I think the "act of war" part already happened when Russia invaded Ukraine. But it's not our war to fight. At least, not yet. Good men do nothing=evil triumphs.
Then again, are we really the "good men"? Obviously most are not Christian.
This goes back to what I have been saying all along: We are not the world's policeman.

I think the entire situation would change drastically if Putin were to attack, say, Poland.
Which he has hinted he might do, if Poland sends its Russian style aircraft to Ukraine. I'm a bit puzzled as to how he might justify that attack. Were there some sort of iron-clad clauses in the Poland-USSR agreement when the aircraft were first delivered decades ago? Who would know?

Putin needs no justification. Just as he has done in Ukraine he can fabricate some excuse, and while the rest of the world "deliberates" what to do he will advance his agenda. More then likely China, Saudi Arabia, No. Korea, and maybe even Iran, will support him.
All he has done so far is threaten the rest of the world, and they have cringed in fear.

So, invading a country without provocation is not an "act of war", but trying to stop that invasion is.
Got it.
If Russia were not a nuclear power, I can see your point. But, war between them and us could lead to WWIII. Is that what you want? Greg Greg, don’t expect trapper to know that if planes or antiaircraft shooting from other countries shoots down Russian aircraft that is an act of war.

I suppose the question becomes "Are you willing to die for the Ukrainians?". Are you? Greg No, but I would die to fight for freedom. Obviously you won't. If you would die for freedom, how come you are a cult democrat? What is going on around you right here right now.

It's a pleasure to see some consistency out there. Many other previous antiwar voices have now become war hawks.

I find the fact that she's a Congressperson less disturbing than the fact that she's a respected journalist with 30 years of experience that interviewed everyone from Bill Clinton to Fidel Castro.
It shouldn't still surprise me that journalists are this dumb and ignorant. But yet it does.

What is the Biden administration's stance on the NFZ, again? Fortunately, they are opposed. And I know that the Pentagon spokesman has patiently been explaining to reporters why it's a bad idea (man has the patience of Job; I would've lost it by the 3rd NFZ question). And yet, we still have former officials, think tankers, talking heads, and others promoting a no-fly zone.
