But if you self-identify as "strong," then you can't be weak. That would be oppressive.

So now we're in planting season on the farms.  To grow food, they need fertilizer.  To get fertilizer, they have to buy it from Russia which produces over 2/3 of the fertilizer on the planet and our governments are all forbidding people to buy from Russia.  That's going to be a problem.  It'll cost more to produce food, not counting the higher gas prices to use a tractor and a plow, not counting the extra expense of transporting the crops to factories and then to the store.

The liberal dream continues.

□ [“China to open space station to commercial activity"]

Well, they haven't minded the slavery, maybe this will be enough to anger leftists against China?  Oh who am I kidding, they don't care in the slightest.  They're too busy talking about their hatred of slavery and commercial activity to do anything about China.

Of course all they need to do is send out orders to Biden and every other leader to knock it off and they'll obey.  Who's going to stop them?

Israel Intervenes in Ukraine/Russia Conflict – Suggests Ukraine Take Putin’s Offer – Zelensky Declines
March 12, 2022

One interesting comment I've found on the Russia/Ukraine situation is a quote from the only part of Sun Tzu's Art of War that I've ever made it through.  I've owned a copy probably over half my life now but have never been able to read it all.  Just not for me.  Anyway...

“Appear weak when you are strong, and strong when you are weak.”
 - Sun Tzu, The Art of War

Who does that fit based on the media foisted on us every day for the last couple weeks?  Russia's not doing so well, they appear weak.  Ukraine is a smaller, country but they're strongly smashing the attackers.

If Sun Tzu isn't mandatory reading in every military officer's training school ['students, turn to chapter four, who wants to read first?'] it's gotta be close to mandatory ['well you don't have to read it but you'll find it hard to get more than a D+ against the other students'].  I've sure seen officers reading it.  Russia certainly wouldn't ignore it.  Ukraine probably didn't either.  That only leaves... western media.  [And all the rest of us because we have better things to do.]  They sure like playing footage of Ukrainian victory but never include Russian victory of which there is certainly some.

So they're as much the target as Ukraine is but they don't know when to appear weak or strong.

"He who exercises no forethought but makes light of his opponents is sure to be captured by them."
 – Sun Tzu

□ [“The Atlantic Wants Us to Know that Climate Change Would Be Severely Impacted if There was a Nuclear War"]

Maybe so but there'll be a lot of dead humans, so there's an up-side too, right?  Also the economy will be destroyed, that's a plus.

Anyway, you can just say you did the opposite of whatever Trump did and he didn't get into a nuclear war so you're excused.  Who's going to disagree with you on that?

□ [“Iran’s Revolutionary Guard Takes Credit for the Rocket Attack on US Base in Erbil, Iraq — 10 Days After Iran Asked Biden to Remove them from Terror List"]

Well, they've gotta get through Iraq, Jordon and Syria to hit Israel so this makes sense.  The RG does specify this is an Israeli base, or at least supported by Israel, the real enemy.

Joe Biden turned 18 just a few weeks after JFK was elected.  Kennedy immediately started sending troops to Vietnam, LBJ followed along.  Biden was in his prime military years throughout that era but he was fine with the draft and supported the war until Nixon was in charge of.  A Republican, oh no!!!

And now he's going to do the same thing and Democrats totally support him.

They just projecting their own desires onto other people, they're going to send men with guns after whoever thinks they stole the election when they spent four years freely pretending that Trump stole the election (and GWB before that.)  But Trump was the tyrant.
