Ukraine: The New American War for Righteousness
My Corner ^ | 02/25/2022 | Boyd Cathy

No one—no one—wants war, with the resultant terrible destruction, loss of life, and mayhem it inevitably brings. But as I have written in previous essays, if you search for the profound cause for what has happened, it is not the invading Russians, it is not really the regime in Kiev, but rather it is the sponsoring apparatchiks in Foggy Bottom along the Potomac, in Brussels, and in the houses of Congress (the Lindsey Grahams and Roger Wickers who actually urge our potential use of nuclear weapons against Russia), and what Dr. Paul Craig Roberts calls the “pressitutes” in American media, from Fox News to MSNBC (which now are like an indistinguishable, foaming-at-the-mouth phalanx in their defense of the aggressive managerial world revolution).

“ A country with a criminally corrupt money-laundering oligarchy propped up by global financial elites, posing as a democracy while gripped in an 8 year civil war that has used American weapons to kill 30,000 inhabitant citizens, many civilians (dehumanized as “Russian separatists’) …becomes the western MEdia’s heroic freedom fighters”

I don’t think we’re supposed to know any of that!

This has been scrubbed from what little coverage I could stomach 🤪

Worth reading are the parts where he points to the fact that the largely Russian portions of the East of what became the Ukraine, and the Crimea, were administrative mistakes by Lenin, Stalin and Kruschev never intended to confer independent national legitimacy to places that had always been Russian.

Also emphasized is the efforts by our ruling elite neo-cons to throw Russia and the Russian people on the international scrap - heap, sort of like parts of the former Yogoslavia or Afghanistan, ignoring the geographic reality that it is a large area, and the political reality that the Russians are in many ways a very able and technologically advanced people who just happen to have the world's largest and most diverse nuclear stockpile.

And do not forget China as well, where Hunter received millions for some unknown “expertise”.

Putin certainly wants war. Russia is weak and can not dominate Ukraine economically.

A country with a criminally corrupt money-laundering oligarchy propped up by global financial elite....

...and acting as the willing bag man in a scheme to launder US aid into private pockets in the United States, including a former Vice President of the United States.

This part we are supposed to know about because the key beneficiary bragged about it.

We know his expertise. It's collecting and parking funds for the big guy.

" . . . the control by powerful elites in our (permanent) government and big corporations who talk incessantly about democracy, but in fact use that term to disguise the increasing dominance they exercise over every facet of public and private life, whether in the United States, Western Europe, or since 1991 over most of the former Eastern Bloc."

It is no accident that the globalists incessantly invoke "democracy" in their sloganeering. That word is employed to mask their real agenda, which includes the END of traditional notions of representative government and national sovereignty in favor of a situation in which elections are for show and politicians are mere errand boys for whatever the unelected bureaucrats demand.

Even as "democracy" is shouted from the rooftops, the real agenda favors censorship, disarming the population, the marginalization and persecution (if necessary) of religion (notably Christianity), the erosion of the middle class, the elimination of privacy, the control of travel, and the erosion of the right to private property. A veneer of phony "diversity" will be created in order to mask the increasing regimentation and homogenization of society.

Well, I hope the *actual* good-vs-evil fight now in Ukraine doesn’t spill over into the streets of the US. We’ll be on different sides.

All the wrong people and entities support Ukraine now: BidEn, the UN,Bush, Kerry, Soros, Hillary, 0bama, Romney,
NPR/PBS, CNN. Good luck to you, as Lin Wood likes to say.

DJT does not support the current government of Ukraine.

NPR supports Ukraine.
CNN supports Ukraine.
MSM supports Ukraine.

I knew very little about that until I was watching RT News recently. Strange that our media doesn't want to talk to those refugees about that subject. By golly, it's almost like government and media are one and the same!

You’re funny. I’m watching CPAC and the speakers all support Ukraine.

But if you want to support the communist thug, have at it. Just don’t pretend you’re a conservative or Republican.

What I am is a realist who has studied Russian history and the relationship between Russia and Ukraine going back over 500 years. You should do the same and then you might understand exactly what is going on. It’s a Security issue with the Russians and always has been.

And the biggest joke is that you’re quoting the charlatan Lin Wood to support your position! Nobody has helped the Democrats more!

You don’t need to lecture me, I understand Ukraine and Russia more than you do, I have roots in both countries. Ukrainians hate the Russians. They have a right to their own government, and I support the US helping them.
