I do not support:
Putin & his murderous war in Ukraine.
Zelensky & Nazi militias in his corrupt country.
Neocons, Neolibs, or the Uniparty foreign policies that have spent trillions in senseless foreign wars.
I support the American People only and call for all of this to end.

NEW - Israel’s Minister of Communications: “The war [in Ukraine] is terrible but the comparison to the horrors of the Holocaust and the final solution is outrageous.”

Zelensky’s claim that the Ukrainians were righteous gentiles who saved Jews in the Holocaust is sick historical revisionism. The Ukrainians were active, enthusiastic Nazis. Ukrainian Jewry wasn’t annihilated in Poland, but in Ukraine, by their neighbors.

NATO+USA+France killed 55k+ civilians in Libya because they wouldn’t accept the jihadist rule that NATO+Obama admin eventually bombed into power there. Those brutal jihadists still rule that poor country today. The Russian people are correct to be terrified of NATO. twitter.com/JackPosobiec/s…
Also no Pole served as a guard at the death camps. Many Ukrainians did. Germans knew better than to give a Pole a rifle, because they knew the first thing the Pole would do with it is to shoot the German.

Why NATO Can’t Match Russia’s 2,000 Tactical Nuclear Weapons
Russia’s Tactical Nuclear Weapons:
A Head Scratcher for the West – Can Russia win a war with tactical nuclear weapons? Moscow certainly has a numbers advantage against the United States and NATO. The Russians have around 2,000 tactical nuclear weapons while the Americans have only 200 with 100 deployed in Europe and the remaining stored at home. That’s a ten to one advantage. While the Russians are not likely to conduct a first strike with strategic nuclear weapons launched by an intercontinental missile or delivered by bombers, they could resort to using a non-strategic weapon in battle.
Russia’s Tactical Nuclear Weapons, Explained
Strategic nuclear weapons such as intercontinental ballistic missiles or sea-launched nuclear missiles have a range of more than 10,000 miles and yields of at least 150 kilotons. Tactical nuclear weapons are short-range when launched by missiles with a range of fewer than 650 miles and a low yield of .1 to 20 kilotons.
Russia’s Tactical Nuclear Weapons: Escalate to De-Escalate
When pondering the use of tactical nuclear weapons, the Russians have an “escalate to de-escalate” deterrence doctrine on the battlefield. This is sometimes called “escalate to win.” What does this mean? Let’s take a look at an example. Say Russia does execute an invasion into the Donbas region in eastern Ukraine. The incursion goes well for the Russians at first, then Ukraine fights back hard and stages a counter-attack. The Russian offensive bogs down and a stalemate ensues.
Hold Ground, Keep Attacking, or Use Tactical Nukes
Russia then has a choice. It could continue the conventional fight or stop the offensive, hold ground, and consolidate its forces around the seized territory. This is where tactical nuclear weapons come in. Russia could choose to “escalate” and detonate one of these battlefield devices (using an Iskander-M short-range missile) or threaten to use a low-yield weapon as a warning to the West. Then they “de-escalate” the situation, so it is frozen in place. Under this scenario, the Ukrainians would give up the fight and allow Russia to keep their forces inside Ukraine allowing Vladimir Putin to declare victory. The Russian’s willingness to get in a nuclear confrontation using tactical devices is a risky, but potentially effective way to prosecute warfare.
The Russians Make Nuclear Threats
The Russians have already declared they could use a low-yield weapon or deploy intermediate-range nuclear missiles if pushed too far. Deputy Foreign Minister Sergei Ryabkov, has emerged as “Dr. Doom” as he often delivers threats against the United States and NATO in the media. Ryabkov has responded to what the Russians believe is a major red line – further NATO expansion in Eastern Europe. Ryabkov told state-run media in December that “A lack of progress towards a political-diplomatic solution would mean that our response will be military and military-technical.”
Military-Technical Could Mean Nuclear Employments
“Military-technical” is a difficult to define concept of Russian rhetoric. It has many meanings. But one military- technical tactic would be for the Russians to send nuclear weapons to Kaliningrad or Belarus. Ryabkov has already raised the nuclear stakes by warning that Russia could go beyond tactical weapons and deploy intermediate range nuclear missiles in Europe.
The Russian Nuclear Threat Is Not Going Away
James Ragland and Adam Lowther, pointed out the Russians have held military exercises such as GROM -2019 and ZAPAD 2021 in which they have simulated using tactical nuclear weapons. Putin has made comments in the past about the potential use of battlefield nuclear devices.
Ragland and Lowther also declared that Russia has a low-yield nuclear edge,
“…The reality is that Vladimir Putin and the Russian leadership believe they have created an asymmetric advantage with their large arsenal of low-yield battlefield nuclear weapons. Denying and mischaracterizing the threat will not make it go away.”

I’m old enough to remember 9/11 and the invasion of Iraq. The media atmosphere now is very similar. Anything the White House and intelligence agencies say, the news outlets report as fact. Any and all dissent will be dismissed as collaborating with the enemy and crushed.
Back then you were a “Saddam-apologist” for questioning the WMD narrative, or a “terrorist sympathizer” for questioning the War on Terror. Now you are a “Putin-apologist” for questioning the current narrative. Same tricks, different names.

Zelensky has used martial law to ban a number of Ukrainian opposition parties, including the largest party after his own. https://trib.al/J9jBwkd

Something must be done to end this cycle where people’s opinion or thought on subjects like origins of Covid19 to Hunter’s laptop, are ridiculed and punished to the point of lost earnings power - mockers never penalized for their destruction.
First amendment defacto destroyed.

Policy for ending the war is the same policy that would have prevented it. No NATO. No EU. Ukraine is neutral. Donbass is autonomous, but pro-Russia. Ukraine should have been peacefully divided like Czechoslovakia in 1992. I met with MPs in Bratislava. They said it was a win-win.

Jim, I have not yet heard your suggestion for what to do about this NOW?
Zelensky is so full of shit.
First, he demands Israeli weapons from the Knesset, claiming Ukraine was a safe haven for Jews in the holocaust.
And then, he banned 11 opposition parties but left the Nazi parties.— Avi Yemini (@OzraeliAvi) March 20, 2022
