Putin looks like he’s going to lose this war…

Well… I have been trying to avoid commenting on the point that Putin is going to lose in Ukraine as there are still untold war crimes he and his troops are committing there by targeting civilians and continuing to kill thousands of them…and it seems to be disrespectful to sit here on my soft warm couch and opine while Ukrainians are fighting for their lives…but, it does appear that with the latest round of support for the Ukrainians from across the globe, the tide is turning as they start concerted counterattacks on the Russian invaders. One of the things I find most stunning is that the Russian military, once thought to be one of the best in the world appears to be a hollowed out shell of itself…incapable of the things that normal armies do as a matter of course…I mean they are even using cell phones and commercial walkie talkies to try to talk to each other and even those aren’t working to coordinate attacks like a normal army does….and it is clear they can’t supply the army with even the basics of food and water as the videos of Russian soldiers stealing chickens and looting grocery stores show….and this just supports what I proposed in an earlier post, that 2 squadrons of A-10 attack jets could defeat this whole Russian invasion all by themselves…and if a NATO army was brought to bear on the Russian forces with all the force that entails, it would take a day or less for Russia to be defeated and driven from Ukraine….one last thing to remember is that Putin is now going to be isolated in Russia and will never be able to leave there again or he will be arrested and taken to the Hague for trial on the war crimes his troop have committed…this is a far cry from the superpower that he postured Russia to be…and maybe this will be his end…we can only hope…

This is sick…

Well….what a sick piece of shit trump is…and so are all of the repubs who support him….buried in an article in the Murdoch owned Wall Street Journal today we now know why trump ordered the attack on Soleimani now…it was to help keep repubs onboard with acquitting him in the senate trial…in the same article it was reported that right wing hawk senators were were pressing him to attack Iran so of course the idiot trump is going to think about nothing but himself and do what they want…but, how damn sick is that? Murder someone just to keep repub senators from convicting and removing you from office? Over the past twenty years we have seen that repubs have absolutely no ethics or morals, but to press for murder in exchange for protection? This is a new low in this country where now murder is okay if it fits your political needs and there is only one party that would even consider this evil shit…and it sure as hell isn’t the dems….every damn one of them should be hauled to the Hague for war crimes….

I guess regular crimes are not enough….

Well…with it well proven that the idiot trump has committed many, many, many crimes throughout his lifetime culminating in his extortion and bribery of the president of Ukraine, I guess he’s getting tired of doing just regular old crimes and has now started to explore the possibility of committing war crimes in Iran. After his unlawful murder of the Iranian general, he tweeted up a storm about the attacks he will order if Iran retaliates at all…and those include murdering civilians and destroying Iranian cultural sites…but there is just one teensy tiny little problem with that…either of those attacks is considered a war crime by both US law and by treaties that the US has signed…but, that didn’t matter to ole GW so I guess trump feels he can get away with it, too. The only problem with that is if idiot boy travels outside the US after he is out of office since it is the duty of any country who is a signatory to the treaties to arrest and transport to the Hague for trial any war criminal who is on their soil…and the UK is one of those so no more trump golf there…did you ever wonder why neither Cheney or GW ever travel outside the country? That’s the reason…they committed war crimes by ordering the torture of prisoners and they will end up in a cell in the Hague if they do….this is the big problem that Obama created by not prosecuting GW and his cronies for the multiple felonies they committed when in office…now every repub crook thinks they are immune from any law since GW got away with it…

This is what happens when you don’t lock up criminals….

Well…I’m not sure if I’m looking forward to the presidential elections next year…it seems that the right is back to the same old crap with the same old people…tax cuts for the rich, gut everything else and grift as much money as you can. But, the worst part of the whole thing is the recycling of the criminals in foreign policy that were responsible for the debacle of the Iraq war, torture, and 2 trillion dollars in debt that we didn’t need to spend on an enemy that was faked from the start. These people are coming out of the woodwork for one reason and one reason only: the failure of the Obama administration to prosecute the clear lawbreaking that was done by Bush, Cheney and the rest of their administration that lied us into war and then tortured in violation of international law. By doing that, Obama broke the law, too, and the international conventions that don’t allow us to decide whether or not to prosecute those who torture or order torture…we are obligated to do so by treaty. Do you ever wonder why ole GW Bush and Cheney never leave the country? They would be arrested and sent to the Hague for war crimes trials just as other despots and criminals have been. This is what happens when you don’t lock up criminals…like cockroaches, they come crawling out from under their rocks and, since they were never charged with war crimes,  spew their warmongering crap again and again….there is no statute of limitations on war crimes…let’s hope the next president has the guts to do what’s right….geez…
