respond with tactical nukes. Mass Katusha/MRL rocket bombardment with modern guidance is more than enough to get Putin's point across at the very onset of hostilities.
Prove it.
