| #5 "The credibility of International Law is at stake". So dumb, only an expert or a politician would go for it. Nuking international trade systems decades in the making so Tiny Ken gets his olive drab onesie. And I see the proponents are taking a cut. Remember when we used to point and laugh at loser countries nationalized and confiscating money and property? Remember? |

| #3 It may be fun to punk the Russians, but is it worth burning down international financial systems to do it? Trust is one of those things that once it is gone is hard to get back. |
