Generals for Ukraine

I don't know if these generals can understand this, but Russia has legitimate security interests.

Just as the US would have opposed Mexico and Canada joining the Warsaw Pact during the Cold War, so too has Russia opposed Ukraine joining NATO. Is that too difficult for generals to understand?

At the personal level, I worked, at the Top Secret Codeword level, to enable USAREUR V Corps to counter a potential attack from the SCUDs and FROGs of the GSFG. 

We were worried about the ability of the GSFG to attack V Corps, which was defending the Fulda Gap.

But these were real threats, there in Germany, not out there in Eastern Europe.

The RF is not the USSR. Cannot these generals understand that?

What happens in Eastern Europe is not of critical importance to the US.

Are current generals nothing but pawns
