  1. It is always a pleasure tuning in to Freddie on the very high rated and deservedly so, Unherd Show. Having a military expert analyze the situation in Ukraine is good because we get to see what the people who are military historians and analysts have to say. As far as the Ukraine war goes, we must realize that no one, even President Biden is going to publicly say truthful things about sensitive subjects like F16s being sent by the US to Russia. In my opinion, Biden was wise to cut down that area of discussion, because you cannot show your cards on the international stage and expect the Russians not to be tuning in. Nex; the Ukraine is never going to stop asking for military assistance for one very good reason. Imagine if Ukraine said we've got enough bullets now, thanks a million and we'll just carry on fighting now that we have enough ammunition. Suppliers from western countries would turn off the spigot in minutes and it would take long discussions by Ukrainian officials to get the arms flowing back in their country again. They are asking for 500 tanks because they know if you ask for the exact number of anything you need, you'll get only half of it, if that. My solution for the end of the conflict won't please a lot of people, but I think we have to keep saying on every media platform that the Russians have to understand that we view the Ukrainians like a person drowning in a dark patch of a rip tide. What do I mean by that? I mean that all of us and anyone we know who saw a person drowning would do everything in their power to save him or her. We have to stress to Putin that we mean no disrespect to him or the Russian people, but invading a sovereign country is crossing a red line for us. This is who we are; we will save the Ukraine because for us it is like a person drowning in front of the whole world. We have to make President Putin realize that we are in this for as long as it takes, because for us the Ukraine cannot fall.

  2.  @SWTORDREKKIN  GGGGGGGGGreat to hear from you. There are no angels in international politics and I certainly don't have all the facts. Ukraine won't fall but if it starts to teeter the conflict will spill over into neighboring countries and then a world changing war will turn our civilization on its head.

  3.  @uwanttono4012  GGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGreat to hear from you. There are bumps in the road in democracies, and you have named but a few. Cheney's grip on power with his brother-in-arms Rumsfeld and his lackey George 'W' threw the USA's reputation in the gutter by their conquering Iraq and Afghanistan at great loss of blood and treasure for results that are dubious to say the least. But, they've climbed out of the cesspool they created and could only do so because you can vote in new fools to replace the old ones in democracies, so we do get to right our wrongs. Tony Blair, bless his heart, followed his instinct and went to help a friend who had helped Britain; he followed his heart and mind and felt he was doing what was best for the free world. 20 / 20 vision for past actions will only make you criticize those who jassessed the events in their own way. History judges all of us, but in spite of their tendencies to self-destruct, democracies have all we got to get us where we want to go. The autocracies have to end up in the trash heap of history because one man's rule over all is showing its mettle in Putin's war which is calculated slaughter of his young Russian boys on a sovereign democratic nation...
