Does anyone have the sense this could deteriorate quickly -- Lupos 03/03/2022 10:58AM

That is a very distinct possibility -- Zanderhokie 03/03/2022 11:59AM

Russia’s military is bumbling it’s way through Ukraine. -- hoolstoptheheels 03/03/2022 12:23PM

And he can’t just throw a switch an invade the Baltics. He’d have to build -- SixerHoo 03/03/2022 12:41PM

I can't imagine he goes that route, knowing that would force US/NATO to -- JohnHoo2 03/03/2022 12:11PM

The Baltic states are my concern, too. NATO states with a US presence. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 03/03/2022 12:03PM

If that happens, we know that Putin has lost all touch with reality. -- hoolstoptheheels 03/03/2022 12:08PM

I share your concerns. Clearly from his past, human life other than his own -- HiwasseeHoo 03/03/2022 11:51AM

Yes. And no idea how to fix it except eliminate Putin ** -- WaxHoo 03/03/2022 11:15AM

That may be the only option. The Oligarchs & Clergy -- Lupos 03/03/2022 11:31AM

Absolutely -- Beerman 03/03/2022 11:14AM

I'm honestly a bit surprised Putin hasn't make any threats about that. -- JohnHoo2 03/03/2022 11:18AM

Well he kind of has by mentioning nukes. ** -- SixerHoo 03/03/2022 11:22AM

I know it’s a Hail Mary but hopefully his own generals take him out. ** -- SixerHoo 03/03/2022 11:09AM

Do you give Putin a way to save face? A Sun Tzu ''golden bridge''? ** -- HokieDan95 03/03/2022 11:03AM

A 'failed assassination attempt' and a house on some island for protection? -- CavMan1 03/03/2022 11:40AM

St Helena comes to mind ** -- 81_Hokie 03/03/2022 11:48AM

I hear Big Diomede has a lovely year round climate. ** -- SixerHoo 03/03/2022 12:46PM

He can survive. That’s about it. He shouldn’t get anything else. ** -- WahooMatt05 03/03/2022 11:32AM

If non-Ukrainians join the fight, yes. -- WahooMatt05 03/03/2022 11:03AM

That's the very difficult rub to this. The Ukrainians are feeling the -- hoolstoptheheels 03/03/2022 11:38AM

Full and complete withdrawal plus massive reparations from Russia ** -- wahoo138 03/03/2022 11:01AM

I'd be fine with no reparations if I were Ukraine. It looks like -- HoosWillWin 03/03/2022 11:28AM

Putin might take Crimea and eastern provinces and Ukraine not joining NATO. -- JohnHoo2 03/03/2022 11:45AM

Sure. But I don't think Ukraine will ever formally agree to that. At least -- HoosWillWin 03/03/2022 1:59PM

He’s a dead man in every scenario, so has nothing to lose by going “full -- WaxHoo 03/03/2022 11:35AM

Don't see that happening with Putin in power. Unfortunately the quickest -- JohnHoo2 03/03/2022 11:07AM
