So basically, Putin makes strategic and tactical mistakes, feels boxed in, then lashes out with nuclear weapons. Hopefully Russia doesn’t allow Putin to do this.

In glad Putin's feelings are at the center of this.

Some of the players have changed since the Cold War, but the mutually assured destruction potentiated by recent events reminds me of poignant lines from the song “Russians” by Sting.

“In Europe and America
there’s a growing feeling of hysteria
conditioned to respond to all the threats
in the rhetorical speeches of the Soviets
Mr. Khruschev said we will bury you
I don’t subscribe to that point of view
It would be such an ignorant thing to do
if the Russians love their children too.”

Interesting article.

Other articles were really crazy. I had never read the Federalist before and didn’t know how whacked out it really was.

6 of our 9 SCOTUS are Federalist nominees.
