LESSONS IN LEADERSHIP – OR LACK THEREOF

Here is a very brief article published by one of our editors at another social media site on this subject

An incredibly vapid response from Europe as the entire continent stands idly by while a monster devours one of their own.

NATO or no NATO, based on the common history of Europe fighting two world wars, not a single nation inside Europe should be satisfied with just sanctions, all of Europe should mobilize towards Ukraine and face off the Red Army. Putin will not risk a nuclear armagaddeon if a conventional European front faces off against his conventional army.

He claims he is not there to occupy the Ukraine but he just lied hours earlier when he said he was sending troops to support the two “independent” territories on Russia’s borders. NOW ITS A FULL FLEDGED ATTACK ON ALL OF UKRAINE.

What is to stop him next from marching on to Finland, Poland, Estonia and Lithuania? Is Europe planning on just imposing sanctions and let his massive army take out his neighbors?

Is this how Europe wants to be seen in the eyes of the world????

Even if there wasn’t a NATO (before WWII) countries in Europe were bound by civilized conduct to ward off a bully and a war criminal, more so than ever today, in the 21st Century, Europe should be compelled to act proactively not posthumously.

How can the leaders of Germany, France, Italy, Spain and Great Britain just stand idly by and watch any of this? What kind of message are they sending to the rest of the world???
