(3,389 posts)For example, two options:
Option 1. Have an emergency NATO meeting to bring Ukraine as a member.
Option 2. Biden to send 150,000 troops to Ukraine, Europe to complement with a minimum of 50,000 more troops
2.1 Send war gear and weapons
2.2 Send ships with long-range missiles to point at the 100s of tanks Putin has on the border.
2.3 Let the bully know they are ready to counter-attack
If any of these two had been done Russia would have backed up because he would have known he was going to loose. Nothing motivates a bully more than to know he can beat up on the little guy because no one is going to do anything about it, they will just look.
This invasion, in my opinion could have been prevented. A technicality that Ukraine is not part of NATO is International Stupidity at its best. You don't sit on the sides and allow the bully to murder innocent people, for what purpose.
As I said before -1 x -1 = 1...two wrongs, in this case, could have brought a positive outcome. To me it is insane that the World will allow this to happen and do nothing because a f^*&ing rule...Is Putin respecting any rules? Then the hell with him and we don't respect stupid technicalities that are already killing innocent people.
I am writing more because I read some of the posts where, rightly, the blame of much of this falls on the buffoon trump and republicans, but that was then, this is now. What could have been done to prevent what is happening? See the beginning of this post. We don't do anything dwelling on the guilty for this discussion, what are the solutions? Not that we have too much power here, but that needs to be the discussion.
