Latest S2 Update on Ukraine

[Ninurta]

ETA: Found a great background video for the situation in Ukraine. Guess what? It's about (mostly) oil and natural gas! Who saw that coming?




In hopes no one shoots their television because the talking heads are so full of it. 

Here is some sound updates on the situation... or at least as updated as you are going to find. Not too many big-mouthed politicians or news anchors in the combat zone trying to get a bead on things. Imagine that. 

I wouldn't actually shoot the TV, because the noise might wake Grace up, but I have been, upon occasion, known to throw a combat boot at troublesome technology, which would likely not be beneficial to the television.

Now reports like the first (second?) one are straight news, which is what we are NOT getting from the MSM and it's talking heads, including Fox. Fox has recently grown so many talking heads that are rooting for war that I've taken to watching 60 year old sitcoms rather than the "news".

I detect a faint note of sarcasm in the second third?) video, but again he is reporting, rather than cheer-leading to get a war on, so I'm good with it.

I live in constant fear now that folks will assume I am anti-war, and therefore some kind of hippie, because pf the stance I've taken. I'm sure the long hair and beard are not helping, but it is what it is, and I will remain what I remain. I'm not anti-war, I'm just against sending other people's kids to die in a war they've got no business meddling in while Rome burns down at home and no one pays any attention to it. And the same folks who send those kids out to die in other folks wars are making bank off selling weapons to both sides. Yeah, that kinda gets under my skin.

So go ahead and peddle weapons to the Ukraine. Let Ukrainians defend their own turf, and just shovel weapons at them until the banks run dry... but don't agitate for the US to take a hawkish stance in affairs that are none of our concern.

Some times, you've got to fight, and when you do, you fight hard and fight to win or die. This situation ain't one of those times for the US. While indeed it IS a life or death fight for the Ukraine, death is the only option available to the US, especially with that pussified lunatic BidenHarris at the steering wheel. His mouth has a bad habit of writing checks his ass can't cash. When that bluff gets called, shit gets real.
