    I’m all for diplomacy. Finding diplomatic solutions to these kinds of problems is the ideal outcome.

    When it’s not ideal and you’re dealing with someone irrational or uncooperative, then maybe fighting isn’t the worst way to go.

    Bluntly, I support Ukraine. They’re clearly trying to make diplomacy work.

    I can’t say the same for Putin/Russia.

      In some book there were cannons stamped with “the ultimate reason of kings”. Seems appropriate here.

      Quicksilver by Neal Stephenson maybe?

        Sounds on brand for him, because Snow Crash has a rail gun named Reason.

          They will listen to reason.

          Yeah remember that one :-)
