War Is Hell
American Thinker ^ | 3 Apr, 2025 | J.B. Shurk

Resist the globalist push for WWIII.

War is an “unpleasant business.” That two-word euphemism reflects the divergent experiences of two separate groups: those who profit from violence and those who experience violence firsthand. For anyone in the latter group, war is hell. That’s how Civil War general William Tecumseh Sherman described it, and he was an expert in the subject. He set everything ablaze on his marches through the South. Scorched-earth conquests are meant to break the spirit of opposing soldiers and civilians alike, and Sherman broke everything in his sight.

SNIP

While European politicians inch closer to waging war directly with Russia over Ukraine’s thirty-year-old borders, perhaps it’s worth remembering who Ukraine’s leaders are. A former adviser to holdover-president Volodymyr Zelensky says Ukraine has a secret last-ditch doomsday plan that involves blowing up all of their nuclear power plants in an act of self-destruction that would make the Chernobyl disaster look minuscule by comparison. Calling Zelensky and his senior staff “a group of deranged people,” the whistleblower explains the suicidal rationale as “we all bite the dust, but so will they.” European governments wish to conscript boys and girls and send them off to war to defend Ukrainian madmen who would scorch their own country — and irradiate much of the continent.

If nobody lives, no problem! In an effort to mitigate Ukraine’s demographic death spiral after sacrificing the country’s healthy, young men, business leaders want to relocate more than eight million migrants from Africa and Asia to provide cheap labor for all the post-war rebuilding. That’s nearly twenty percent of Ukraine’s population. As Raheem Kassam warned last year, Ukraine will soon be Europe’s “first African nation.” Now, that’s a model Germany, France, and the U.K. would love to follow!

On a related note, a quote...

“War is the health of the State.”

Randolph Bourne

We’ve been here before. Rand Paul. The unpredictable Chris Christie of the Senate

Who knows what motivates him. Who cares?

First place he’s a doctor. Doctors are notorious for not knowing how to run an organization based on any economic model. Famous for being horrible administrators

And no mention that it was Russia who started this war, that it is Russia that is prosecuting this war, and that it is Russia who could end this war by just going home.

There won’t be as many useful idiots standing in between the war pigs and the people this time. The war pigs had better think twice. The people know who they are.

We provoked this war. The US is culpable. The Baker agreement was violated.

Complete nonsense! The biggest victory, and the biggest lie, that the Russians have achieved in this war is the idea that they were provoked by the threat of NATO expansion. Read what the Russians say among themselves, what they teach in their academies. The Russian nationalists have not accepted the reality of Ukrainian independence. They see Ukraine as a rebellious part of Russia, as an artificial state created by the anti-Russian west. Rather than being provoked by any threat from NATO, they were motivated by a perceived weakness on the part of NATO. Putin thought that this was his opportunity to correct the mistake of Ukrainian independence.

You just hate Russia, which is complete nonsense.

I suspect you are a foreigner who also hates America and is just using us as a paycheck.

That's a misquote.

What Sherman actually said was, "War is like hell."

And he was only guessing because he'd never been there.
