Could Russia or China stop the USA from taking Cuba if we decided it was ours to take?
That is to say – could they stop the USA without a full-fledged inter-continental war?
Of course not – not if the powers that be in the USA were determined.
The time to stop the Ukraine War has come and passed.
To allow it to continue is a travesty to all that good people hold dear.
This is not a battle that Ukraine can ‘win’.
Literally countless human lives taken, generations destroyed – so many thousands of precious men, women, and children suffered and died horrible, unnecessary, violent deaths.
So much destruction it pushes beyond my own comprehension.
Yes, Putin is a maniac but a very calculating and determined man who has no care nor regret when it comes to factoring in the loss of human life and misery; Its clearly not a factor that deters him.
Our own powers that be – here in the US and in NATO – knew from day one that short of our [USA/NATO] going to war with Russia – there was no way to stop Putin from taking a slice of Ukraine. Period.
President Biden said it out loud.
It ought have ended then but he’s a weak President with too many self interests – and surrounded by too many interests of those who put and keep him in power – so the war began, and, the war continues.
Shame on them all.
Except the poor Ukrainian and Russian peoples! May God keep, protect, and comfort every one.
I weep for the great losses and pains of so many – pain which will go on for many generations to come – even long after the war ends… .
Some days, and not for my own sake, I do find myself praying for ‘the Kingdom to come’ … to come.
I’m just Sayin’ … .
