Which side is the UK ON ? - Ukraine Latest


Lets Get Real:

It would not surprise this blog if the above advice comes from the FCO, they never want to take action, ALL words and hot air meaning nothing, the same people who never support Israel and supported Chamberlain and his appeasement policy in the 1930s.  At what point does the UK take action, when the Russians are on the border of Poland, A NATO country, no one is asking for the West to send in troops to the Ukraine, but the West of the Ukraine could come under Western security, to prevent Russia taking over the entire Country.   The FCO on the whole is not listened to by the better leaders, they represent the weak elite that gave THE UK the 1970s. Time for stern words and brick lines that can not be moved, time to show the Russian Bear that the honey table is off his list, time to take a nap. 

Obama and Russian Sanctions - Ukraine Latest


Lets Get Real:

The US will have to lead on sanctions, the UN is frozen with Russia's Veto power, the EU is slow to get anything done, also lot of EU countries get their gas from Russia, thus Moscow can cut off Europe in the Winter.    Every time President Obama has talked about the Ukraine he looks weak, as if he does understand that politics is a winner take all in the view of Putin and Moscow, this is not some Harvard seminar, this is the real world, lets see IF Obama can up his game, his polls have been hit by his weak stand on THE Ukraine, time for POTUS to man up as they say these days. 

President Obama on Ukraine - Ukraine Latest


Lets Get Real:

One can see the solution, the West has no backbone to taken on President Putin of Russia, very much like the West would not taken on Hitler in the 1930s, one can postulate that the West will place symbolic sanctions and then sell out East Ukraine to Moscow over the heads of the new Government in Kiev, from Washington D.C to London they will argue that the Russian invasion is not a threat, in few months or years the Russians could turn their eyes to the Baltic States and even Poland, at what point does the West draw a line, a firm line, a line that can not be crossed or changed.   It seems leaders have not learned the lesson of Munich 1938, weakness just make tyrants think they can carry on, when you need a leader in the shape of Churchill or Thatcher in the UK and JFK and Reagan in the US they are never around, the people get the leaders they elect, weak leaders, narrow minded leaders, leaders who do not understand what leadership really means in World history.
