Look at the elephant in the room. Would we risk large scale nuclear war to save the rape of a country with 44 million people? That's the question we are all dancing around. It's time to look deep inside ourselves and make peace with what we truly believe. Would you give your life for a Ukrainian you don't even know, by supporting a no fly zone, or sending well equipped NATO youth (yeah, most of the soldiers are under 30 years old) to fight in WWIII or a nuclear armageddon? That's what keeps me up at night.
Thanks. It was one of my darker moments. Maybe best not to have posted it. I think the intent of this forum is not so much deep philosophy and more present moment awareness. I'll try to keep a muzzle on. LOL
Did I say he was actually conquering anyone? NO. I said it would raise his resolve to conquer. He is not conquering but he is murdering civilians wholesale. He is destroying the infrastructure of a country. Giving Putin rhetorical fuel is like someone banging on a hornet's nestwith a stick then, running away to stand and watcheveryone else get stung from afar.
I'm tired. I don't have the will to argue with you about how you parse my comments unless you actually read and understand the context.
Erin. I've been on this page a good long time, since the beginning. If you don't want someone to respond to your comment and question your interpretation, likewise, keep mum. I was snippy, but I was civil to you. And, in fact, if you look at past posts this week I was one of the few who advocated strongly for civil discourse. It seems you have not read my prior posts or choose to ignore them. BTW you, too, are sitting on a mighty high horse this morning. Have a nice day.

Lisa, I am copying my reply to someone else because it applies here:
I do agree 100%. I only fear that his passion raised Putin's resolve to conquer several notches.

I don't think he needs fuel from anything else to ratchet up his actions
He's at a high level now. If only more of his people would protest. He would listen to that.
тАЬThis isnтАЩt the place for you?тАЭ
Even if you were an appointed, LFAA moderator, your own tone/words/questioning would be wildly condescending, undeserved, and inappropriate.
No need for such, especially with this communityтАЩs most seasoned, invested, democratically action-oriented people like our dear Daria.
Thanks, Ashley. I appreciate your kind words. ЁЯМ╖
