Media didn’t tell you this: At the UN, 66 nations called for an end to Ukraine war.

Sixty-six UN members, most from the global south, have called for diplomacy to end the war in Ukraine, as required by the UN Charter. But few of the big power players are listening.

You know we are in trouble when Donald Trump is the voice of reason.

Idiot.

One day these dummies will realize their rabid, irrational dislike of Trump is hurting all of us.

Everybody wants peace. The question is what are the terms. And right now, there aren’t any terms that are acceptable to both sides. That’s just reality.

No, one side refuses to negotiate at all.....and that is Ukraine.

If it would not be for the US most Ukrainians still would have a roof over their heads and sleep in their own beds. Probably the eastern portion of the Ukraine which has a large portion of ethnic Russians and was constantly assaulted and antagonized by radical groups would have been annexed by Russia and things eventually would have settled down. The same goes for Europe if they had not jumped on the US bandwagon. The US purposely damaged the gas supply lines making sure that Europe in general and Germany in particular remains dependent on the US like a colony, just in case they may come to their senses and change their mind.

Those days when Russia had any ideas of expansion are long gone and over with and things of the past as Russia has more than enough and then some on its plate to take care of. All they want is a quiet neighborhood without NATO or CIA manipulation and intervention. Just like the US likes to keep their backyard free of any intruders, as expressed in the Monroe Doctrine. But the warmongers within the US government along with their associates and friends keep egging them on, knowing that a peaceful coexistence is bad for the production of war materials, especially the military industrial complex as well as the globalists, cranking out wartime supplies like there is no tomorrow and if they keep it up there may not be one. So, they keep stirring the pot until it will boil over and it isn’t too far from doing just

Today’s lefty warmongers were yesterday’s hippy flower power Vietnam War protesters.

Russia has insisted at the outset on keeping that Ukrainian territory. If that's Russia's position, there are no negotiations to be had because you know before you start that settlement is impossible.

The idiotic saber rattling against Russia didn’t turn out to be the hot button issue that drove voters to the polls that Dems (and NeoCons) hoped for. The big Kherson push is probably not going to materialize before the mid terms so Biden won’t be able to use that as some kind of victory.
I suspect this will be ratcheted down after Election Day

The “one side” refusing to go home and negotiate is, drum roll please, RUSSIA!

Russia and its fan club don’t want negotiations. They want Ukraine to surrender it’s sovereignty at gun point to a foreign nation. Why on earth would agree country do that?
