At some point Stalin recognized that to slow the German advance - you had to burn it all down.

I hope that Ukraine is successful in fighting off Russian aggression - but if not, burn it all down (whatever that means).

I hope and pray that Trump will not end up sending American troops to fight Ukraine at Putin's bidding, but for now, I would not bet on that.
