You are 100% correct. There are so many things wrong right here- but we are supposed to focus on that most Americans probably never heard of until a month ago. Atrocities are occurring all over the world- including right here. I would prefer to see our resources used to fight fentanyl and human trafficking.

Over and over, I have asked war junkies: what's so terrible about a neutral Ukraine? Do you remember Bruno Kreisky, who was firmly non-aligned between the US and the USSR? When I was a young hothead, I thought he was a fink. Now I think he was brilliant. Ditto Finland - a neutral, prosperous country.

BTW, my grandparents were from what is now Ukraine. They called it Russia. Not taking sides. Just saying, George.

They want us to focus on what their enemies are doing, not their allies. It's the Saudis killing people in Yemen, so no big deal.

I don 't support Russia at all, but Zelensky is a bit of a problem and these people calling for full scale US intervention and no-fly zones don't realize what they are really asking for. It would mean WW3 and a lot more shortages and inflation that we have seen so far.

There was an attempted coup in Kazakhstan, Western media reported it as a protest but the "protesters" had automatic weapons and grenade launchers. My guess is was supported by NATO or the US, which would explain the bizarre and minimal coverage we got over here.
