NATO “response” forces? Please. What are they gonna do - yell bad words at the Russians? You want to get Putin’s undivided attention? Put the entire nuclear deterent at DefCon1. Fuel up all our land-based ICBM’s. Scamble our bombers and ICBM-armed subs to thier “failsafe” positions. Then get on the “red phone” and ask ol’ Vlad if he would like to play a game of thermo-nuclear chicken?

No; don’t ask that question unless the answer is already known. “When you have to shoot, shoot. Don’t talk” (praying for peace; going to take a miracle)

NATO forces fresh now from Canada beating weaponless truckers, this is different.

That’s retarded!

Slavs will just go mutual assured destruction!

Damn, we’ve had it too good for so long.

I’ve spent time over in that neck of the woods. It’s not wise to poke a bear. Ukraine gov should resign and get a new one. Best advice I have. NATO needs to not exist, let alone get involved.

This might work if it was PDJT on that red phone. Maybe even you or me.

Biden?

We are so screwed.

Please explain to me why the Ukraine is of vital importance to the USA. tia

Since they have more missiles than us and have (they claim) hypersonic ones, I don’t think they’ll sweat too much.

If one dies, we all die...is their thinking.

They don’t fear death as much as us.

Or at least me :)

I did some reading on hypersonic missiles and though it hinted that we don’t have any that are fully operational already, I find it very hard to believe Russia has something up and running that we don’t
