US has no good options in Ukraine

[Anonymous]

Russian Oligarchs keep a bunch of cash in western nations. Those assets should be frozen promptly.

"Obviously I expected Putin to be aggressive and uncompromising, but this is downright scary. This is a war speech."

Putin isn’t gonna cross into France.

Stop being dramatic

Ukraine, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania are all on the menu.

The latter three are all EU states. Putin cannot invade them as it will be declaring war on the EU.

As i said, let me know when Boris sends in the Scotland Yard and mi5 into Russian homes in Mayfair and London west end and starts kicking families out and taking over those properties for the British state.

The EU has nothing to do with collective defense. I think you meant NATO.

He reminds me of LBJ.

Who are Dems with chad energy?

Actually, if we're doing the Virgin/Chad thing, Biden is the Virgin who can't get Republicans to agree with him or side with him. Putin is the Chad who can. Sorry, I'll go see myself out...

Non-NATO members like Finland may be more inclined to join. And Russia will end up in a costly multi-year guerrilla war that will create lots of domestic resistance and problems for them, which should distract them from messing with the US and may ultimately undermine the Putin regime.

Let’s hope. The West is beginning to ramp a response after not taking Putin seriously for years. To get ahead of Putin, the West needs to be bold. We cannot appease Putin or he will chip away one nation after another. We need to aggressively fund an insurgency and fortify NATO’s eastern flank.

And ramp the sanctions aggressively. The assets of Putin and his cronies must be seized.

The way to pressure Putin is to go hard after all the oligarchs, their kids getting educated at Oxford & Harvard, and all their mistresses coming to NYC and Paris for shopping trips.

Cancel their damn visas and put them on planes to Moscow. That is their worst nightmare. And Putin’s biggest headache.

I'm puzzled why my reply to some earlier comments about Tulsi Gabbard got deleted. It wasn't exactly what I'd call controversial.

That response equates to sending a mean tweet.
It is feckless.

No, won’t cross article 5 overtly but ….let’s say worst case scenario….chips away at baltics….and?

Let me know when he crosses into the rhineland.

Austria for example is not a nato member and much further east.

No one in Vienna is losing their head.

No one in Salzburg is losing their head.

If you are that scared, sell your entire stock and 401k portfolio tomorrow morning.

Thanks for the discount prices.

Austria is full on compromised by the Russian government and Russian mafia. They let Russian mob hide out in plain sight and let them spend their money.

There is a lot more Russian money in London.

Let me know when Johnson sends in the constabulary to seize all Russian citizen real estate in London.

Won’t happen.

Lol, what about Cyprus, the Netherlands, BVI & Switzerland?
