I have a brother out there in Kiev.
Allow my prayers to be with him..

We (the US) are not going to risk getting directly involved in Ukraine, so the people there will be forced to fight for their sovereignty and freedom..

But I think we will be surreptiously shipping weapons and supplies to them via Poland and other neighboring countries.

But if the Ukrainian people want to remain independent, it will be up to them and how much of a sacrifice they will be willing to make.

Putin and he Russians may talk tough, but I don't think there is much stomach for a protracted war, and occupation of territory populated by people who remember when Stalin starved 25% of the Ukrainian people during the 1930's. The cost of holding any part of non-peninsular Ukraine, and maybe even Crimea as well, may become very prohibitive, both in treasure, and blood..
