BS. Russians are positively afraid of monolithic Chechen groups living among Russians. Chechen ruthlessness is derived from the knowledge that entire group is watching each member' back. Atomized Russians don't give a flying crap about each other to help and that's why they are afraid (very afraid) of this sometimes aggressive minority.

I tend to agree here. My wife has been following all this since the school slaughter and it is very much more complex than just go bomb everybody. It seems to me though in this instance folks are just fed up........Russia needs to step away IMO. We do to. Let em hash it out.

Invading, splitting and annexing another country in self-defense... that reminds me the events that lead to WWII. Putin has good teachers. So much for the self-proclaimed "anti-fascist" nation. Right or wrong, forced annexation undermines entire post WWII stability and opens Pandora' box of endless wars.

It's not his fight, so he is not in the ring. He is (or should be) sitting with the judges observing things.

We have a great military............no thanks to liberals. That is why the world is afraid of us. Times like this is when it matters.......liberals would just lay over and hope they aren't taken.

I have to agree with you. Although the US used to fight for freedom. I guess that is lost so now we sit on the side.
