    First paragraph is factual, look at Mr Putins military gains this century and the purpose behind them…. Would you care to explain the purpose behind them? Forget Ukraine…Georgia?

    The recent attack on Russian civilians was carried out by those of the same ideology that attacked the arena in Manchester and the public transport system in London here in the UK, I won’t comment on Islamist attacks in the US as that isn’t my place to do so.

    Islamic terrorism is a global pest and unrelated to the topic

    ? I did not mention Islamic terrorism.
    Even the wikipedia article on Crimea is less biased than the news.

    I reckon the moment Putin decides to push the Nuke button over losing a conventional war is the day one of his friends shoots him in the head.

    An interesting point. Pres. Putin is a very knowledgeable and rational person,
    but if a person in command of a nuclear arsenal can be 100% guaranteed not to use it then
    there is no point in having it.

    Hence such a person, however reliable, can never make it known that they are
    totally reliable.

    "Putin is a knowledgeable and rational man"?

    Is that why he hides in bunkers.....?

    This qualifies for the joke of the day.....:lol:

    About 35% of London is populated with muslims.....seems you've also fallen for the US governments lie about the Crocus attack. If you want to speak on Georgia, please pull out a map first and refresh your memory of Georgia's border with Russia, which hasn't changed since the USSR dissolved.

    Republicans think we should let Putin attack whomever he wants and no one can help the country he attacked?

    that sounds like THAT could lead to WW III

    Interesting mind reading on what Republicans think. Of course I've had it expressed to me recently that you guys on the left don't actually care what anyone on the right thinks so maybe mind reading is required.

    I don't think that any Republican has even thought of that particular formula because it's so dumb.

    If Russia attacks a country in the Western hemisphere we should do something, and if Russia attacks a country that has a defense treaty with the US, we should do something. Every other country the decision should be based on US national security interests...an alien concept to be sure to someone on the left, but you can google it.

    He said if a country doesn't meet the 2% of GDP target. It worked to because now they are all meeting the 2% target.
