As we saw with Egypt a little caution goes a long way. (Things are quietly heating up there again BTW)

Another Calvin Coolidge/Warren Harding Factoid.

He Put a Halt to a Dangerous Battleship Building Arms Race with the British in the early 20's.

Frankly now one saw the point anymore.

May I coin a new term? Peace through being Proactive.

If we would have diplomacy right, we wouldn't be here. Maybe Ukraine Being in NATO and us not having a HOMO PILL PUSHING PRESIDENT, than maybe Putin wouldn't feel as bold.

Yep when it comes to Russia we need tough diplomacy not tough talk from a chihuahua.

I have to wonder if the media doesn’t deserve a little blame in this from a psychological stand point. They spent two months attacking Russia because they were pissed about Putin not caving in to the gay lobby which pissed off Russians and emboldened Ukrainians.

Spiting in each others eyes will lead to punches before long.

Now the Leftist Progressives what the U.S. to use it's influence to spread Gayness and a crap ton other B.S. around the globe.

Maybe we should just stay out of each others business.

No One Wanted in our business in the 1830's :/

I think we should be a lot more concerned about the western hemisphere (And Israel of course). At some point Europe is going to have to fight their own battles.

They Used To and then some Progressive American (*wilson*) thought it would be a good idea to send our boys "over there" and THAT is where almost all of our problems come from.

The First World War.

There would have been wars but I’m not sure the second world war would have happened if we had stayed out of the first.

I didn't say 'deserve' to die. Merely, they kill each other to sort out their differences like everyone has done in the past.

Ebb and flow. Ukraine has not always been Ukraine. Countries are in flux, and they need to come to a resolution. They will come to it sooner without our blood being involved.

Good. Let them kill each other.

Seems pretty emphatic to me. And I would state pretty positively you are beneath contempt.

cripplecreek is right. This is not 1939. There are nukes now. Does anyone seriously think we should risk a nuclear war for anything other than a direct attack on the US? This is nuts.

If I were an enemy I couldn’t hope for a better time to draw the USA into a major war. Our military is worn out from a decade of wars we chose to fight to a standstill rather than win. They’ve been demoralized by a president who has attacked them through funding cuts, homosexualization and islamitization. Plus we’re flat broke and I’m not sure the Ukraine is in our interests.

The Russian Napoleon strategy was to draw him deeper and deeper in while letting Napoleon defeat himself.

Indeed... the treaty was done when the US had a Constitution to back it up.

Liberals...scream murder when a corporation accidentally has dirt in its meat but then looks for any reason to inflict AIDS on others in the name of privacy or freedom of speech or fighting in competing harms against involvement in some foreign conflict, for awareness reasons...

Not worth the paper it’s written upon. Captain Pink Lines wouldn’t stop Canada from invading the Dakotas.

Let Europe defend Victoria Nuland’s puppet government.

Thanks george76.
The Budapest Memorandum... promises to protect Ukraine's borders, in return for Ukraine giving up its nuclear weapons. Today Kiev has demanded the agreement is activated after insisting their borders had been violated.
Like any other leftist (or muzzie), Putin doesn't give a damn about treaties.

The same folks that gave us the Dayton Accords. How did that work out for Yugoslavia?

It was a bad treaty. Anyone with half a brain knew eventually Russia would claim The Crimea. All they did was kick the can down the road.
