We\'re watching in real time as Russia begins its plans to invade its neighbor, the Ukraine, and we wonder what we can do about it.  The aggressive nation has moved troops into the region and is poised for a major invasion.  Shelling of towns in the country has already begun according to video footage being released from the region, and the world is bracing itself as direct conflict becomes increasingly inevitable.  The Western nations refuse to lift a finger to do anything about it, dithering about and displaying the same kind of weakness that Neville Chamberlain so famously demonstrated back in World War II against an aggressive regime bent on acquiring as much territory as possible.  The American President, in cognitive decline and too much of a coward to truly stand up to Putin, not only does nothing to calm the tensions and pull us back from the brink of war, but seems to be doing everything he can to instigate it.
