Meh...I'm not all that worried. I'm gonna die one day regardless.

If ISIS gets me, they get me. (Shrug)

It must be just where he lives, because we already have some ISIS people in our country as evidenced by the tweets from Chicago and elsewhere inside the USA. It's a pretty good campaign to instill fear in the populous. These guys aren't your typical goat herders. They seem pretty educated and aware of just how to fund their movement and use technology against the West.

Yes, it has been all for nothing, yet our words and promises to other nations is flat. How can we ask countries to do this below and then sit and watch? How can we tear up a country and say do it yourself? If we are not going to get involved we need to stop asking countries to give up their defenses.

The PJ Tatler » Ukraine: On Second Thought, Maybe We Shouldn’t Have Given Up Our Nuclear Weapons

If Bill Clinton’s was the Animal House presidency, then Ukraine is realizing that it made the mistake of trusting Clinton, and by extension America.

Ukraine gave up its nuclear weapons in 1994 on the promise that the U.S., UK and Russia would respect its territorial integrity. Ukraine didn’t sign on to the Budapest Memorandum because it feared a British invasion. Based on its history with its neighbor, it feared a Russian invasion. It wanted backup for giving up the one serious deterrent that it had for preventing such an invasion.

“We gave up nuclear weapons because of this agreement,” said Rizanenko, a member of the Udar Party headed by Vitali Klitschko, a candidate for president. “Now there’s a strong sentiment in Ukraine that we made a big mistake.”

His statements come as Russia raised the possibility it may send its troops beyond the Crimean peninsula on the Black Sea into the eastern half of Ukraine.

Why are you folks getting so froggy?

Simply put, I'm not worried about ISIS. I don't know what else to tell you. But there's nothing you can say to make me fearful.

I am asking why do we need to fight with people on the ground? Many options are available, why are you only thinking of sending bodies to fight? Are you thinking all of this isn't going to be WW3 if we just sit.

After all, if we just pull out and mind our own business they will leave us alone, correct?

That's EXACTLY why we shouldn't have allies. We shouldn't make promise to other nations.

Americans aren't gonna risk their sons to save the Ukraine.

In fact, there's no country that I'd send my own son to defend outside of our own.

A major attack on the east cost will still go to his town.

It will get there because the economy will take a dive.
