Re <<The dimwitted ... ant's nut sack>>

Lyric Don't Pay The Ferryman lyric

(1) ... arguably controversial take on state of is, but undoubtedly mirthful expression of controversial view.

... but yes, given there is or ought to be a long list of issues at higher ranking of priority, unless one tees up moral / philosophical / and possibly practical stop-aggression-now-when-earlier-better / no-appeasement slogans entailed in the Ukraine narrative(s), it is difficult to see how Ukraine ruled by Zelensky matters more to Team USA than, say, China Taiwan under Tsai, just for example

Wheat vs chips, chips win

But, and a however, neon gas also important, because it feeds into chips, albeit alternate sources are more plentiful, given that TSMC grip on chips is tighter, than Russian hold on palladium

All very complicated.

(2) ... however, and a big however, the 'other side' might intone, that given the security guarantees Team USA / Nato gave to the Ukraines when convincing them to nuclear disarm way back when, the issue then becomes are any and all guaranties by USA / Nato any-good-at-all the minute after they are made?

Such is the burden of empires per implicit admonition of the founding fathers.

IOW, constitution issue arises.

The USA Constitution, as both expression of intent and guidance on behaviour, is actually a very good document. The degradation came in successive waves as generations replaced generations.

(3) Wonder what happens should any presidential candidate cut through the chase and actually ran on Reset to Original Constitution State ticket? Answer, the United becomes Disunited or Un-United, a guess.

IOW, the software of the machine has been upgraded a few cycles too many that a hard-fork is more easily done than yet another upgrade. If so, issues arise, and issues that shall cost a whole lot of gold.

(4) Historically China had something akin to the Constitution, per "Mandate from Heaven" en.wikipedia.org



... and just as historically, the fix is the problem, only refreshed by hard-fork perhaps between 65 - 75 times, always worked out for the better, eventually, per tautological logic (note, there were recurring episodes of hardwired TeoTwawKi and inescapable Darkest-Interregnums.

Side notes, the ways to make it across from one regime to another protocol, and one schema to a different but same sovereign are few:

- Skip out, away, and opt-out by voting with feet
- Engage in change-process and not lose
- Gold, buried deep

Following up Message 33802835 and getting into it, the tune, it seems the louder the better, as loud as the speakers can take without distorting
Live
Music w/ lyric
The words are delicious, and best if listening whilst fondling a suitable coin. Rubbing two bits together is better, and if each bit is 1-troy ounce, best :0)
The Coconut for as long ago as when age ~7 had the two posters hung on her wall per her asking

The coconut is fluent in Greek mythology and tells museum guides what is when and where and how, and what statute is which god, goddess, or godette, and of what parentage as well as rumoured whatever(s) and goings-on's

She is also a champion as far as history goes per AP History testing, 5/5

Here is the 'original' 1931 Map that is clearly outdated davidrumsey.com

The Jack is interested in other aspects of history and as long as he is reading, fine, explore, by all means, on and off lines ... and yes, the Jack is fortunate to be second-born, a boy of father who is game :0)
In a hypothetical situation of conscription, he reckons he will learn to fly ... drones. I think he has got 'it' :0)

Carranza2 obviously you are a very confused person typical US citizen know nothing what is not next door.

Would suggest to read some more about the new Russian doctrine as outlined in so many article that you and the rest of US citizens ignored.

TJ is partially right in his response

To me it is obvious you know ZILCH about foreign police and emerging doctrine of totalitarian regimes.

I communicate with friends on both sides and know a think or two about living under dictatorship as I experienced on my own skin.

Some time is better to shut up as then no one will be aware of your lack of knowledge.

The whole issue is squarely on Obama's shoulders and then Trump gave the final push.

NG would have never reached the present lofty prices if Russia would have been kicked out of Crimea, Georgia and most important Syria.

Better learn some geography and it will help you to understand why Syria is so important strategically to supply of NG and crude oil to the rest of the world.

The passage of grans from Ukraine and Russia are trough Istanbul straights and the present situation will bring almost famine for most of North Africa countries - Egypt population 103 million is 80% dependent on imports of grains - lack of bread toppled the regime there as it did in Libya and unrest in Algiers.

Many other African countries depend on food supply for that region not to mention Western Europe as Ukraine is considered Europe bread basket.

I could go on and on to explain the consequences of the present Russian policy whit hints not only to conquer Ukraine the Baltic states but also Poland and split Germany - to gain total supremacy even over the "docile" Chinese people in the words of their president.
