FOCUS: Predicts that Vladimir Putin has not long left for this world

By George Wilson  |  Let me predict that Vladimir Putin has not long left for this world. The ruble is being pumped up high by Russian reserves, but when the Western sanctions bite hard the Russian economy will tank and then the Russian people will revolt again. Or one of his generals will reach for his revolver.

ANOTHER VIEW: Will the war in Ukraine mean the end of Putin?

By Jack Bernard, contributing columnist |  I was in Los Angeles recently, visiting my brother, a longtime band leader who plays ethnic music of all sorts (Irish, German, Persian, Jewish and so on). One of his clarinetist musician buddies is from Ukraine, where he was once with the Kviv Radio and Television orchestra.

BRACK: The war in Ukraine: Can China become a peace negotiator?

By Elliott Brack  |  Please understand up front that we know few people who are well-versed about the country of Ukraine.  Certainly, we are not in that category.

FOCUS: Putin is just rattling sabers; he doesn’t want war

By Raleigh Perry  |  Vladimir Putin is often hard to read. However, today it seems that he is doing something that he has never done before.  First, he has stated unequivocally that he does not want NATO very close to Russia.  I do not have a problem with that request at all.  We did not want Russia in Cuba and got them out.
