seduced and abandoned, a ruined Ukraine

The Tragedy of Ukraine: Seduced, Used, Abused, and Abandoned.

How the West Seduced, Used, Abused and Abandoned Ukraine The situation in Ukraine first came to my attention in late 2013. As I noted in previous posts, a website maintained by Andre Raefsky an ethnic Russian who grew up in the West, The Saker, noted social turmoil in Ukraine. Things went from bad to worse, with a recorded phone call surfacing of US State Department official, Victoria Nuland, caught planning whom she wanted to replace the democratically elected President Victor Yanukovych.

In the summer of 2022, I stayed at a Yoga Resort. It was run by Israelis on one of Thailand paradisical islands. People from many countries were there. It’s Vegan, so I guess that means that people there are more enlightened than non vegans. Anyway, one young Israel and I got into a bit of discussion. I maintained that we must know Truth.

Except that he doesn’t understand that ignorance leads to unreality, and Reality always bats last. So here …

A scene from one of many damned wars

From 1968 to 2024, It’s NOT the “Politics of Joy, It’s the Damned Wars!”

It’s the Damned Wars, that the Politicians Keep Paying for. Senator Lindsay Graham says the US should attack Iran’s energy resources. He forgets that Iran could block the flow of oil out of the Persia Gulf, sending the world economy into collapse.

We’ve got emotional children and that’s exactly what Lindsey Graham is he’s he’s a child he’s old enough to know better but certainly …. I guess wants to embrace ignorance as his mantle —-Larry Johnson, former CIA officer and intelligence …

War Is On Our Side

We’re Headed Like Lemmings Towards War The past couple of days, I’ve been in contact with two dear friends of mine, one going back 20 years, another goinng back over 50 years.

Too Often, Google Fails Badly as a Search Engine: It Omits Inconvenient Information

All Too Often, Google Fails Badly. Why? All too often, a search in Google fails badly because it omits inconvenient information, that’s why. And it’s why you must question everything. Let me explain. Since the coming of the ‘information messiah’, Google, the very notion of seeking information, or even ‘the Truth’, has become immortalized as the new verbal imperative, “Google it”. You’re told that if you want to know about something, just go to Google or Google Chrome, or even some of the other search engines built on Google, such as Duck Duck Go, or even Brave.
