The Commerce of War

Just how cleverly ineffective are sanctions? Currently berthed in the French port of Saint-Nazaire is the first of two advanced-tech Mistral—Class Carriers waiting delivery to Russia. Built by the French shipbuilder, DCNS (75 percent-owned by French Gov’t), it should be quite clear that in the industry of arms there is no ideological allegiance.

As history proves, sanctions lead to war and war leads to profits. What can the U.S. do short of pressing forth with the inevitability that the current strategy will bring? The rational approach is to recognize the Crimean referendum and focus on lending support to building an independent Ukraine that in 10 years is a show-case for the power behind a sovereign people bound by a common ideal.

Show the strength and supremacy of your ideals in the statement of outcome and leave, if we must, the blustering to the likes of President Obama, Senator John McCain and Senator Harry Reid!
