UN Security Council vote yesterday was an embarrassing charade with ominous portent for Gaza. https://youtube.com/watch?v=2uLiE1NsL1A Also yesterday, ‘Judging Freedom’ stalwart Matthew Hoh shed 10 minutes of lurid light on the madness in Ukraine, in testimony to the UNSC.
Biden claims “Putin will not stop after Ukraine”. HISTORY SHOWS OTHERWISE. In April 2022, he did stop — momentarily — when the Ukrainians agreed to remain neutral — momentarily. I add a crusty comment on Madeleine Albright by fmr French ambassador.
Oddly, Biden’s charge that Putin “will not stop at Ukraine” finds no support in this year’s “Intel Threat Assessment”. Remind Biden that exactly 2 years ago Putin DID STOP as Ukr negotiators agreed to neutrality. They now admit West torpedoed the agreement.
Starving Gaza, as deliberate as The Great Hunger in Ireland, is Biden’s legacy. The US Boat to Gaza in 2011. https://fpif.org/washington_okays_attack_on_unarmed_us_ship/
Recalling Israel’s bulldozing of 23 yr-old Rachel Corrie as she tried to prevent destruction of a Palestinian home in Rafa.
Even Andrea Mitchell can’t parse the incompatibility in US policy giving Israel weapons to bomb Palestinians, then caring for the “lucky” survivors dying of starvation. Sen Schumer’s criticism of Netanyahu? Russia-hating officials blind to Ukraine reality.
The 2024 Intelligence “Threat Assessment” is pitched at 5th-grade level. Ignores N Korea’s modern ICBM from Russia. Positives: includes section on MidEast! this yr; Iran STILL NOT developing nuke weapon and “had no foreknowledge of HAMAS attack on Israel.”

Would President Putin be willing to “stop in Ukraine”? THE PROOF IS IN THE PUDDING! In April 2022 Russian & Ukrainian negotiators struck a deal: Ukraine agrees to remain neutral; Russia “stops in Ukraine”. Quick, someone feed President Biden some pudding
I was a player 56 years ago when Pres. Johnson found Pentagon/CIA had lied thru their teeth on Vietnam. He nixed plans for a wider war and decided not to run again. Since Biden can’t grasp that he has been lied to on Ukraine, increased danger of wider war.
Nuclear war over Ukraine? JFK pointedly warned nuclear powers not to confront an adversary with “a choice of either humiliating retreat or nuclear war”. Biden faces that choice. Subtle hints in media that to avoid defeat US may opt for nukes, blame Russia.
