I do remember that when Capn' Bonespurs back in 2018, John, did conflict with Putin's troops, when they were hired in as mercs for Assad in Syria, (Wagner), and the US was ordered to fight back in force. We won that battle! Please review at your leisure. https://www.nytimes.com/2018/05/24/world/middleeast/american-commandos-russian-mercenaries-syria.html https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-reportedly-bragged-about-a-classified-battle-in-syria-2018-5 https://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/feb/13/russian-mercenaries-killed-us-airstrikes-syria The obvious conclusion JC is that no, Capn' Bonespurs did NOT back away from Putin's Bullying, but that Biden, Obama, and Yes, Bush43 did. JC if you won't give the devil his due, one ignores that capabilities of one's enemies. Yes, avoiding a burgeoning nuclear holocaust is understandable, back then, and today. This was behind my ugly idea of having the Russians re-nuke Cuba or Cub-er as Kennedy said. Probably a crazy-bad idea, but it was giving Vlad the Impaler an out with the Russian people. Yes, there are downsides to this, like what if Putin starts up again and there's hypersonics in Cub-er? My thought is we're just as dead anyway and as long as we can successfully retaliate, what difference does it make, as Mama Clinton once uttered? May the Easter Donald not haunt your dreams as he does with every democrat! Amen.

I'm talking about the cause of the Fermi Paradox while you're talking about the silly comedy routine of a man who has control of thousands of Thermonuclear bombs and on a whim could kill you, and everybody you know, and civilization, in the next 20 minutes. Volodymyr Zelenskyy was a professional comedian but when Russia invaded his country he knew it was time to get serious, and so he will always be remembered as more like Winston Churchill than Jerry Lewis. Can you imagine Captain Bonespurs refusing to run away and deciding to risk his life by fighting for his country as Zelenskyy has done? I can't.
