I have no idea how Putin can be stopped, but I hope that he can be. If he succeeds China will be emboldened and Taiwan will soon be invaded. Hong Kong has already been strangled. We are determined not to learn from history. Who could have considered even for a moment, that a former president would act as a cheerleader and that commentators on a leading television channel would applaud this invasion? If the republicans regain control of both houses and emasculate Biden, I fear that your grand experiment with democracy will be over. There will be, in effect, an invasion from within. David M.
