You’re willing to send us to war over Ukraine, then?

I'm willing to stand against aggression, Neville. If the Russians want to go to war then that's their choice. But if we're not willing to go to war then the Russians will soon be annexing the Baltic countries because they're already heading down that particular path and they're betting the success of the operation on Americans like yourself.

Right now, you need to focus on what is happening in your own nation. Or used to be nation. Much aggression going on here.

I am not willing for any more American soldiers to sacrifice their lives for someone elses money and power.

If the elitists behind this notion want to spend their own blood on it. Fine with me.

If Ukraine is a member of NATO, then we have to go to war against Russia if they invade. You’re willing to do that? All for “sticking it to the Russians”?

Your pointless attempt at an insult notwithstanding, why just Russian aggression? Do you want to go to war with Iran, too? They're quite aggressive. So is North Korea. China is very aggressive as well. How many wars are you willing to get us into and to what end? If we smash the combined militaries of all these countries, do we no longer have to worry about "aggression"?

Your thinking here, unfortunately, is not uncommon, especially on FR. So many tactical thinkers, nearly zero strategic thinkers. The calculus of international strategy is foreign to many people, and I fully admit I'm a neophyte at it myself, but, as distasteful an idea as it may be to you, it's very real. When Bachmann demands to Obama's face that he do something about Iran and he tells her "It's not that simple," the hell of it is that he's right. We've been at war for about 13 years now with nearly nothing to show for it. You wish to continue this trend? Keep charging in where we're not wanted. I believe the U.S. is a force for good, but we've got to work smarter.

Good for you MeganC standing up to these Putin lickspittles.

No one owes Russians anything, let them sink in their own mess they created themselves.

Ukrainians want to be free of the insane mongoloids known as Russians, then by God let them be free.
