I agree with Cruz, Russia is on the move, and we need to strongly resist them.

Enough with our Jimmy Carter/Obama faction.

Of course Russia is on the move...but it's reactionary to the events happening IMO. And we would do likewise if on our border with bases, ports etc.

I don't think resistance is the answer....I do think finding out what Putin wants is and where he intends this to go long run. When I go back to what he's said regarding what Ukriane needed to do ..he's been right about Poroshenko needing to sit down with those in the East and find out what they wanted. Putin said this from the start and did not deviate from that....

I don't think Putin would have any problem discussing things with Cruz....they're both are lawyers and respect what the law says Internationally....Obam can't even get to first base with Putin because he's clearly over his head...and no doubt neither Bo nor Putin have any endearing qualities the other admires....you got a street thug and former KGB man...bad mix!

BTW just where do you think this resistance should be handled? Militarily Putin can have his troops anywhere he chooses on his borders, no matter what it looks like to us.....and in Crimea and Savs.

Further He announced he was sending in help to the Eastern anti-Kiev fighters.... so it really has not been a surprise they're in there now. And frankly other than a lot of verbal lashing....(part of the Plan) nobody’s really stopping what he's doing. Somebody has got to stop the fighting there...and Kiev certainly isn't nor can it...Nato can't go in because Ukraine's not a member....and Ukraine's military is just about had it. I said from the beginning that Russia would be the one the International community leaders would agree to go into Ukraine....and Putin would suck up the rhetoric's for Crimea and the security of his ports....so far that's how it's playing.

They're worn out from fighting (also expected) so negotiations are under way and this is now what will ultimately bring things to a hault. Poeoshenko will yield and so will those in Donbass and surrounding areas in order to have peace restored there.

Meanwhile the fighting will continue, until the negotiations have completed the job at hand.

So are you two going to enlist right away and deploy to the meat grinder in Eastern Europe? In fact, there is nothing stopping either of you from flying to Kiev and fighting the Russians right now.

It's easy being a war hawk on geopolitical and strategic issues (which neither of you know dick about) behind a keyboard and it's not your ass on the line.
