Who really cares if Vlad wants the Ukraine, Crimea, etc? Let them fight their own battles and keep out of it. Do you really think Putin has eyes on 'world domination'?

Yeah, lets just escalate it into a global conflict. Just what the world needs
This has a very familiar ring to it. Does no one see the similarity with Putin's actions today and Adolf's actions in the 1930s? Will Finland be next? The Baltics? I'm not saying military action is required, but certainly economic action against Russia needs to be stepped up. And military preparedness needs to be stepped up as well. A perception of military weakness appears to be all Putin needs to justify his actions.
