Well, lets face it - this is what we are doing. We didn't stop him to take parts of Georgia. We didn't stop him to take the Crim and parts of the Eastern Ukraine. We played football with his slaves and fed and entertained his cronies - I hear London is an amazing place for Putin's crooks to enjoy their life and relax when they need a place to recover from the stress of exploiting the Russian people.
The West will need to choose whether it wants to serve as Putin's lackey's ... or whether we are prepared to stand up and (yes - potentially suffer) for the rights of the world.
People decided to put their lives on the line to stop Hitler and many actually did die for their peoples freedom. Not more or less is what we need to do now to stop Putin. And lets face it - it makes little difference for the individual whether they are killed by Hitler's conventional rockets or by Putin's nuclear bombs ... and hey - the West has nuclear weapons as well. I hope they are in better maintenance then Putin's troup transporters already running out of gas in the Ukraine.
Lets use them as soon as Putin's prepares the launch for the first nuclear armed missile - and lets use plenty - Russia is large ...
