As an

older person I can say that I am tired of the Russian so called leaders. My whole life has been since the days after WW2 and during that time there has always been the issue of Russian government brutality to its' own people, military aggression towards their neighbors, openly killing/attempting to kill opposition leaders/followers, breaking every single treaty/agreement they have ever signed etc. and the list goes on.

Their thuggery, like the GQP here in the US, has hampered the progress of humanity with their hatred, bigotry and violence. I am sick of having to cite the reality that coming up on almost 80 years since WW2 ended has been one long, continuous, never ending saga of every day having to deal with these vermin and have so much of the world's resources and focus taken up by having to counter them.

I believe if we are to survive as human beings we must focus massive resources on these problems and have full cooperation among all nations. Therefore I think it is absolutely necessary to force a collapse of Russia as quickly as possible and hopefully as peacefully, through sanctions etc., as possible. We cannot go on like this year after year. If we do not then I see no end to the thuggery. They may take a "time out" while they sharpen their plans but the history shows they will be back at it again and again.

... indeterminately aged person, I can say that meaningless thread titles are not appreciated but meaningful ones that indicate what the thread is about are appreciated.

Again and again.
