The notion that those who start wars should be exempt from dying, because, well after all “They” DID start the wars, and sent the little people to die in their absence.
How on God’s green earth did We The People agree to such arrogance. O wait, we didn’t.
Nuke em till they glow, I’ll not Shed a tear regarding the deaths of these arrogant self-serving fucks.
Personally, I see the swift violent removal of “ they/ them ” as an actual deterrent to war.

Innocent people, in D.C.? Snort.

First of all, why is this suddenly news? Couldn’t an enemy/adversary find the friggin’ street address to any of these places by looking in the 1935 White Pages? I don’t understand why Russia’s publishing of open information is somehow threatening to me. Of course they know exactly where all the “decision-makers” spend a lot of time.
Further, from the end of the cited article….
…It is the West that has done all these things. It is the West who is the aggressor.
Russia is reminding the West that Russia isn’t some backwards, third-world country like Iraq they’re playing around with. Russia isn’t playing.
[If Russia isn’t a “backwards, third-world country, then they’re sure doing a good impression.]
And this brings up something that’s been gnawing at me for a while. There’s an axiom that comes up every now and then that says “Don’t let the perfect be the enemy of the good“, and most of us understand what that means. You can wait forever for the perfect, most exquisite moment to accomplish something, and never get it done. Sometimes good is good enough.
But I think that there’s another side of that coin: “Don’t let the evil be the enemy of the bad.”
I’ll offer a bit of fisking to the article….
…Before the west goes and declares Russia to be the most evil one, perhaps they should look in the mirror at their own actions: Financing, inciting and fomenting the overthrow of the Ukraine government in 2014….
Did we do this? Maybe. Probably….but the truth is that I don’t know. What’s the difference between support of a true ally and support of a corrupt toady who you’re trying to move into your column? And if we did offer all this nefarious support, so what? Does that allow Russia the right to do the same?
…Installing a puppet regime in Ukraine….
Again, Russia sought to topple the Zelensky government (as corrupt as they may be), and install a government favorable to them.
…Moving to bring Ukraine into NATO for the purpose of placing US missiles (aimed at Russia) on to Ukraine soil with a flight time of only about 5 minutes to Moscow….
Got it. The Russians don’t like having ‘splody stuff pointed at them. I completely understand. But do the Russians really believe that the Ukranians or the Poles or the Latvians would welcome Russian arms pointed at them? Or, is it maybe just a little bit reasonable for the Uke’s, Pole’s, and Lat’s to want to join a coalition that would prevent these things?
…Telling Ukraine to “ignore” Russia’s pre-special military operation ultimatum, and now, supplying deadly weapons to Ukraine, to be used to kill Russians.
Oh. I see. The “deadly weapons” that the Russians are using in their “special military operation” [sic] against Ukraine are OK, but the minute the Uke’s acquire a reasonable response, then Russia is all upset about this.
It’s all the same double-standard crap that both sides–the Left and the Right–engage in all too frequently.
Do I believe that Zelensky and Ukraine represent a worthy and true ally? I don’t know, and I really don’t care. What I do believe is that Putin and Russia are displaying themselves as a true and committed enemy to the US and the West, and that their incursion into Ukraine ought to be stopped. In Ukraine. Before it spreads further into Western Europe.

This rotten assed gov’t has stolen more than half of everything I have ever had all of my life and from the day I was born it has treated me like a criminal. Except when I was too young to understand, all of my life I have witnessed thousands upon thousands of instances where this rotten assed gov’t has harmed and destroyed others. Not once, not even once, has any facet of this rotten assed gov’t be a benefit to anyone except the criminals that occupy it. I have no use for any of this rotten assed gov’t and “We the people” will excel in it’s absence, and I believe life in this country and others will be magnitudes better if it were just gone. A larger more nefarious criminal enterprise has never existed in world history than this rotten assed gov’t. I wish ALL of it dead in any way that it can happen.

Meh.
Guess the rooskies will need to strap on retail gps devices to the 30yr old missiles to use them.
If Russia needs a few bucks to expedite delivery,,,,,,im in for 100.00. Hell it’s the patriotic thing to do, this weekend especially.

Ghost, you do not have a monopoly on hating the MF’er who run our government, from that idiotic pedophilic asshole in the Oval Office and his Deep State buddies all the way down through all levels of federal and state government to the local affirmative action hire at the county where I renew my auto tag.
Anyone with a brain hates the MF’ers too but the last damned I want to see is WWIII or even the limited use of nukes anywhere because that act will lead to WWIII. And, for my own selfish reasons I’m too damned old and infirm to roam the countryside with any partisan group to help administer long overdue justice to the local assholes.

Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I reach my hands and play with pebbles of destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light

Interesting, sounds as if the RIGHT people are about to die! Good news indeed.
The notion that those who start wars should be exempt from dying, because, well after all “They” DID start the wars, and sent the little people to die in their absence.
