The storm has broken. The rain of destruction falls upon the Ukraine. No one acts. All stand on the sidelines hoping that sanctions will stop the conflict. Yet all the evidence contradicts that belief. Deaths mount. Cities are captured or destroyed. More sanctions. More talk. The Ukrainians fight valiantly, beaten severely by their more powerful neighbor while the world watches. All fear Putin. All fear his nuclear power. Have they not learned from history? When he has devoured the Ukraine, what will he do next? A time of consolidation. Then, another victim country.
