There are no red lines, just red tape, and BS

Posted on by

Where is the political will? Where are the values? The morals?

Exactly one month to go to the American election. Whoever will be president, please God they can focus on real issues, and also, grow some balls.

“russia targeting an orphanage, a playground, or a children’s cancer hospital has become a routine the world got used to. Ukraine striking military bases and airfields deeply inside russia is considered an escalation to be avoided. What a shameful time for the free world.“

“Russian invasion is on a world war scale, but Ukraine alone is fighting it, keeping us in a 1938-like historical moment. Meanwhile, the White House continues to accept Russia’s arbitrary new rules of warfare, which is the only thing preventing Russian defeat.”

“Ukraine is not allowed to strike military targets in russia but russia is allowed to hit kid’s playgrounds in Ukraine? What a strange war!“

“There is no alternative to Ukraine winning this war. Because if Russia wins, then all of us lose – not only in Europe but worldwide.” Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen spells out what’s at stake in Ukraine.

“Freedom is not just an absence of evil. Freedom is a presence of good. It is the value of values, the condition in which we choose and combine the good things, bringing them into the world, leaving our own unique trace. It is positive.”

Missiles and more missiles

How many missiles do these lunatics haves? It just doesn’t seem to ever end. And of late, the intensity of the attacks has increased. Also, so many of the components in these missiles come from Western companies. I guess we are starting to understand some of the downsides of globalization, er, greed.

If missiles were raining down in the city where you lived and no one seemed to be in a hurry to come to your aid then how would you feel?

If Ukraine falls (which I can’t imagine will happen) then the world is going to go to hell. This I believe with all of my being.

Russia invaded Ukraine full on. Ukraine posed no threat to Ukraine. Russia just didn’t want a vibrant, spirited ex-girlfriend living next door. And if they can’t get the girlfriend back, then they want to try and destroy her. That is pure evil. This is not just about Ukraine and Russia – this is more about good and evil. And if the world doesn’t come to its senses soon and pick a side, then the evil will spread. The dictators of the world are all becoming buddies but the democracies in the free world are not united. This is a big problem.

What really boggles my mind is that the combined economies of the world’s largest free-market nations are a giant combined when compared to Russia which has an economy the size of Texas. And yet , for some reason, sending aid to Ukraine is like pulling teeth. It just makes no sense to me.

“It is Russia’s Putin, not Putin’s Russia. This is something that many people do not understand. It is not Putin’s war against Ukraine. Even if you take out Putin, nothing will change. He is a symptom of a much bigger sickness.”

Please God something changes soon

I am on a train. Just left the central station in Kyiv. In about 20 hours I will be in Wroclaw. The train is full and quiet. The mood is hard to describe.

I had a few people ask me how things felt In Kyiv compared to a month ago. Nothing has changed, and that is the problem. Where is the US funding? Where are the F-16’s? Where are the replenishment air defense missiles? The ammunition? Yes, everyone is waiting for the support to arrive, but it still has not. Something better change soon. Ukrainians are growing more and more mistrusting of America, and it is easy to understand why.

On Thursday at 3 am there was another big missile strike on Kyiv. From what I understand from the news, no one died. But there was a lot of destruction. I was in the bomb shelter from 3 am until just after 6 am. There were mothers with us, with small children. It is all so insane. How can this be happening in this day and age? Of all the problems in the world, this one was made by one evil little man, and his mad friends. It makes no sense. What is the point of this war?! The world is fast asleep in my view, and I think we are going to all pay a price for this complacency. A bigger war is coming. Russia is like a cancer – it will keep spreading, unless it is stopped. The evils of the world are all becoming pals, and the democracies in the West are not united.

Then on Friday in the small hours there was another huge missile strike on Kyiv, and in other parts of the land. It is just pure evil. And the evil is spreading. Russian helped the evil that Hamas unleashed last year on Israel. I will bet the farm on this.

Do you let cancer spread … ?

In the Kyiv Independent this morning this is one of the stories, Elon Musk, Republican senators lobby against passage of Ukraine aid.

It has often been said that there are no winners in a war. Yes, this makes perfect sense.

Ukraine was not into war. I had been in Kyiv for quite some time and Ukrainians were into progress, innovation, creativity. In the capital of Ukraine there was an amazing energy. No aggression. At least not that I ever experienced. It is their deranged neighbour that started this war, and it will not stop until they are stopped.

The magnificent ex-girlfriend called Ukraine was becoming more Western, more open, more free, more beautiful, more of everything and the ex-boyfriend next door was jealous and envious and threatened. And not that Ukraine ever wanted to be this girlfriend. The Soviet Union was not their choice. As for Russia, this is not a sign of strength. Quite the opposite. This is a clear display of their own insecurity, because they have nothing else. Nothing to fall back on. If they had gotten on with developing their own country then perhaps things would be different. Or perhaps they are just plain evil. Whatever the reason, Russian aggression is like a cancer, and if it not stopped, it will keep spreading.

Ukraine is brave. It is not lacking in will or spirit. If they stop Russia they are stopping the cancer from spreading. It is just incredible that supposedly smart people like Musk, whose vast fortune has its foundations in the free world, would not acknowledge this. Who would protect Musk’s fortune in a non-free world. Putin ?! Surely Musk can’t be that naïve and stupid.

Here is a simple story to contemplate. Let’s say Musk and his family were living next to a mad neighbour who was known to be a bully. And then this neighbour wakes up one day and starts to attack Musk and his family, in their home. Should Musk just give up, because the bully is much bigger and scarier ?! If the bully is not stopped they will then bully the next house. Sadly, the bully will always live next door. They are not moving. But, that does not mean they have to bully you. If you stop the bully then the battle will stop. The fight won’t stop because the bully suddenly says “I made a mistake”. Russia is a bully, with nothing else to do except fight with others, and Russia has to be stopped because they will not stop on their own.

Musk is reckless and unhinged these days. And he is no role model. I remember about 5 or 6 years ago when Musk’s mom came to Kyiv and it created a lot of excitement. Since then this family has had much of their madness exposed in the news. They sound like a bunch of nutters. Musk is not making any sense.
