To the editor:
Although I know it is dangerous and probably wrong to do, nevertheless I am becoming more and more convinced that “we” should confront Putin NOW!
Putin’s moves alarmingly remind me of Hitler. I believe in 1939 Hitler moved to annex the Sudetenland (which had always been an integral part of Czechoslovakia) ostensibly because some Sudeten Germans lived there. British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain agreed and then announced that he had attained “Peace in our time!” We all know how that worked out.
Putin annexed Crimea and now looks to take Ukraine as some Russians live there - how similar to Hitler! We are letting Putin hold us and the World hostage with his threats!
My knowledge of history and my life experience tells me that the best way to stop a bully is to confront him. Let’s take Putin at his word that his aim is to re-create the Soviet Empire. Let’s stop him now before “we” have to do so in Moldavia, Poland, Latvia, Estonia, Lithuania, etc, etc.
At the very least, let’s give Ukraine those damn airplanes.
