Agree? "If Putin is allowed to succeed in Ukraine, that threatens all of us." - UK's Ambassador to the U.S.

evil = Hitler, Pol Pot, Mao, Hillary Clinton, I am sure your definition is different and that's ok. We need to all learn that opinions differ, philosophies differ, but we are all human beings trying to live our lives on the same planet.

Basically, yes. But the planet is small, may be too small for all of us.

War and disease have kept the numbers down in the past. Maybe common sense can do it in the future.

One day it's "Russia is so weak they can't even beat Ukraine"

Both are lies.

There is no such thing as "really common sense". Many things that are sensful for you are sensless for us and vice versa.

I've seen this movie before, for the last 25 years and 38 trillion dollars and the Patriot Act. We can either do this the easy way, by supporting the MIC, or the hard way, with another "incident". Choose.

BS, there is always truth, and always will be. Spinning the truth into propaganda (by either side) is why we are so divided today--------------and when did it start and who started it?===================Obozo, and his partner Michael Robinson, the first gay president and the first trans FLOTUS

Propaganda was invented long before them.
Real life is too complicated, and any model of it is (and can't not to be) a simplification. And simplification, useful in one situation can be source of a deadly mistake in another one.

It has. You told about "lessons of Vietnam". What are they, from your point of view?
