Thanks Fred. Its a hard topic to avoid right now. Im sure if talk stays civilized it will be fine, or at least I hope so. Its not much more political than the other topic.
Im still absorbing it. Part of me wants to nuke em, part of me wants to be cautious. Its just hard to believe Putin did it, or maybe it shouldnt be. My best case scenario is seeing huge bunches of Russian soldiers refusing to kill their own relatives.
Chenobyl right there too with the earth getting bounced around by bombs. I used to think maybe Putin was smart but not anymore, risking millions of lives for his own ego. I hope theres a coup.

Staged ? Staged?? Surely you wouldn’t imply the possibility of US / Russian collusion to sacrifice a sovereign nation in an attempt to keep some very deep and dark info from getting out from behind the curtain, by the champion collusion finger pointers themselves ?
With full sincerity I can only say, oh the humanity, we are surely screwed big time

Very true. My SIL lives in Sweden, which is a neutral country, as is Finland; and She is hearing rumors that Sweden is now seriously considering joining NATO.
Ukraine seems to be in a very hard place as it is not a member of NATO & as I understand it, NATO countrys can't get involved in the battle unless they are attacked. They can only offer perimeter support & supplies.
My hope is that the Russian people will say "enough" & slay the dragon themselves.

KL, KC, good posts. One never knows what they’re up to these days. Or do we? Who knows?
Norwegians love the U.S. and the Swedes, but they (Norsk...not sure about Swedes) consider Fins to be Ruski’s...and most DO NOT like them...at all.

Bill, ya ought to brush up on your history. Finland was under Swedish rule as far back as the 11th century. And only briefly controlled by Russia. And they battled Russia from 1939 till bout 1944. There was at that time some animosity because Sweden did,'t assist Finland in that fight, as Sweden was neutral. However the only animosity between the two countries today only exists in the hockey arena.
