Roosia!
I was a mere lad when I first heard anything of any significance about Roosia.
The Berlin Airlift: What It Was, Its Importance in the Cold War
On June 24, 1948, Soviet forces blockaded all road, rail and water routes into Berlin’s Allied-controlled areas, stifling the vital flow of food, coal and other supplies. Soviet troop numbers dwarfed those of the Allies, which had drawn down after the war, so there was little the Allies could do about it militarily.

...next thing ya know they got me and my classmates doing "Duck and Cover" drills to prepare for a nuclear attack. The Rooskies didn't nuke us, but they threatened to and old Khruschev pounded his shoe on a podium at the United Nations and swore that he would bury us all.
Later on I found myself serving in the U.S. Military in a country where the Rooskies were funding the potential death of me and micro and a shitload of our buddies.
Then along came Ron and called the bluff of the Rooskies. Turns out they weren't quite as scary as the dems thought they were.
Now the Rooskies are trying to over run another country. It was only gonna take a couple of days.
I said all that so I can say this. We been running from the Rooskies for most of my 78 years of life. They have been the proverbial high school bully who had everyone scared to death of them. Right now they are taking a beating from the Visual Aids Nerd. Since we are afraid to do the job ourselves (by WE I mean Democrats) let's give the Ukrainians the tools to do the job.
