The war that never was--Argentina and Chile

My heart breaks for my country
We’ve recently seen but few have read the Durham Report which is 380 pages of crimes at the highest level of government, especially of an agency that will call parents at school board meetings “domestic terrorists” but won’t police its own criminal bureaucracy. No one will be charged for these crimes even though some ineffective, powerless protesters from two years ago are still without trial. The very criminals listed in this report are still seeking more citizens to charge for January 6 for even being near the Capitol. Other rioters and looters from the summer of 2020 have never been charged or have received light sentences.
Also this week we heard testimony of three
whistleblowers from the FBI. The agency
which is supposed to protect their rights, and our rights to disagree with the
government—the FBI--refuses to recognize they are whistleblowers! Their damning testimony seriously calls into
question the events of January 6, 2021. And therefore, some members of the
Congressional committee sneered and ridiculed their stories of abuse, loss of
jobs and income.
We are embroiled in a horribly expensive (in both blood
and treasure) proxy war in Europe between two Christian nations, while at the
same time ignoring the debt ceiling reality. More billions approved today. No one in our government is even suggesting
brokering a peace. Thousands of people
are dying and we stand at the brink of nuclear war—no one in the world will
survive that. Not even the people who
are making billions from such a war. Meanwhile, we ignore two other major wars
among Christians because they are in Africa.
Black lives do not matter.
We no longer have borders. And without borders there is no country. 6.5 million people—including Venezuelans,
Cubans, Haitians, Africans, Chinese, Afghanis--have entered our country illegally
in the last two years under the present administration. They join all those who came before them and
are now protected by a patchwork of
Executive Orders. These are not legal
immigrants, and few are refugees. The
years of promising “The American dream” in story, poetry and song to our own
citizens is a joke. Much of the mischief is caused by NGOs, paid for by our donations
to our churches and grants from our government with our taxes.
Coming across the border financed by the drug
cartels and NGOs is a huge drug enterprise. The sex trafficking of women and
children is also very lucrative. This is killing our own children and the
children of other nations.
Special interest money is choking off the spirit and
promise of the United States. No one can
or even wants to stop George Soros who has put 70 prosecutors in powerful big
city offices which have politicized the
criminal justice system. The criminals
they put back on the streets are allowed to terrorize minority communities.
Our U.S. oligarchs like Bezos, Gates and Zuckerberg are
steam rollers at election time allowing our Bill of Rights to be mangled and
rendering our own votes useless. Twitter was allowed via the mob violence of
its “members” (and bots) to destroy all
manner of civil rights and protections.
No one stops them; they are the worst crony capitalists in our history
and make the Ukrainian, Russian and Chinese oligarchs look like beginners.
Children are being maimed by “top and bottom surgery”
and made infertile with cross sex hormones and genital surgery in tax supported
“gender affirming” medical clinics all over the country—one at Ohio State just
a few miles from my home. Transgenderism
has become the new civil rights movement of the current party in power as
mentally confused children are told from an early age from their libraries to
their school classrooms to the locker rooms of the sports teams that biological
sex is not real. We have Supreme Court Justices who cannot define a woman
because sex has become a political tool instead of God’s way of procreation.
The pandemic lockdown threat is not over. All the societal protections bowed to a
powerful bureaucracy which gave authority over our lives to local and state
public health agencies with unelected, barely educated staffers. That power can
be reinstated at any threat because we gave up freedom for safety. All lessons from the past about health, quarantines,
masks, mental and physical health were tossed overboard. It was lust for power, not concerns for
safety or life. Our church boards, pastors, priests, synods and fellowships
just closed down and accepted money they didn’t need to use as they wished—but it
was all “legal” when I questioned my church.
Legal but not moral. Some churches which did stand up to this injustice
are still having battles in court.
Our independent media are a joke. The misinformation
and disinformation are coming from the very agencies that warn us about the
problem. In foreign countries journalists can be jailed; at home they are
fired, cancelled or reassigned.
Churches and pregnancy clinics are terrorized and
vandalized and the FBI looks away or arrests people praying at clinics. We are
expected to follow some unstated law about pronouns.
Whether you call it gaslighting, dystopian, or just
crazy, we Americans are in a very bad, bad place. We are not just denying God,
we’re denying biological evolution, all the achievements of Western
civilization, the beauty of nature, and ordinary common sense.

Ukraine, Russia and WW3
I have no way to prove this hunch, but I don't think we'd be in this danger if Trump were still president (although he won't be able to stop it if he were reelected). Obama made the first fumble in 2014 with Crimea; Putin pulled back when we had a strong man in DC after the 2016 election. But when Biden showed his dimness and bumbling in August 2021, Putin took advantage. Ukraine's corruption and Biden's crime family had shown their relationship and Trump was on to that (for which he was impeached).
Goodness, what a mess.

Will we protect Finland's border and not our own?
Moscow has already indicated that, should Sweden and Finland join NATO, Russia will introduce new nuclear weapons into the Baltic region.
Why is it wise for us to formally agree, in perpetuity, as NATO is a permanent alliance, to go to war with Russia, for Finland?
Given the war in Ukraine and concomitant crisis in Eastern Europe, it is understandable why Stockholm and Helsinki would seek greater security beneath the U.S. nuclear umbrella."
