What an apology!

I proffered an unequivocable apology twice. You rejected it twice. Anything I wrote after that was no longer an apology. Rather, by that point, I was gently chiding you for your obstinacy.

Indeed, even a well-meaning "Get over yourself!" is something you apparently find intolerably wounding. Hence my characterization of you as "over-sensitive."

You are the one now resorting to invective and name-calling. You are the one now being abusive.

[...] you have no concern at all about the people of Ukraine or their best interests. Their best hope is that President Trump will negotiate a lasting peace with Russia [...]

On the contrary: I have at no time criticized President Trump's heroic efforts to broker a peace! Where are you getting this?

[...] and ensure that fair and free elections will give the Ukrainian people an opportunity to decide the future of their country and not a corrupt puppet leader who takes his orders from the EU and not his own people.

Why only the Ukrainian people? Why not also the Russian people? Should not fair elections also be held in Russia? Shouldn't a corrupt leader like Putin likewise be deposed? Why do you limit your criticism to Ukraine? Is Putin beyond reproach? Your argumentation seems very one-sided!

Now, stop fighting with me and wish your wife a Happy Mother's Day! Boobs like us are incredibly lucky to have women like her and the children that they have given us.

Finally, a breath of fresh air! Thank you for your kind thoughts! Give my best (unbekannterweise) to your lovely wife, as well!

Regards,

I have been very critical of Putin many times in this forum, but there is little doubt that he has a high approval rating among the Russian people. And this is not the result of outside manipulation from foreign powers. So, your comparisons between Putin and Zelensky are invalid.

It is not the job or responsibility of the United States or the EU to interfere in the internal affairs of other countries. There is a long history of botched foreign policy efforts that prove that this type of manipulation leads to nothing but folly... which is a concept that a person who consistently expresses a globalist point of view has a difficult time conceiving.

Whether or not the effort is well meaning or if the real goal is to secure valuable natural resources or some type of perceived strategic advantage makes no difference. As you well know Ukraine and Russia have a close relationship that goes back beyond a millennia. The origin of both countries are from a common root. The well-known efforts of Western Intelligence Agencies, and Soros backed groups to install Western leaning leadership there was always doomed to horrific failure which has now proved to be a disaster for the people of Ukraine. And no, this was not by their choice it was a coordinated foreign effort similar to earlier and continues efforts still taking place.

Misguided do-gooders such as yourself have been influenced by a never-ending barrage of propaganda that has caused you to lose your ability to come to rational conclusions. And this leads you to make equivocations and resort to prevarication without even being aware that you are doing it. It would be comedic if it were not a process that leads to death, misery, and the destruction of culture and infrastructure.

Your recent statements show clearly that you feel that you are morally superior to others when in reality you constantly advocate for war, death, destruction, hatred of other peoples and tricking the populations of other countries into servitude. The $Hundreds of Billions spent, and millions of lives lost in the Ukrainian debacle are not seen by the vast majority of the world's population as something honorable, but as a powerful example of why Western countries are an evil influence in the world today.

This perception while it is obviously not completely valid is perpetuated by people in the West such as yourself. You have stuck your head in the sand while all of this mayhem has been occurring and keep repeating sloganistic, virtue signaling nonsense that is easily seen through by populations living in other parts of the world most of whom have not had the "benefit" of a Western education.

My wife and I are making our weekly trek to the Museum of Flight this morning where we constantly come into contact with tourists from foreign countries while she is volunteering. I know that you have some similar contact with a less diverse group of people but somehow you do not seem to let the opinions and observations of others with a different point of view make a dent in your world view. At this point I believe that this you are blinded by your own arrogance. Your self-awareness seems to be severely limited which after communicating with you over a period of years is surprising to me considering your background and experiences.
