Random Thoughts

I'm not really following the war, but I'm still getting the impression that Russia is fighting more than just Ukraine. Like US and NATO funneling through Ukraine and using it as some sort of smokescreen. This could be a very dangerous situation. They really do need to end this war.

I think the current state of affairs was an inevitable congealing of antagonists.  NATO is distinctly a creature of "war" and all its' actions are geared towards "war."  The diplomatic and political shenanigans were always bound to be overt... What we casually call "Russia" has always been territorial.  Clash guaranteed.  The truth is this 'war' is a marketing construct, misrepresented from the onset.  It is as regional in nature as the Israel/Palestine war.  I only grieve for the innocents, rendered grist for someone else's mill.  As for the others... this is the game they insist on playing (it's ironic that "they" never actually "pay.")

Russia (those forced to fight) are fighting anyone who can muster 'virtue' from the show, not moral virtue... but instead 'political' virtue... a far less "virtuous" virtue (if at all.)

People shouldn't have to be bombed to signal virtue... I think the mill is broken.
