#15  Hey, I've got an idea! Let's invade Russia from NATO territory in the Baltics. It's not far to Moscow, and we need only kick in the door and the whole rotten structure will collapse. Then this problem will be over, permanently. Never again will there be a dagger pointed at the heart of Europe.

Yes, we will bring winter coats this time.


Russia would fall apart. That would be fine if China fell apart at the same time, but that's not in the cards, for now. How'd you like to see Russia east of the Urals in Chinese hands? How about the former Russian stans?

#13  Europe may be better off in Russian hands. At least they know what to do with the muslim problem.

Their response is to import more Muslims from the near abroad.

#12  I am more afraid of Congress's Magic Checkbook than I am of the Russians.

I'd love to see Putin attempt to push all the way to the Atlantic. My impression is that readiness levels in Europe are a joke relative to Cold War standards. I have a feeling that it would put to rest, once and for all, our pledge to initiate a nuclear Masada on behalf of our allies in response to a conventional invasion.

#10  #2 Poland could be next. This will militarize the EU.

Next for ... what, invasion by the Russians? Huh?
They're being invaded now by Muslims, not other Christian Slavs. The Polish government and most Poles view the EU as the main threat to Polish liberties and independence, not Russia.

#7  I'm thinking March or April for Taiwan. The PRC will not want to disrupt the Olympic turn out.

#6  Domino effect anyone?
As the Ukraine goes , so goes Taiwan. Calling the Neo-Marxists puppet masters bluff in the Swamp.

#1  We get it -- we can see the Biden Crime Syndicate's business interests in Ukraine. But what business is Ukraine of ours?
