[Alas Babylon!]

Here's a picture of one of the thousands of Soviet SAMs in North Vietnam. Several of these killed my fellow USAF Airmen. Many of the early version were not only sold by the Soviets, but manned and run by Russian-Soviet technicians.

If that wasn't an act of war against the USA in the 1960s, then whatever the Russian are saying it is now is hyperbole.

So we can send 2 1/2 million men 10,000 miles, get 56,000 of them killed, kill countless locals and ravage 3 countries for a decade to prevent the first domino from falling. But the Russians can’t react when the largest offensive military machine in history is sitting on their border, a days tank ride from Moscow, screaming forced regime change in Russia? To date, 16 dominoes have fallen and Ukraine is the very last one and it is falling. I have two words for you, FRiend, Alas Babylon!
