Best to just give weapons to the Ukrainians they seem to know what they are doing

Hell the just took out a Russian Warship

I don't think that anyone should invade Russia, you know what they say about a cornered rat and that would be a pretty good way to push him too far.

What I do think is that either we should kick him out of Ukraine by force or tell him in no uncertain terms that we are going to do it in a week if he doesn't get on his bike and go home.

Obviously he will make threats and wave his Nuclear card but i don't reckon he will start lobbing Nukes around because he's being pushed out of Ukraine. Russia lost in Afghanistan and went home with their tail between their legs but didn't Nuke them as a parting shot!

He might use chemical weapons against us in Ukraine and that would be terrible for the civilians but from a military standpoint every army in the western world has NBC suits and Respirators so won't slow us down very much. The same applies to Biological weapons but I really think that's unlikely because Biological weapons are impossible to control and could easily backfire.

Anyway I think he knows that he would be in the pooh if he used any kind of NBC weapons regardless of if we were in Ukraine or not.

I think he knows that there's a line not to cross.

Although it's very risky for me to even mention such a dark day and I really apologize but I see possible Putin parallels. I can almost imagine Bin Laden's face when he flew planes into the World Trade Center, I imagine it went from ye-ha we did it to oh crap, now I'm in deep trouble, and boy was he!

9/11 was one of the worst days in history, we all remember what we were doing that day. I remember driving my train up out of Blackfriars tunnel in London into the station. I looked into the sky and there was nothing. Usually there was a lot of planes descending for Heathrow but that day the sky was empty, it was a chilling sight and I really apologize for bringing it up.

I do think that President Biden might not be quite the right guy as a possible wartime president. I was never a fan of Donald Trump but you know, right now he just might have been a good fit. I think he would either have told us all that Putin promised it wasn't his fault and Trump believes him, or he would have given Putin to the count of 10 to go home or else - and meant it!

Did the Ukrainians take out a Warship? I thought it was a landing craft.
