Here we go again

Here we go again

This time around it appears the appeasers are going to get a lot of people killed in their appeasement way of thinking.

The time for talking has passed, in my humble opinion.

Just wondering did anybody get a chance to vote on this subject? I don’t think so.

Now in my simple mind, diplomacy is a good course of action to take. But it must be backed up by the “big stick” idea for it to work, like the threat of force. That seems to be lacking these days, so if it comes to war, we in the west will be militarily weak initially. So be it. That is just happening right now.

Perhaps we will surrender in the end. I just don’t know. I personally don’t think that will happen. Rather we the people will take charge as best we can.

But if the dictator and megalomaniac in Russia has his way, then the Ukraine is just one step in his plans. Later come the Baltic Countries, like he can just take them over and then rule them.

And don’t forget the South China Sea frictions, too.

And in the meantime, we in the USA are disarming. What a waste when it is time to pay the piper. The payment will be in blood and extra money, too; like a lot of our children’s blood and our money.

Maybe when it becomes more apparent, and our then USA federal government politicians reinstitute a military draft of our sons and our daughters, then maybe our people will rise up and revolt in one way or the other. In the meantime, a lot of people are going to die in all probability.

This time around, while we may end up fighting, I suspect the outcome will be a lot different, like we the people are still in charge.

Clausewitz had a good point in the early 1800’s when he said something like “war is an extension of politics by another means”.
