Wishing Peace for all Nations

[Compressor]

During these troubling times, I'd like to take this opportunity to wish eternal peace to all nations especially given the current situation in Ukraine. This situation is very dangerous and can escalate rapidly to engulf wide regions of the world. Let's hope for peace and no further loss of life.

That all sounds great...... but bottom line in my opinion is that a bully is a bully and the only way to deal with a bully is to straight up deal with them and punch them square in the nose... If we don't deal with this now we will need to deal with it later...... so let's just get on with it.

Our biggest problem is that we do not have the noble culture of the men and women that prevailed in WW2. We now have an American culture of millennials who have no concept of what it really takes to deal with anything other than themselves. Millennials are great at setting up I Phones and networks....... but when it comes to saving a life, or starting a fire or actually paying for something...... they are useless!

My prayers go out to the people of Ukraine.

Assalam'Ulaikum.

Unfortunately, agree. Pay now or pay later, so to speak.

@Compressor. Thank you! Indeed, much more important than the things most of us are dealing with each day.

Stay hard, Ukraine.

We are still buying oil from Russia, right? What more can we possibly do?

Which is 100% on the shoulders of boomers for being god awful parents. You reap what you sow.

As a Boomer I must agree. We took the infrastructure and surplus handed to us by the "Greatest Generation " and ran it into the ground. We are the poster child of self indulgence.
