We Should Oppose Russia With All the Military Might We Can Muster

    U.S intelligence agencies believe Russia could mount an attack on Ukraine within a month, prompting the Biden Administration to signal Russia that it will arm Ukrainian militias to fight against Russia. 

   The U.S. should not respond with just weak-handed sanctions. We, NATO, the U.N., the Ukrainian militias, and all countries that can lend a hand should combine their military might to oppose Russia. Can Russia out-muscle the military might of all the world? I would think not. However, who knows how many contries Russia might be able to enlist to aid them. Iraq? Iran? Syria? Egypt? the United Arab Emirates? South Korea? Maybe even China. And, others might sign on. Depending on how many nations Russia could recruit, this could, indeed, be World War III.

   The thought scares me. We will hope I am wrong, overreacting. The fancy word is hyperbole. We can hope that is what my thoughts amount to. But, the same, we should oppose Russia with all the military might we can muster.
