Economics aside in the bid for Ukraine to be admitted to

NATO at Vilnius. It could, as is

pointed out in TC's great essay, be Putin's tipping point.

I think Biden and Germany, perhaps Britain's Sunak also

will push to withhold membership at this time.

There are other European

NATO members, regardless

of Poland, who will not want

to take the chance and I can't

blame them. A little word of

caution here, considering the

fact that our security services

withhold "need to know" info

from the general public. Are

we 100% sure Belarus hasn't

acquired WMDs? And then,

there's Wagner.

Putin is up to something and

it won't be pretty. He plays his own long game.

I do wish we and our allies had given Ukraine the armaments and artillery it

has needed much earlier than

we have. They should have had air dominion from the

beginning.

If you haven't seen recent pictures of Bakma you should take a look. A thriving

center totally destroyed. Absolutely demolished. And

that's just 1 city. There are

others just as bad.

Yet the "people" persevere. They want their freedom. ❤
