Lindsey Graham Asks Sec Antony Blinken If US Will Help Facilitate Arrest Of Vladimir Putin, why won't US designate Russia a state sponsor of terrorism

Russian oil revenues are down, but China are giving them support, so maybe China might stand in the way of Putin getting arrested

Going after terrorists is a tricky thing.

Say you've got a guy living in the US who is very credibly accused of putting a bomb on a civilian airline and killing everyone aboard.

You might think we'd eager to get him tried, perhaps in an international court. But no, he lived out his life in comfort in the good old USA.

Same for some people who put a bomb in a crowded department store, burning it down and killing an employee.

And then there's the fellows who used a car bomb to kill about fifty people, mainly women and children, as they were leaving religious worship.

You might think we'd have gone after these people hammer and tongs. But for some reason, we didn't.

I guess it was lack of resources. We can't do everything, after all. Especially now, with all those dangerous insurrectionists to prosecute. (I don't mean the ones throwing firebombs. The FBI has pulled off the people investigating them to go after the ones who walked into Congress.)

So, let's be careful before adding another terrorist investigation or prosecution to our government's burdens.

Putin isn't going be arrested

Good grief

Blinken should have told Graham to feel free to go to Moscow and arrest Putin.

A brilliant movie. One positive thing about the possibility of nuclear annihilation is that it opened up a whole new field for artistic creativity:
