  1. Leland makes an excellent barrage of truth-getting questions from former Ambassador John Bolton. Whatever anyone says about Bolton, he stands behind his government and his country and correctly categorizes former President Trump as an aberration. What is not being said by anyone is how revolting it must be for a sovereign country like the Ukraine to see a neighboring superpower like Russia come in and annexe their 'isle of beauté' Crimea and then announce to the world they are taking all of the coastal area and their mineral wealth and oil and gas producing areas. Not to be outdone by that they have made an estimated trillion dollars in damage to the Ukrainian infra-structure. I talked with a person working in construction and he told me it will take 30 years just to rebuild Mariupol! What I would like to ask Ambassador Bolton is if this sounds like what the Ukrainian forces should do. I think the Ukrainians should drive a wedge down to the steel plant in Mariupol and then provide safe passage for the thousands of people stuck there. When that is done, if I were commanding the forces, I would continue to drive the wedge to the Sea of Asov. Then I would come at the Russian forces on either flank and drive them back to the eastern front into Russia. I would hit the western Russian army and drive them all the way to Crimea. This would destabalize the Russian operations. Lastly, isn't it time for the Ukranians to start a submarine navy? How are they going to protect their ships otherwise?
