Land Mines, Cluster Bombs, and a Partridge in a Pear Tree. All I Want For Christmas is No World War III

Insanity, a sage once said,  "is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different result."

Under that definition, President Biden's Ukraine war strategy is insane. This war has dragged on for almost three years, and the carnage only intensifies.

 Ukrainian president Zelensky periodically asks Biden for more sophisticated weapons; Biden hesitates briefly and then gives Zelensky whatever the little guy wants.

Biden has become a short-order cook for the Ukrainians. Abrams tanks, F-16s, cluster bombs, long-range missiles, and land mines: "Coming right up!"

Biden apparently believes that Russian casualties will eventually force Russian President Vladimir Putin to sue for peace. Indeed, the pile of dead and wounded grows bigger by the day. 

Nevertheless, American weapons and technology haven't hastened an end to the war. In fact, the scope of the war is expanding. North Korean troops are fighting alongside the Russians in the Kursk region. China buys Russian oil to finance Putin's war and may have committed acts of sabotage on behalf of Russia in the Baltic Sea. Iran supplies Russia with drones. 

America and Great Britain have given Zelensky everything he asks for, including permission to fire US and British-made long-range missiles into Russia. President Biden will soon be sending ant-personnel mines to the Zelensky regime--an additional escalation.

In short, the US and its allies are doing the same thing over and over by supplying Ukraine with evermore lethal weaponry, and they keep getting the same result--an increasingly aggressive Russian assault. 

Jamie Dimon, Chase CEO, is correct: World War III has already started. President Trump has promised to bring the Ukraine war to a swift conclusion. Let's hope and pray that Biden doesn't drag our nation into a global nuclear conflict before Trump is sworn into office.

Are we nuts? Ukraine invades Russia

When the good guys invade a country, it’s called an incursion. When the bad guys invade a country, it’s called an invasion. Thus, when the United States invaded Cambodia in 1970, the press described the event as an incursion.

When the good guys sponsor an independence election, it’s an exercise of democracy. When the bad guys sponsor an independence election, it’s called an illegal annexation and a violation of international law.

Over the years, the United States has supported free elections worldwide to further democracy. Nevertheless, when the people of Crimea voted to join Russia and the people of the Donbas region did likewise, the Western press described these expressions of democracy as fraudulent violations of international law.

Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022. Now, Ukraine has invaded Russia. According to the American sycophant press, Ukraine’s action is an incursion, not an invasion. Nothing to see here folks; please move along.

Ukraine has sunk about a third of Russia’s Black Sea fleet, and now it has pushed Ukrainian troops into the Kursk region of Russia. Ukraine could not have done those things without American approval and logistics support. It would not be unfair to say that the United States has attacked Russia by destroying the Russian navy and invading Russian soil. Indeed, Vladimir Putin sees it that way, and Putin has nuclear weapons.

How smart are the Americans who have managed the Ukraine war? Let’s face it. Joe Biden is not the sharpest knife in the drawer, and Kamala Harris is no brighter.

Americans are not giving much thought to the war in Ukraine. The mainline press is obsessed with the November election, and the Labor Day holiday is approaching. We aren't concerned with events in Ukraine, where war has produced a million casualties.

Putin has warned us that an escalation of the war in Ukraine could force Russia to use tactical nuclear weapons. I believe him. Biden, Congress, and the New York Times apparently believe that Putin is just blowing smoke.

If nuclear war breaks out because of our stupid meddling in Eastern Europe, I will be in Mississippi catching catfish on the Buffalo River. The residents of New York, Boston, and Washington, DC, will be the people at risk. 

And when the apocalypse descends on America, the coastal elites will suddenly discover the charms of Flyover Country. They will be welcome to shelter in the rural South so long as they leave their arrogant and self-centered politics behind.
