I’m not particularly sure what you mean here. All I was trying to say was a person with a hedonistic lust for life such as Putin is not going to...
Certainly, limiting options publicly is. We assured Russia that we would not intervene no matter what right after they made their first nuclear...
I’ll bet. My guess, though, is there’s not much up there to corrode or erode the protective measures against radiation that they designed into the...
Not much corrosion or erosion in space, I imagine.
Your instinct is correct in my opinion. I would say in the beginning we did not have a good idea about how far Russia was willing to go, but now...
For what it’s worth, should it come to direct action, I believe we could defeat Russia without ground troops. The ground troops, Ukrainians, are...
Yes, and I agree with all of that. Refusing to rule out intervention (even if we privately had decided against it) instead of assuring Russia that...
Important distinction: Macron has not put troops in Ukraine or decided to. He has simply signaled that he is losing patience with Russia. And that...
I’ve been advocating it since the beginning. Go look at my posts (admittedly more emotional in those days) from February and March 2021. I...
It will indeed, but I don’t think Ukraine has the time it would take. Russia clearly believes it can conquer Ukraine (one way or another) and then...

I certainly agree with Macron in terms of changing the tone of our response to Russia, yes. We need to start signaling our willingness to become...
Look, I’m all about causing Russia economic problems as part of a whole-of-government response to Russian aggression. But it’s complete liberal...

Stupid question: What does it mean to be “bluked?” Google was not my friend.
Yeah, but you’ve said the same thing about me, proud 1999 graduate and true Son of Spurrier. Why? Because I have expressed doubts (along with...
That’s all extremely vague. I can see why one of our rivals might bite at that because they want it to be true, but I think the actual truth about...
To hell with proof. This isn’t a court, and AH is dead. I’ll settle for four of the five Ws. If you want to throw out an allegation like that,...
If Russia wants to salvage that ship or anything in it, then Russia is going to have to ask Ukraine’s permission. That’s what happens when you...
My brother of the EGA is a close student on how to tell if a process is working or not.
