Indeed,
The chaos in the world didn’t happen in a ‘vaccum’…
Meaning…
Everything effect, has a cause.
Although Putin’s ego war is one of the biggest unnecessary atrocities
currently killing over a million people…
The way he got his dreadful agenda were in some degree
influenced by how Russia was treated after they help ‘us’ win WWII.
Harry Truman couldn’t tame his ego and stomach being in a position
to work with Stalin that had recently exterminated over 4 million people,
some executed many starved to death.
But still…
Russia sacrificed millions of their solders to die for ‘our’ cause…
The ‘cold wars’ began…
Regarding Ukraine…
Putin could have been a huge hero.
He would have gone down in history as a very great man…
IF,
He would stated just before invaded:
“I could easily kick your ass!”
But,
Instead…
Here’s a billion buck, go have a party.
Next month,
We’ll get together to share ideas how our next 100 billion bucks can be spent
building bridges and infrastructure to make our two nations inseparable and at peace.”
But, noooooooooooo.
His ego is way to powerful for a mere idiot to tame.

In the Israel/Palestine conflict…
Part of the agenda was to have a democracy country created
with the lofty goal of stabilizing the Arab nations
that were not a democracy…
Human rights have not always been their shining glory.
So,
The ‘us’ and the ‘un’… have this challenge…
They have vowed to back Isreal against an overwhelming force
of the 22 surrounding Arab nations.
Perhaps it once could have been considered a noble act…
But,
After over 100 years of relentless attacks on Isreal…
They finally have had enough.
Sure,
After the unprovoked attack…
It was expected for a wee bit of a ‘response’…
I for one did not expect it to continue with such
disrespect for innocent civilians…
But,
When the combatants and the civilians are habituating inseparably…
We have a real shit show…
But,
THERE’S NO EXCUSE!
This could have been a good time to show the world how well their religion
has made them more compassionate…
They could have taken the higher ground…
But,
Shit man…
I don’t know how it feels to be persecuted on some level since
‘biblical’ times,
Nor,
The relentless attacks with a group that does not want to negotiate,
does not want peace…
They only want you dead.
There’s no middle ground.
They should have been doing more to spread peace and build a bridge of trust.
Now…
I can’t imagine anyone in that region will ever be able to humble their egos
and live in peace.
C’est la vie… such is life.
