“For God’s sake, this man (Putin) cannot remain in power.” A completely correct and inspiring statement by President Biden, this made me proud to be an American.
For God’s sake, let us give Ukraine the military equipment immediately that they are requesting — the fighter jets, the tanks, air defense missiles, anti-ship missiles, more sophisticated drones, whatever Zelenskyy’s military desires.
The sooner Putin’s troops are defeated and removed from Ukraine, the sooner the humanitarian disaster can be resolved. Let us spend the money in helping the Ukrainians return and rebuild, rather than for housing them in other countries.
We must stand side by side with Ukraine, rather than hiding behind its skirts, until there are no Russian troops alive on Ukrainian territory other than POWs. Daily escalation of military help should occur until Russia capitulates — no more of this frozen conflict nonsense which has paralyzed the Western democracies.
