Listen to a reading of this article (reading by Tim Foley): War is the single worst thing humans do. The most insane. The most cruel. The most destructive. The most traumatic. The least sustainable. Those who knowingly choose to steer humanity into more war when it could be avoided are the worst people in the world, without exception.

This got posted yesterday and I couldn’t make it past the first paragraph. It’s worse than a high school essay
I would suggest you first explore the subject of the US imperialist status, sattelite states, number of military bases in every part of the world, endless manipulations of other countries internal politics including election engineering, support of brutal regimes.
then I would suggest you approach the subject of national security in general. what if means for a state to defend its security concerns to perseived threats.
then search for US diplomats explicitly warning in public statements that NATO expansion will certainly lead to conflict.
next is to confront the idea that it is not about saving Ukrainian democracy, that would a joke, but about weakening Russia and if possible to dismantle it as a federation altogether in order to encircle China.
and then wait to see how this ends…

A month ago when I left that comment I was talking about the way it’s written, not the subject matter
That looks like the beginning of a high school essay with a minimum word count
Sincerely, G.
well, high school essays often capture reality in more profound and direct way.
I regard this beginning as a truly an immensely powerful reminder of the true status of war.
an analogy would be to say that the worst crime a human can make is to take the life of another human.

One of the absolute stupidest articles I have ever read that can be summarized as simply as:
please refer to my response to a similar comment, just before yours.

what if, Russia requested Mexico and Canada to join its military alliance, assume an alliance sustained 50+ years with two dozen members?
how would the US respond?
is that an insane approach or comical?

hi,
I don’t follow regularly my social media accounts, due to busy daily schedule.
and thanks for the response obviously I am here for dialogue, so I will reply even after some time.
anyways, i made the point I consider is a crucial factor in the escalation and ultimate invasion.
you responded that the US being so successful has managed to encircle Russia and that this does not have any significance on how Russia shall respond. actually that it should not respond.
I such cases I believe it is not so clear which side is the aggressor and which is the defender. my opinion.
finally, I just came across this speak at the UN Security Council by Jeffrey Sachs, in which he address the route causes of all 4 ongoing wars. Russia Ukraine, Israel Palestine, Syria and shahel.
