This is pretty much how I feel after having watched the evening news reports on the war in Ukraine. I know, I've been harping on it for a while now and I still don't get it.
Get what? Why do the U.S. and NATO continue the threat of the WWIII narrative? I, of course, don't know for sure, but here's my take.
Putin will not go into his nuclear arsenal to attack us. He knows full well that if he does, he too will be attacked and we would all be obliterated. This is not his game plan. He cannot rebuild the old Soviet Union if he is dead.
He may unleash chemical weapons on the Ukranians if the war continues to go against him. Should that happen I can't help but wonder if we will hide behind even more sanctions that seem to be hurting us more than him while at the same time turning his people against us.
Why can't we quit huffing and puffing and step up to the plate? Determine what the Ukranians need to give them an advantage and get it to them. Get them the planes they need. Get them the ammunition they need and the arms. And quit blaming others for our lack of action.
How can our leadership sit by and watch this carnage and do little more than posture? And lie. Yes. Lie. They seem to forget that we are watching this war unfold in real-time. We're watching the shelling destroy homes. We're seeing the bodies lying dead in the streets. We're watching millions of people trying to flee.
This is a war that didn't have to happen. I just wonder what more is in it for our leadership than what Hunter Biden and his Uncle have already brought home for family and friends.
It disgraces the United States of America and us. You. Me. We deserve better and so does the world.
November can't get here soon enough. And remember, both parties need to purge their leadership and start over again. This should be a bipartisan effort because neither side deserves the following they have so far duped.
Yes. I'm old and I'm tired. Tired of war to be sure. And even more tired of politics as usual.
