Ian, you see the geo--political scene like a political scientist and it is very enlightening for ordinary folks who have really never thought much about NATO and business ties between nations, trade deals etc. So; here we are with a war of a thousand cuts against Ukraine by the Russians. Expertly trained, Ukrainian military forces have stunned the world in their ability to fight. They are an 'A' list country and instructors from all nations training their troops like working with them because they learn fast. My question today is what is the game-changer sort of weapon that is going to put the brakes on the hard men of the Kremlin? Will scores of tank busters, F 16s, Apache choppers zooming across the battle lines make the ghouls who send the missiles pack up and go home? Something isn't right, because the rhetoric from Vlad the Empire Builder is still gung ho. My gut feeling is that Crimea is the bug that should be stepped on. America's greatest living general in my humble opinion, the retired Lt. General Ben Hodges believes that Ukraine will take Crimea in August or has the possibility to do so, time tables have a way of shifting, so we can imagine somewhere down the road it's going to happen and when it does, will it be the day the Russian invasion dies and a new regime comes out of the shadows to thrill us all with an encore?
