Be very afraid!

The rest of the world has played that game too long, and let him get away with it. Call his bluff. He invaded another country, and is trying to take it by force. The one thing I blame Obama for is letting Putin get away with taking Crimea. It just set a precedent. We will never see the end of his schemes if he is rewarded again this time.

Of course, the wild card is his protege.
