Last week I heard the story about helicopters from Ukraine bombed a fuel supply depot inside of Russia. It sounded to me that “we” were supposed to be outraged, or something. I think if some had been outraged, the rest of us would be. Russia has totally annihilated whole cities. I’m not sure why a couple of helicopters bombing a fuel depot was a story, unless it was meant to “rally the anti-Russia sentiment.

War is hell and should be avoided at all costs. Russia has been bombing for over a month. Yes, there are civilians being killed. Children are being scarred for life. Isn’t that what you do when you take up arms against others. The Allies did it in WW2, and more likely WW1. Why is everyone so shocked?

I feel bad for both sides. The Ukraine people were not threatening Russia. And, the Russian people have Putin, the Russians are dying in large numbers also. Only one group wins in a war, such as this; the companies that are suppling the weapons, mostly U.S. companies. Just like COVID before, follow the money.
