  1. Ms Martin's very good interview with Lieutenant Colonel (Ret.) Alexander Vindman shows the belief this man has in doing the right thing. I would to say to Mr Vindman that I believe the solution to the Ukraine tug-of-war with Russia is to begin a new era of solving seemingly intractable international disputes by using dialogue and dialogue only. If I could advise the Ukranian President, I would tell him to have his troops lay down his weapons if the Russians invade. Why not fight back with weapons of war? We have to start somewhere in realizing that military might has had its heyday in the hisotory of the human community. I don't say give up on saving Ukraine if the Russians takeover by any means. What I am saying is that the minute Russia takes Ukraine or China takes Taiwan for example, concerned countries would begin working on a drafting a peaceful solution for Russia giving Crimea and Ukraine back to the Ukranians and China giving Taiwan back to the Taiwanese. This will take time; time is on our side. Who cares if it takes a generation or more if no one dies? But if President Putin realizes that the minute he steps down from power, Crimea and the Ukraine will go back to its rightful owners, he will understand that his invasion has been in vain. Why not fight back with weapons of war? No one should die because one strong man, one autocratic leader wants a trophy country for his legacy. It's time to start a new era and end the horrible bloodshed and refugee camps and utter destruction of the environment along with villages, towns and cities being destroyed, and whole economies being ruined. We must choose to give the tools of negotiation to resolve all future conflicts to our children's children. This is no small task I am offering as a solution, especially to a military man like Lieutenant Colonel Vindman, but it's the only sane way to move ahead and begin seeing ourselves as part of the human family and not separate groups or countries.
