Alex: Putin’s Russia must never come away from this with the impression that its unlawful behavior has been rewarded

Jotmo: Agreed on all of that.

Well, I'll take that "win."

Jotmo: So are you OK with the US being the “International Law Enforcement” for Europe? I’m not.

America is already, de facto, the guarantor of "International Law" worldwide, and has been since WWII. She routinely intervenes whenever her interests are involved. (Sh*thole African countries are generally ignored, because, well... they're sh*thole countries.)

Europe, however, IS our business.

Jotmo: Europeans should enforce “International Law” in Europe.

Europeans should be required to foot the bill (or at least a commensurate portion of it).

Jotmo: It’s not or our business.

Disagree with you there! Russia must not be allowed to walk away from this with the impression that they have been rewarded, that their piracy has paid off. (You stated your agreement on this.) That necessitates our involvement.

So far, our involvement has been limited to imposing economic sanctions, and supplying Ukraine with matériel (and intelligence). There are, as of yet, still no American boots on the ground in Ukraine - but the mere report that, say, three brigades of G.I.s were landing there to, e.g., "assume purely defensive positions, and provide only logistical support" would shock the Russian citizenry, paralyze Putin, and freak out his entourage of advisors - and probably result in his immediate deposal. (Don't know why it hasn't been done.)

Regards,

Meanwhile the deepest of deep states are Putin’s Russia and Xi’s China. With poisonings and defenestration being the favored ways for the Russian deep state to terminate you.

China for sure. They are paying off deep state players like the Bidens in order to destroy the United States. Also certain russians who used Ukraine like a piggy bank for payback to the same folks. But the deep state is going after Putin because he won't play their game: Homo/greenie/trannie/unlimited illegal immigration at any cost.

This isn't the cold war. The Soviet Union is long gone. Russia is complex. They are no longer driven by communist ideology. There may be individuals who are driven by it but what's left is Russia and a politician who is trying to remain in power by largely espousing returning to traditional values and a nationalistic identity.

The policy of the beast power, the worldwide union of states that are joined economically and philosophically behind the gods of environmentalism and homosexuality, is to destroy nationalism. That's why their two "gods" are so important...pushing deviant sexual behavior destroys morality (morals)...it DEMORALIZES people....and environmentalism shames and punishes nations into not exploiting their own natural resoures. Both of these are designed to end national identities and national power.

It's why Trump is the number one enemy. It's why they go after Putin.
