“We don't need another war. And war with Russia could easily get out-of-hand. As to sanctions we ought to stop threatening and "just do it". Really crack down and deal with the consequences. If we keep threatgening and do nothing we make tings worse an d detgroy wqhat credibility we have left. RFather than that, maybe we ought to just back off and tell our uropean friends that its their problem. We never should have gauranteed protection to the Uraine in the first palce. This is a sad situation, but so was the Hungarian Uprising and the Prague Spring. Eisenhower was correct to avoid force.”
