 Let's go to war with Russia and stop Putin

 

    Why is Putin called “President”? He ran unopposed, stifled or imprisoned all opposition and now he pretends to be elected? He is Dictator Putin who allows no opposing voices to be heard. Remind you of someone? He was Dictator in Germany until he destroyed it with his mad ambitions.
    Putin is cut from the same cloth. He got his start with the KGB where he learned the many uses of fear to persuade people to do what they otherwise would not do. If threats don’t work, then attack the victim’s family or put Novichok in his underwear or on his doorknob. When people learn what happened to other people who got in Putin’s way, opposition ceases except for a few very brave people like Navalny.
    Putin seized Crimea and the Donbas in 2004 and got away with it with few repercussions. Now he goes after the rest of Ukraine. Will he stop there? Putin mourns the “good old days” of the Soviet Union when hundreds of millions of people were under the Russian heel and insurrections as in Hungary in 1956 and Czechoslovakia in 1968 were mercilessly crushed. It is no surprise that all the countries in the former Warsaw Pact joined NATO.
    The Ukrainians are fighting bravely against superior forces. Why don’t we help them directly? Ukraine is a free country trying to remain free. As free people ourselves we have an obligation to help them. Dictator Putin rattles his nuclear sabre threatening in this way nuclear war if anyone calls his bluff. Let’s call his bluff and send direct military aid to Ukraine. Putin operates with fear. Let’s show him that we are unafraid and send direct military aid to Ukraine. Dictators must be stopped. They they will never stop on their own. Military aid to Ukraine now!
