Uh huh. The US was fighting in the known space (technological, operational, tactical) of the Cold War.

Its a very different world now, 30 years on, with dozens of new technologies about which we understand little, in terms of how they fit in military-political plans.

And personal pique is a poor excuse for decision making. Perspective is key. A vast knowledge of history and an ability to see things from the proverbial 50,000 feet is a necessity.

Its a hard sell, but there we are. As conservatives we should be willing to put in the effort, to do the work. Thats what distinguishes us from the emotional, craptastic, fashionista idiots on the other side.

Its the difference between those who stand, and so the earths foundations stay (apologies to A.E.Housman), and those ... others.

Look FRiend my apologies for being so strident but I just don’t see this as our fight and Zelenskys virtual mugging of our treasury really pisses me off.

Let Europe handle this. It’s their back yard, not ours.

Our stand should be with Israel.

They’re killing our enemies, the Muslims.
