Thank you. It's hard to know how big the earthquake is while it's still shaking... We are all hopeful that active offensive aggression will be short lived. We are all hopeful that it doesn't spread. We are praying that China sees resolve in our response.
But more than anything, we are all praying that this doesn't bleed into a NATO region, triggering Article 5... an impossible situation for the US.
I'll have more thoughts soon on how this happened and why and what we should do now that it's happened. But right now, the only real analysis I can offer is... Not good. Not good at all. Someone needs to tell everyone to fuggin stop.
One note of analysis... Everyone is talking like this is September 1939 Poland. That's not right. It's much more like June of 1914. This is avoidable.
I have been looking forward to your take. God bless the people of Ukraine, our military, and our alliies.
