[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These stiff sanctions and total exclusion of Russia are worrying me. I think they will push Putin over the edge. Similar to how Hitler and Germany were punished after WWI. And the way Hitler reacted. Scary stuff.[/quote]

the key word here is *after*.  We are in the middle of a war, not after it.  If we continue after it ends, that would be bad.  But during a war you want us to give up? [/quote]

Yes. PP does want to give up. [/quote]

Don’t speak for me please! Just explore all options prior to his inevitable escalation. [/quote]

Yeah, I crossed a line with my prior post. My apologies.

I don't think the sanctions here are very analogous to the reparations imposed on Germany after World War I for a variety of reasons. But that disagreement doesn't mean that I can read your mind.[/quote]

You all seem to forget that there was an ARMISTICE after WWI. A truce without capitulation. The German people, who were not aware how close Germany had come to defeat, did not feel that they lost, and that was one of the problems, psychologically, that contributed to WWII, because they thought they had been stymied by politicking, and could easily over-run Europe again. Hitler played on that resentment.
