The Pope is wrong, confusing, and should be ignored. I am going to ignore him and stay Catholic, because I believe that is where Jesus Christ wants me and my family. But I go to churches with good priests and am a Third Order Carmelite, so the choice isn't as hard as it is for others. I think at some level the leaders in the West have become crazy and want to start WW3. So I am trying to prepare for some level of disruptions (black outs, terrorists attacks, false flags) because that is what we get served up by the Left. J6 was orchestrated, I witnessed 911 close up, with 2 of my kids down there, lost friends that day (and don't think we got the real story) no one knows who was behind the Las Vegas attack (or will ever be told), the elections are rigged (polite word for stolen), and then Time magazine brags about it afterwords). The real President is a shadow committee, with a fake demented, bribe-taking leader as the frontman, to be followed by a phony airhead (who cannot speak extemporaneously) who is a borderline former adulterous prostitute for Willie Brown by way of political training.

Am I discouraged? Let's say I don't like it. I think God is going to intervene. Life is a test (as I tell my children), so don't flunk the test. It may get very bumpy here so people should prepare reasonably for potential disruptions of supply lines.

Regarding Ukraine, I've seen nothing to change my view of the issue as this slow-motion disaster has unfolded and inexorably escalated over the last three years.

Yet there does come a point where the suicidal idiocy and insanity of the Regime's Ukraine obsession, which set the stage for a mindless proxy war with a nation armed to the teeth with nuclear weapons, leaves a person speechless. I'm almost at the point of speechlessness...but not quite.

Quick review of history: first the unnecessary and aggressive expansion eastward of NATO after our historic Cold War victory over the Soviet Union; more recently (2014), our support for the overthrow of the elected pro-Russian government of Ukraine and its replacement by a pro-American leadership. Brought to you by our apostles of "democracy."

Moscow's immediate response was to seize Crimea and de facto annex a narrow swath of eastern Ukraine. Then as Dem-Mediacrats in Washington moved to pull Ukraine deeper into NATO's orbit with serious talk of the country's membership in the alliance, the Russians, understandably viewing such a scenario as a critical threat to Russian national interests, made clear what anyone paying attention already knew: they would go to war, if necessary, to stop it.

So Moscow demanded a legal guarantee of Ukrainian neutrality and non-membership in NATO. Regime headquarters in Washington and its puppet sub-chapter in Kiev told the Russians to go screw themselves. Russian forces invaded not long after...and there has followed almost three years of a bloody, escalating conflict wherein the people and nation of Ukraine are being systematically sacrificed on the altar of the Regime's toxic ideology. The American government is financing this destruction to the tune of untold tens (hundreds?) of billions of taxpayer dollars.

Recently, the latest escalation saw the Ukie army cross the Russian border while using Western weapons to blow up Russian targets on Russian soil. The Ukies didn't get far before bogging down while in the larger picture, the Russians appear to be winning what has become a deadly war of attrition. The Russian aim is to hold the Ukie territory it currently occupies and complete its conquest of the Donetsk and Luhansk regions in eastern Ukraine. Again: none of this had to happen.

Now in desperation, Zelensky demands that the West supply more long-range missiles and authorize their use against long-range targets within Russia. Indications are that the Regime may well give their puppet what he wants. This prompted the Russian Foreign Minister to warn that Washington is "playing with fire." As Rod notes, Putin has since been more explicit on the subject, saying that any use of long-range Western missiles against Russia will be understood by Moscow as a direct attack by NATO and responded to accordingly.

But does this give the Regime and its media acolytes any pause? Hell no. They're like, oh yeah, we'll show you Rooskies who's boss.

The willful blindness and suicidal idiocy is biblical in scale. However, not surprising really. You have to understand that the Regime's ideology amounts to a death cult. Suicide is its logical end.

The Clueless Masses chew their cud like dimwitted cows in the field while their fearless leaders herd them toward an appointment with destiny. The historians who eventually emerge from the ruins will marvel at the sheer madness of all of this.

The Regime has risen in rebellion against God. Its ideology is evil. Its deeds are evil. But as I observed in a recent comment here, you can only get away with evil for so long before the karmic bill comes due.
