Interesting. My Ukrainian friends inform me of their opinions, which I tend to adopt, as I am not actually in comprehensive knowledge of the situation. I will consider your points, and discuss with my Ukrainian friends. Perhaps I am one of the bloviators. Granny always said, “If you’re pointing a finger at anyone else, you’d best remember that you have 3 fingers pointing back at yourself.”

This whole thing has me so angry. I never talk about it.

I know full well Putin is a criminal. I knew that in the 90s.

What didnt know is how evil the U.S. military industrial complex is.

This is what has me so... i dont even have the words.

The Pentagon WANTED this. They tried to make it happen.

Discovering this has changed my worldview.

I am NOT on some Russia bandwagon. I dont trust the Oligarchy of Russia at all. But damn if we are not almost exactly the same.

That is what has me more fired up that you could imagine.

I want to topple these MFers who will spend the blood of a whole generation of Ukranians to keep Russia from bringing BRICS online, and to assist their dream of building an oil pipeline from Iraq to Europe.

Its so gross.

Extremely salient point. It is nauseating to understand that we who’ve wrapped ourselves in the flag (our stars and bars), may be likewise bloodstained by the actions taken in her name. Humility is my best companion in this situation. It is painful because I have a high-ranking military loved one who changed from graduating seminary to Marine helicopter pilot, deployed to two tours of the Vietnam War and breaking my grandmother’s heart, by how the war changed his loving personality. I, too, feel for the Ukrainian people and for the innocent Russians in this fiasco.
