    Curious to know the main reason?

    The war in Ukraine...

    Horrible thread title to start, ridiculous really, totally unnecessary; but Putin has done it... it seems crazy. :( I think we - Nato / the West / Democracies - should arm and finance Ukraine. I think we should have a zero tolerance of infringement of NATO airspace and territory. And I think...
