You've been watching too much CNN if you believe Trump supporters are Nazi wannabees. Look in the mirror at your elected leader. Wow. "Dismiss anything else. We will continue to be your single source of truth." Jacinda Ardern I know you like to stir the pot, but that was like taking a turd in the pot.. "Aotearoa-Zimbabwe" - hmm. Meaning becoming clearer. Trump blasted the Wagner group after a couple of warnings to Putin. Message received, peace and harmony and respect afterward. Biden can probably expect the same. Let's hope Ned Price's film crew knows they are likely going to be payback. The problem we have is that Biden never learns, unless you can see mandatory drug offense sentencing going to active drug use enabling as "learning".

Hold a referendum in the disputed eastern parts of Ukraine and have the local yokels in each bit vote for independence or being part of Russia or Ukraine. And while at it, they should ask the Ukrainians whether they would be willing to risk a potentially uncontrollable war for the privilege of - maybe - getting admitted some day to the nato. I think it would be fair, Ukraine being a democracy and all that. War sucks. And after all the brutalities are in the past, it takes many generations until the psychological damage begins to subside. And we aren’t even talking about nuclear wars. Speaking of which… I read some analyses suggesting that Russia would lose a conventional war. That’s a scary thought, because they wouldn’t fight any war that they couldn’t expect to win. Which means they could be quick to escalate if needed - maybe not go directly to MAD, but use smaller, “tactical” weapons. That would open a very dangerous path. When Stalin and Hitler concluded their “peace treaty” - along the way, absorbing all the lands separating them - it was obvious that the next step would be war. By the time the two powers were separated by a thin line, the only question was which side would “surprise” - and attack first. Germany must have had better intelligence - and its attack was devastating, destroying most of the Soviet warplanes still on the ground. Ukraine needs to become - and remain - neutral. With NATO forces facing Moscow from the southeast, both sides would be so nervous that something would be bound to go wrong.

i was in dublin in 2010 and hardly saw an irish person. i even went into irish pubs only to be waited on by people from south america or eastern europe. we visited trinity college. our leader there for trinity was from Albany ny getting a masters.. On the trolly out to Guinness beer factory which was like going to disney we talked with another student from Arcadia ca. going for his doctor degree in medicine. Maybe you were in a large that has an area no one should be in to entertain your irish fights in the street. come over here and i will send to parts of philly or chicago for your street fights.
