[Alas Babylon!]

No doubt. But no different that Haile Selassie (King of Ethiopia in 1936) wanted France and the U.K. To save him from the Italians.

That would have led to WWII several years early.

History is filled with countries’ leaders wanting great powers to come and save them.

Zelenskyy is asking nothing more than others have done in the past.

As a great power, we have to ask if saving Ukraine is worth our cities being nuked. No, It is not. But countries that are part of NATO must be, by treaty obligation.

That is why it is so important for NATO not to let Ukraine join it.

I have a great deal of sympathy and personal support for the Ukrainians, and think Putin and Russia are dastardly for this invasion, but it is not worth a single American's blood, let alone a nuclear war.

I'm fine with providing the Ukrainians with weapons, just as the Chinese and Soviet's did in Vietnam to us.

Highlight of This Week with George Stephanopolous

Intriguing exchange between round table persons…Donna Brazile and Chris Christie

Next, former Democratic National Committee chairwoman Donna Brazile tried to challenge Christie, and it went just as poorly for her (click “expand”):
DONNA BRAZILE: I want to go back to your point. The Republicans, seriously, Donald Trump tried to play a game with Mr. Zelenskyy.
CHRISTIE: And still armed them.
BRAZILE: He tried to play a game
CHRISTIE: And still armed them.
BRAZILE: And was impeached for it. So I think this President has rallied the country, rallied nato. Gotten the Germans — I mean look at the countries that are coming to help the Ukrainians.
CHRISTIE: You think that’s because of Joe Biden?
[crosstalk]
BRAZILE: Yes, I believe Joe Biden has shown leadership.
[crosstalk]
CHRISTIE: No, Donna! It’s because the tanks rolled into Ukraine and that puts the Russian tanks a lot closer to Germany than they were before they did. You cannot give Joe Biden credit for that. And by the way, Joe Biden did one thing that Donald Trump didn’t do, he stopped arming Ukraine. And this was the same administration he was part of back with Obama that –
BRAZILE: Oh Lord, here we go!
CHRISTIE: That sent blankets after Crimea.
BRAZILE: You changed your platform on Ukraine.
