Newsweek ran this strange article that says Putin is now going to "Nuke the World" according to Newsweek Magazine online. Do think he is serious? I just heard Democrat friends in the Middle East who are oil-rich are not taking Biden's phone calls that would just be pleas for foreign oil and gas, while he can destroy America. Gee. We'll be so miserable, Biden's crapshoot is to pay foreigners for oil and starve America's oil business. I don't get it. Do you?
Putin Threatens to Nuke the World | Opinion
If it was Kim Jong-un in North Korea making the claim and had the nukes, I would believe it. Anyone that puts offending relatives in front of a cannon and blows them to pieces, isn't dealing with a full deck. Putin on the other hand, is just using hyperbole in the hopes of getting the west to back off of his military campaign.
I don't know, Lucky Duck. Putin's missile fire has already hit three different nuclear power plants in the Ukraine. He's already flirted with nuking a neighbor. Two million of them have already been accepted in Poland for finding farms and homes someplace else. Long live Poland, and bless the family and man I met in 2006 who explained how workers in Poland had been treated by Russia. He turned treatment of workers around with his "solidarity." I heard him speak in Polish, and line by line, an interpreter told an Alumni association members and those from the American Historical Society in our language what he said. He created a better life for the workers in Poland by hustling his country's mean handlers into a corner, and he basically taught the world a lesson about having the courage of one's convictions tends to win over insane abusers. I don't know why he picked me, but after the speech was over, he told me of his family and his determination to make life better for his children, and unlike his speech in Polish, he told me in English, my native language. I am forever enchanted by those who put other people first. In his battle with overlords, he was putting the Polish nation first because of all that had been required of them who were no strangers to hard work for almost nothing an hour.
What was pleasing to hear and well-understood by fiber artist and seamstress me, was the Polish way that Lech Walesca spoke to me--they are putting the crisis of the Ukrainian people first by offering them shelter and acquainting them with opportunities of hope, Just like their former President, Lech Walesca taught them to put others in crisis first.
God bless Poland, their history of doing right to the common man, and Lech Walesca's dear family including him. A good leader teaches his people lovingkindness to those who are down and out until they have a better world by leaders who truly, truly care about others whom they put first. Did it teach his oppressors a lesson?
We will know if Russia ends its leadership that bombs a 20-foot hole where a maternity hospital used to be but is now a windowless edifice around that hole. Last night's footage showed a pregnant woman on a rolling table with half her baby trying to get out of the hole shrapnel left of its mother's belly. Russia must act to stop the madness of a war created by a fantasy of a madman controlling Europe because he got rid of the Ukraine first because he put them last, but their hidden nuke intelligence first. And that's what I think of this rotten apple of a war.
