Beware of the Ukraine Hussle. It is Total Cow Defecation
Note that Putin has erased The Ukraine and renamed it New Russia.
Biden Reports He, Along with the International Community, is Sending Training Personnel to the Ukraine for the F-16’s Already Sent.
Now, let me access my memory discs to discover where I last read about sending training personnel while promising that American boots would never be on the ground..
Yes, the memory discs whirred and sputtered a bit, but I believe that I retrieved it: Vietnam.
Are any of my readers acquainted with that long-ago war? I certainly am. I remember carrying a sign that read, “Hell No We Won’t Go.” It was fun, once you got the hang of it.
Today, it may be time to re-evaluate where the best place for our dwindling US forces. Actually, our military is in its worse shape in decades. Soon, we must have another war. Remind me to call Rosie the Riveter. We will have need of her soon.
I suspect that we may feed the Military Industrial Complex soon.. General Dwight D Eisenhower, later President Dwight D Eisenhower coined the phrase.
As a girl of 7-years old, I remember “I Like Ike,” signs and buttons. Interesting to note that this American hero did not leave, unlike some, with a huge war chest. In fact, people donated to a fund in order to buy him a house, near Gettysburg, Pa.
The old-fashioned politicals did not steal money. One newfangled one, Donald Trump, actually lost money during his presidency.
During Trump’s presidency, we had, an still do, the Media Industrial Complex.
That said, I will be voting for him, when I am permitted to, in Puerto Rico. It’s fun to live in Paradise, but if you move here , you are not permitted to vote in the general election, even though the Feds have a huge influence on our everyday life.
As all grown ups know, Life is not Fair. Consider Zelenskyy, who currently governs The Ukraine. He is a C.R.O.O.K. This slice of land has always been contested. He is the most corrupt of leaders. He is getting extremely wealthy by well-meaning American Useful Idiots.
He has a villa in Switzerland. My mother used to win yodeling contests, and my grandmother was born in Geneva, Switzerland. I do not have a villa in Switzerland. Do you?
Let’s take another look at the map, and throw in some historical details.
Ahh, here we have The Ukraine in bold print. According to Russian law, only nations contiguous with The Ukraine can pass through the Black Sea. Actually, not one of them wants to poke the Russian Bear. Very dangerous!
Here is another version. If you had taken a Russian History course, you would know that from the time of the Tsars, that an ice-free seaport was always sought. To make money one must have shipping. Russia has plenty of raw commodities that need shipped.
Russia is a huge landmass. It stretches all the way to Vladivostok in the Pacific. The Russians wrested Vladivostok from China. Today, it is the busiest port, and is ice-free. It serves Russia’s Far East trading. There are some Chinese and Japanese living there, but Russian is the spoken language.
Looks a bit like Cape Cod?
Still, an ice-free port near Europe is something that the former Soviet Union wants and needs. In 1905, Tsar Nicholas II fought a disastrous war for Crimea. He lost substantially and this was yet another reason for his ouster.
Revolutions are often completed by small groups. Consider Vladimir Ilyich Lenin, who came from, if not a wealthy family, then a “comfortable’’ family. His mother was a physician, and his father a school teacher who later was promoted to the Inspector of Schools.
At the time of the revolution, there were two main groups: Mensheviks and Bolsheviks. Lenin, exiled in Germany, was a Bolshevik. He was married to Nadezhda Krupskaya, who also served as his secretary.
Lenin did not approve of Stalin. While Lenin wanted every state and ethnicity to have equal standing with Moscow, Stalin wanted a top-down authoritarian state.
Stalin won. Lenin died in 1923. The cause of death has been retrospectively diagnosed as either a stroke or, a case of syphilis. Antibiotics were absent from the world until 1944, so it was widespread wherever people had sex. One supposes that the revolutionaries had more on their minds besides inactive venereal diseases.
Flash forward to July 6, 2023. Russia is still Russia with the need for a European ice free port. The Ukraine fits the bill to a T. Also, The Ukraine exports 28% of all our fertilizers to the USA.
More importantly, it is our breadbasket. It is also the Russian breadbasket. Many agricultural products are shipped worldwide from The Ukraine.
Hungry anyone? Next time you go to the supermarket and faint at the prices, look no further than who is in charge. The New Democratic Socialist Party.
Yes, they own this one. As a child, my parents used to say, “Give ‘em hell Harry!” This was all about Truman. Another wise thing that man said was, “The Buck Stops Here.”
Oh yes. Remember that when you vote next. Our bucks stop at the Obiden regime.
Let them eat cake, and vote for the first non-Rino you see.
