War often comes to where food isn’t, too. As do riots, social unrest, political instability and mass migrations.

“...unjustified war...”

You mean like:

1) when Bill Clinton ordered a Hellfire missile strike on a commuter train in Serbia?

2) when Bill Clinton ordered the bombing of the Chinese embassy in Belgrade?

3) Obama/Clinton ordered missile strikes on Libya to kill Moammar Gadhafi? (We came, he saw, he died) Hillary Clinton.

I could add many hundreds more examples of unjustified war scenarios (committed by the West).

>> Biden is responsible for everything

Actually the machinery that installed him is... and the real idiots that voted for him.

NOTHING is Joe Biden’s fault. NOTHING is the progressive Marxists’ fault. It’s all Putin. If we had a president and political party that wanted America to be powerful they would unshackle the economy and we would EASILY make up for anything Russia and Ukraine took off the market. BUT... We have a slobbering child sniffing monster who has pledged to destroy the US energy market. As Rush Limbaugh said , “Oil is the engine of democracy.”

This is projection. US sanctions and Ukraine mining the area are the cause.

The supply chain was messed up a long time ago over covid. People should make their own food. Many countries are looking out for their own first.

Ukraine isn’t the only place where food comes from. Certain entities are purposefully disrupting all over the world to create a famine. We have had many wars and people have not been in this situation.

The baby milk problem isn’t because of Ukraine and Russia. So who is doing it? Who is responsible?

What Putin is doing is much like the dog lying on the hay in the manger and snarling at the horses so they cannot eat, yet the hay has no food value for the dog at all.

I dunno.

It might be worth the 300 billion the globalists stole from Russia...

When I talk about Biden, I mean the Biden adminiistration, which includes his handlers and his cohorts in the democratic party, and his accomplices in congress.

And, in reality, the 'idiots' didn't vote him in, since, it was a stolen election. Trump got voted in, but, democrats were able to overcome that advantage through millions of fake votes where they were needed.

Don’t be a fool. Putin has shut down shipping in the Black Sea with his foolish war.
