The nutters surface.
Put Ukraine under the NATO umbrella
...while a substantial gamble, it may be the only way to get Putin to stand down.
And Kuchins argues that it is a smaller risk than people fear. “Putin is, after all, a calculating opportunist who will take advantage of weakness where he sees it. He is extremely unlikely, therefore, to risk war if he clearly understands the cost of crossing a real red line. The question is whether he has any belief that the United States and its allies will step up.”These people don't seem to get that Putin has already drawn the red line and that Russia is now mobilizing for war. The NATO chief has already said that NATO is not. The West is not going to war with Russia over the Ukraine, especially when Europe needs Russian energy. Oh and did anyone notice that Russia has the most available oil reserves now and is the swing producer?
