Remember, if you're worried that direct conflict like this may lead to WWIII, you're Putin's puppet.

This whole thing could have been handled with a couple of mean, insensitive Tweets. But, no-oooo. We want nukes.

It’s BAD. The leftists at work are in a froth, and if you don’t echo their sentiments, you’re branded a sympathizer. This is mob rule writ large, and I’m legitimately getting freaked out. Like hair-standing-on-my-neck freaked out. Something’s really off with the world right now.

I don’t want to believe that many are so foolish, but.........

How many people in the US -remember- the Cold War?

I think a lot of people just don't believe that Russia would do anything that involves "special weapons".

[Terrifying if true. I have been telling my wife that they have been beating this no-fly zone narrative on Fox for days. I am sure it’s worse on other networks. ]


If it happens, I expect Korean War 2, with the conflict limited to units within Ukraine, and occasional aerial clashes over the border, as pilots overshoot.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soviet_Union_in_the_Korean_War

Unless Putin’s conventional forces have been faking incompetence, I predict he loses, goes back across the border. Putin spends the rest of his days doing what he does best - incrementally adding to Russia’s landholdings in places other than Ukraine. I see him annexing Belarus, and maybe some of the stans.

And adding to his $200b fortune, of course, some of which is frozen overseas. He’ll probably try to smooth over the fuss over the late unpleasantness, and promise to be a good boy again. The West will take his words at face value because cheap gas is cheap gas, and we don’t really want Russia to become beholden to China. It would be nice for Russia to be able to defend itself from China without the West having to step in. Plus Russia also keeps Mongolia from becoming a Chinese province. Now that’s one border where the Russians could with a few more buffer states.

“More like most Americans have no idea what a no fly zone means”

Exactly. Critical thinking skills are rare these days.

The sanctioning is just as bad in terms of it hastening the possible end of the dollar as the world’s reserve currency.

The only people in the US who have a dog in this fight are the Biden family and the Romney/McCain wing of the Republicans. ‘

Most Americans (including most blathering on here about it) don’t have any idea what is going on there or what this is even all about.

This could be Chinese disrupters going for the hail Mary. Get us into a shooting and glowing war with Russia and they won’t even care about Taiwan or Lithium mines, they take home the biggest enchilada in history.
