The way out of this is not straightforward and it's easy to think there's worse to come. I'm glad the UK are now being encouraged to open our homes to refugees, but we've been far too slow to cut through the red tape.

Adolph Putin can't be allowed to get away with this.<br /><br />I'm beyond irritated that the world was so quick to go to Kuwait's defense when Iraq invaded yet has been so wishy washy with this aggression. And Ukraine is a democracy while Kuwait is not. Please tell me support of Kuwait wasn't just about the oil. Donna K.

My son just joined the Army and as the mom of four young men of fighting ages, I'm not at all eager to join the fray, but I'm also rational enough to know that power mongers don't stop just because you shake a finger at them and that what is happening is inhuman.
