    It's a dangerous moment as Russia continues to push into the Ukraine and Vladmir Putin feels unrestrained, Robin Wright explains. But how do you push back against a bully? And their military fierceness is needed for eace in Syria? NATO will have to consider the tough questions when they meet next week in Whales. Rich Lowry explains we are paying the price for passivity with ISIS. Burger King moves its headquarters to Canada. Is this corporate betrayal or rational tax practice? Google drones are coming.

    Matt Miller moderates from the Center. On the Left, Robert Scheer (Editor-in-Chief, TruthDig-dot-com). Rich Lowry (National Review) is on the Right. Robin Wright (journalist, author, fellow at the U.S. Institute of Peace and the Woodrow Wilson International Center).
