So let's do it, then; put some sanctions on Putin he'll feel & much dislike!
China has unknown capacities for cyberattacks, too. . .
They've been quiet as Communist Russia's pet/baby/arm.
We need to lock down our us of the internet & knock out anyone who ghets up to shenanigans thart sdon't fit the future world we seek.
Everyone agrees with the UN. that this attack by Putin was an illegal war.
As I say: "A law unenforced is a Permission."
Do you think Putin is b weginning to feel he is invincible?
I know all he REALLY wants is to end this by a treaty, byut keeping East Ukraine, with the oil, minerals, & natural gas.
They want to bludgeon Ukraine enough that they'll give up & say, "Gladly, keep the stupid land, let's just have PEACE! All we want is to live."
So far all is going according to plan, except the world us slower than expected in trying to force peace talks -- this attack is expenmsive for Russia, too -- they just want to be well into Ukraine before a new border is drawn between the two.
How mnuch do you think the West wants to force Putin's hand in backing up back into his old borders? It's doable, as you quote above. So let's do it, but the billionaires in charge are making money hand over fist using Russia & Ukraine, so they're nt going to let cthis go easily.
Remember what happened when a sitting president sought to end a profitable(for the billionaire manufacturers) war early?
He got removed quickly & concisely & in such a way that nobody is even trying to find out who ordered it. (I'm referring, of course, to the events of 22-Nov- 1963, in Dallas, TX)
Conspiracy theorist, am I? If you think that, you're part of how they're getting away with killing a sitting president in front of witnesses.
Better to focus on the peculiarities in the official story, than to blow off any such investigating.
As always: IMHO, FWIW, YMMV, & WGASA!

Hi All...
An exerpt from 60 Minutes, April 17
Dmitiri Alperovitch is well acquainted with Putin's tactics. As co-founder of the heavyweight cybersecurity company Crowdstrike, he helped trace the 2016 hack of the Democratic National Committee back to the GRU in Moscow. He currently is a member of the Homeland Security Advisory council. The Moscow-born Alperovitch has a theory why Putin hasn't launched a full scale cyberattack on the U.S. yet.
Dmitri Alperovitch: We have to let him know that you will not touch our
critical infrastructure without a response. And the way to do that, I think, i >through a cyber operation that can demonstrate our capabilities without lastin
damage. One of the ways you can do that, for example, is by taking Russia off the internet for a few hours. It won't cause any lasting impact, but it will
demonstrate the power of the United States Cyber Command, what we can do to hi
economy by disconnecting him, effectively, from the internet.
Bill Whitaker: We can do that?
Dmitri Alperovitch: We can absolutely do that. And we'll let him know that if he keeps going, if he keeps attacking us, we can make that permanent.
Ciao!
