"This is the weirdest era in human history. By far. Nothing else even comes close. Billionaires trying to kill everyone. Civil society unable to form a coherent thought. Institutions lie in smoldering ruins. Poisons handed out like candy. We are Neanderthals with iPhones."
- Dr. Toby Rogers
Did it warm your heart to see all those blue and yellow Ukrainian flags waved by our elected officials in Congress Saturday night with the passage of the $60-plus-billion aid bill to the Palookaville of Europe?
You realize, don't you, that the tiny fraction of that hypothetical "money" - from our country's empty treasury - that ever reaches Ukraine will rebound on the instant into Mr. Zelensky's Cayman Islands bank account.
The rest of the dough enters the recursive shell-game between US weapons-makers and the very hometown folks in Congress waving those blue and yellow flags, who will receive great greasy gobs of fresh "campaign donations" from the grateful bomb and missile producers.
No wonder they're cheering.
What the $60-plus-billion won't do is provide any fresh arms and equipment to Ukraine's sad-sack army soon enough to prevent Russia from bringing this cruel, stupid, and unnecessary war, which we started, to a close. Yes, we started it, not Russia, in 2014 with our Intel blob overthrowing elected President Viktor Yanukovych in the so-called "Maidan Revolution of Dignity" (what Wikipedia calls it). And for what reason? To jam Ukraine into NATO as a prelude to "weakening" Russia sufficient to bust it up and gain control over Russian oil, ores, and grain.
Yes, that was actually the neocon's game, equal parts megalomania and hubris, a fiasco as strategically ill-fated as Hitler's push to gain control of Russia's oil fields via Stalingrad in 1942-3. With failure and humiliation looming in Ukraine, the blob's objective for now, in theory, is the vain hope of prolonging the hostilities just long enough to get its hologram president, "Joe Biden" re-elected, so that said blob can continue its amoebic digestion of what's left uneaten by it in our sore-beset republic. You've got to wonder, of course, what this blob thinks will remain to rule over when it's done gobbling up everything and jailing everyone from sea to shining sea who objects.
