How on earth did we get to this point?

1. psst, planet Earth should be capitalized. Otherwise you’re talking about dirt.

2. The Old Testament of the Bible noted that the “sins of the fathers are visited unto the seventh generation”. I believe that this was based on multiple observations of certain families through the decades. By my reckoning, the Kennedy family have another 2 generations (40 years) to pay for the sins of Joe Kennedy from the 1920’s/30’s.

   I have met many fine Ukrainians in Canada but sadly, what they did to the Jews in World War II (killing them, providing much of the staff for the concentration camps) means that they have another 2 generations (40 years) of suffering to endure. The western governments are beholden to the military-industrial complex which President Eisenhower warned about. This war is ALL about the provision of arms to the Ukraine and western governments paying for them.

3. Tucker Carlson is wrong on every point, as he always is. He’s been claiming that Russia will and should win from the beginning because he is a medievalist and further, a moron. It can be assumed at all times of every day that out there somewhere, Tucker Carlson is being wrong about something or multiple somethings.

   1. I watch Tucker any chance I get. Far from perfect, but he has a differing opinion from a lot of so-called conservatives and that’s always interesting. Your review indicates he’s on target and achieving his goal. Hence, you’re whining.
      You were asked to prove he’s wrong. You didn’t even try.
      BTW, your movement killed two more police officers yesterday.

      1. “Your review indicates he’s on target and achieving his goal. Hence, you’re whining.”

         A succinct summary of the ‘thought process’ of your typical Carlson supporter ie moron.

   2. Hey UnMe, when the time comes that you earn 1 dollar MORE in a year than what Tucker Carlson earns in a WEEK,is the time you can call him a moron, you moron.

   3. He’s not saying Russia will and should win. He’s saying it’s not America’s war to fight or fund. Quit being a Zelensky stooge.

      1. 1) He has previously stated that he supports Russia. 2) He is simply wrong about it not being in America’s interest to fund Ukraine. It is very much in our interest. Putin is an increasingly hazardous head of an increasingly hazardous state. He has been undermining the free world and its interests for decades now. If he were to have his way in Ukraine he’d go supernuts and so would the Russian people. In this scenario nuclear conflict becomes far likelier than it is now.

4. Depends on what you mean by “wrong”.

   If your world view is so venal and myopic that you simply do not give a crap about anyone who is not American then maybe Tucker has a point. But adopting such a world view comes with cost. Specifically, it undermines the US position in the world and ensures that no one will give a crap about what the US wants as authoritarian regimes take over.

   More directly, failing to do anything about Ukraine would virtually guarantee a Chinese invasion of Taiwan and the loss of US access to the Taiwanese chip making facilities. As it stands, Ukraine success, thanks entirely to Biden’s support, has ensured that Xi will be more cautious. In fact, the global economic cost of war in Ukraine is likely to remind Xi that even if Chinese missiles can take out the entire US fleet that the resulting chaos will be very bad for China. The worst thing the US can do is let regimes like China believe that invading their neighbours is a painless exercise. Yet Tucker wants to send exactly that message.

   1. Yes, it makes so much sense to invest billions in a war between Russia and a non-NATO country than it would to spend that money to stop the flow of Chinese fentanyl across our southern border. Simultaneously the west is destroying its own ability to support not only its citizens, but its heavy industries with energy. All those heavy industries will eventually decamp to Asia, because they have no other option.

      Xi is winning in every possible way that matters.

      1. >> Yes, it makes so much sense to invest billions in a war between Russia and a non-NATO country than it would to spend that money to stop the flow of Chinese fentanyl across our southern border.

         Except there is zero chance that spending billion on the border would actually solve the fentanyl problem which is driven by demand from Americans. OTOH, failing to support Ukraine would give a green light to China on its Taiwan invasion plans which would have a huge impact on the US economy.

         But lets be honest: it is not about the money which is tiny compared to the US budget. My guess you are a person that dislikes democracy and loves authoritarian dictators like Putin and wants to see him succeed.

   2. The US position in the world? You mean a country who’s done more to destabilize other countries, murder civilians by the job lot, exercise imperial hegemony over unwilling nations, start wars than any other country in history? That US? It can go f*ck itself. The war in Ukraine is entirely the US fault. The sooner the evil empire collapses and stops trying to run the world, the better. Because the US can’t even run itself.

   3. Xi doesn’t believe anything of the sort.

      There is a good reason why Japan’s Kishida and South Korea’s Yoon are being chummy. It certainly isn’t because China is under wraps.

      1. He didn’t say that China is under wraps just that Xi will be less bold. Further, there’s more to the CCCP than Xi. There must be Chinese generals who watched as American called out Russia’s moves perfectly back in February. Eyebrows must have been raised. Second thoughts had.

5. Zelenskii is nothing but a bought n Paid for SHAKE down Artist.
   SCREW this 2 bit WEF puppet…and all the Deep State Filth throughout the WEST that Financially supports this “war”.

   Tis all to keep Ukraine as it always was: The Wests Slush Fund Country and one where the curtain can be drawn so as to facilitate the real “Globalist work” being carried out by “their” collective wishes: Bio Weapons labs, Child sex trafficking, Illegal weapons trafficking, laundering Cartel Drug Trillions (recall if you will, that Deutsche Bank was busted by none other than Reiner Fuellmich for that very charge…and who OWNS Deutsche Bank..?? I’m betting the Rothschilds et all)

   The language this 2 bit Comic turned Huckster actually sounds like Klaus Schwab himself no.??- Full on Teutonic – NAZI.

   Given the UNIVERSAL Support of every country whose Politicians are literally owned by the WEF: USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Germany, Netherlands, France etc….his arrogant demeanor in demanding Billions, perfectly frames that WEF NAZI style mentality.

   We OWE him dontcha know…??

   1. Imagine being stupid enough to believe any of this.

6. Vichy Tucker, ala Russia

7. LOL.
   Look at all the butthurt WEF puppets, whining that people like Ezra Levant, Tucker, Tulsi, Sundance, the good people at LifeSiteNews, Nigel Farage, etc, are all Kremlin stooges.
   Much like Trump outed the fake Republicans, the war in the Ukraine is outing the fake conservatives.

8. HiHo

   Yep, the fake Conservatives..aka NEOCONS.
   A group of fully invested (Military Industrial Complex), whose sole raison d’etre is to ensure there is WAR, somewhere on the planet..
   ….ALL THE TIME

   Their preferred place of shady business.? The Ukraine.

   Tim G, UnMe, Colon… you 3 are the useful Idiots here pretending otherwise.

   Since 1945, when has the USA had a sustained period where none of its military were involved in some conflict around the globe..hmm..??
