Just my opinion, Russia will face never ending guerrilla warfare in Ukraine.

He will need hundreds of thousands of troops permanently stationed throughout Ukraine and along the southern border of Ukraine in the hope of controlling Ukraine.

He will have to try and stop the arms flow pouring across the southern border which will arm the resistance fighters who will never give up. That's a long border he will have to protect.

We all know what happens when a country takes over another country where the people hate you.

All of the people charged with attacking the capital should be required to do this.

Besides serving time in jail, paying fines, being put on probation. They should be required to take civic lessons, courses. They are extremely uneducated.

It is clear, Putin does not believe in this old saying.

Never bite off more than you can chew. My parents told me this all the time when I was a kid. It is very good advise.

Remember the movies The Day After and Threads.

When they were released back in the 80's they scared the hell out of a lot of people. A lot of people, Republicans , Trump voters need to be reminded that Putin has thousands of nuclear missiles pointed at us and what that means. Friends, allies, do not point thousands of nuclear missiles at you. Putin is not our friend.

Putin does not want NATO on his border. Taking over Ukraine puts NATO on his border.

I think Putin hung out with Trump too much. He is starting to think like Trump.

God bless the people of Ukraine who fight harder for democracy than the Trump lovers do.

Update on my doctors visit. The news is not good.

I may have a rare form of melanoma on my face. I have to go to the hospital for more tests. The doctors are still trying to figure out what is going. The cyst that was removed was tested. It was a normal cyst. The bump that appeared after the cyst was removed and tested, it is saying a type if melanoma.

So now that have to compare both tests and try figure what the hell is going on. They are setting up special scans that will let them know if I have melanoma and whether it has spread tp to other parts of body. That's the key, if it hasn't spread to other parts of my body I could survive another 10 years, which would be fine. I'm 63 now, another 10 years would be a good long life.

Won't know for sure until I get the scans.

What's strange about this is, melanoma usually appears as a dark black spot. I did not have that, I had a small cyst. You never know, that's why you should never ignore things.

This is scary, My doctor just called me, told me to come see him now and he wouldn't say why.

Last year I had a small cyst removed from my cheek bone. Everything went well, they tested the cyst no problems. A couple of weeks ago I went to my doctor because a hard bump had formed under the incision. It was scar tissue, he removed it.

He sent the scar tissue for testing and that's why he called today. He would not tell me the results. All I can do is to hope for the best.

It is time to stop threatening Putin with words.

In my opinion, the US, our allies should start a massive military build up in NATO countries. That will let Putin know if he attacks any NATO country he will pay a heavy price. Putin cannot be allowed to go further than Ukraine.

I am surprised Putin decided to go all in, now he risks losing control of the situation.

I Thought Putin would do what he did in Crimea. Take another small piece of Ukraine, something he could have probably gotten away with. Something he could have controlled without paying too big of a price.

Now we have worry Putin wants more than Ukraine. He could threaten the use of nuclear missiles if anyone tries to stop him.

The US, NATO and our allies should prepare for war. This really sucks.
