I believe that we are all going to be involved in this conflict at some point, so avoiding declaring a no fly zone in efforts to avoid interaction and escalation is only trying to delay what is inevitable.

I am certain that there are many contemplating how and that it’s a complex operation. Putin knows he is a target and moves around a lot and trusts few. His long tables are not for Covid.

But also keep in mind - the only thing to fear almost as much as Putin controlled Russia and it’s Nukes - is an unstable Russia with Nukes.

but all of that would stop if someone were to take him out.. I remember watching a CLEAR AND PRESENT DANGER or a simular TOM CLANCY MOVIE where they targeted a vehicle using a bomb that when exploded, exploded into a million pieces so it could not be identified as to where the Missle came from. It only left a large crater.

Assuming this kind of technology exists that would be perfect.

Great, who will enforce it and be willing to have their air bases missiled by Russia for trying to. Poland, Germany? I don't think so. Then when Russia does blow up air bases in NATO countries guess what. We have to just sit tight and hope that WW3 doesn't accidentally get triggered for now. If Putin goes beyond Ukraine you'll have the war your itching for.
