[little2add]

Here is a interesting little tidbit, that I just learned.

Ukraine’s President (Volodymyr Zelensky), Is Jewish. So Is Its Prime Minister.

A poll recently shpwed that about 67% of republicans would stamd up and defend the USA if attacked, and barely 50% of democrats wpuld dp the same.

Hmmmmm...  looking at Ukraine that stat makes you wonder.

For my part, and I've said this before, a nation such as Canada that elects a globalist like Trudeau, is simply not worth defending.  At this point i would consider pure anarchy as an improvement over where Canada os heading now.

Over three million people have fled there homes.

 

I was talking with a co-worker who is a Polish immigrant,  He told me he had close relatives in Ukraine and that they are doing okay with this dire situation.

 He also said he talks with them almost every day because they all have cell phones over there.  

It’s good to have family, thank God the cell phones still work.

 

Humanitarian goods and services are whats needed, not bombs and Missiles.  The U.S. has pledged over 17 billion dollars for advanced  weaponry, i fear this escalation will compound the mayhem.

Warsaw needs humanitarian assistance.  NOW!

WARSAW, Poland -- Warsaw's mayor is appealing for international help as the city becomes overwhelmed by refugees, with more than a tenth of all those fleeing the war in Ukraine arriving in the Polish capital.

The Biden administration is asking Congress for a massive new $33 billion funding request to bolster Ukraine’s military.

As crazy as things have gotten of late, I wanted to review this thread again.  

It seems Russia is not the only bad guy in this game.
