What NATO needs to do is start putting hundreds of thousands of troops on the Polish and Lithuanian borders of Kaliningrad, just as Putin did with Ukraine, and let him wonder if we're going in. What's he going to do about it? More nuke threats? Of course, more empty threats. We have allowed him to bluff with NOTHING in his hand but the threat of using nukes. His military is pathetic and the best of it is spent. We could turn the lights out in Moscow and Kaliningrad any time we want. NATO brass should be working behind the scenes with brass in Moscow and Kaliningrad, making a deal to fuck Putin up the ass. We need to play some dirty pool with our black ops and take out some of the right people in order to get to those around Putin, isolate him, cut his balls off. This has gone on long enough. Reagan won his chess game with the Ruskies and the West could too if we wanted. We have the POWER. Use it.

The EU should host a Putin-style "plebiscite" in Kaliningrad and see if they want to join the EU as a separate country or become a part of Poland or Lithuania. You might not even need to fudge the numbers to win!

Personal opinion, I feel like we should probably try to not actively annoy a country with lots of nukes and mad old man behind the button essentially but we also shouldn't give in to threats from them, just subject them to import inspection if it has to go through a Nato country
@elementsilver
February 21, 2024 at 6:02 am
I guess I side with the more hawkish I support the decision to embargo. Its crazy to me that Kaliningrad even belongs to Russia and I would support a full on land blockade as the country has 0 requirement to allow its borders to be violated.
@Wienerblutable
February 21, 2024 at 6:02 am
Well as good as we could, we could send way more weapons, they would have destroyed the Russians, but it’s a small line. Putin would be a complete idiot to attack, Europe can’t let that happen. US would be just to happy to join, we may have world war 3, but Putin would not survive it.
