Sam Seder: There's a lot of reasons one could point to as to why what's happening with Russia's invasion of Ukraine could resonate with people in Europe and across the world in a different way than in other conflicts because Europe was the site of the last two world wars the only two world wars that we've had. Russia, a former superpower arguably you know at least militarily still one of the superpowers, I guess, and there's a lot of you know sort of and nuclear weapons. I mean and so there's a lot of reason why this conflict would get more attention than say the Saudis and our involvement in that assault on Yemen.
