I'm emailing the White House and President Biden daily, demanding NATO act

to stop Putin. He's afraid of NATO and knows we have more nukes than he does and more, overall military might. The world must stop Putin now.

I know many here disagrees with me, but I intend to continue to pressure for action.

take one country at a time, kill children on a daily basis and he will keep doing this until something is done.

Either NATO stand up to him forcefully or he will just keep killing children, taking land, Ukraine wont be the last if something isnt done.

If you are talking tactical nukes the US has 200, but only 100 in Europe, Russia has at least 2,000.

The UK and France have their own, and under NATO nuclear weapons sharing, the US has provided some to Belgium, Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Turkey. Not that I want anybody to use any of them.

someone who feels he has nothing to lose and has absolute power. I for one have an impossible time trying to determine what Pooties intentions are and what he may or may not do. Understanding a person like that is beyond difficult.

It’s like trying to figure out WTF the SlobFather is talking about when he goes on a windmill rant.

He told the world a few weeks before that he was going to invade Ukraine. Even president Biden told us. I never heard of giving out that timeline before.
