Aqua: "Frivolous people who should know better calling for War against the Russians and Putin, no matter what the cost... As one of those who served in a War Zone, I detest those who take such a blasé attitude" & "Br. Bugnolo is wrong on... Ukraine" War
Constitutional lawyer Scott Lively says the above link is "the #1 best narrative-debunking analysis of the Russia/Ukraine conflict to date" which features Scott Ritter who was "a US intelligence officer, and then a UN weapons inspector. Scott correctly identified that Saddam Hussein did not have weapons of mass destruction, before the illegal US invasion of Iraq whose justification was based purely on this incorrect fabricated premise that Saddam did have weapons of mass destruction."

European Energy Prices Soar as Russia Seeks Rubles for Its ...
The following is written by a friend of The Catholic Monitor, Aqua, who is a frequent commenter in the Monitor:
Russia has huge natural resources. Western Europe and to some extent U.S. have limited natural resources.
Russia
is about to take the gloves off and hit us where it hurts: $ backed
global trade. They are going to price their products for sale in Rubles
only, backed by gold of which they have been hoarding for decades ... I
know because I am a gold-phile (they have been making many very good
decisions since the fall of the godless Soviet Union). When this
happens, we will know what "war by other means" ... means. We have no
idea what economic hardship means under conditions like this, not in our
lifetimes.
I have read so many careless, frivolous people who
should know better calling for war against the Russians and Putin, no
matter what the cost. They say this because they have lived their
entire lives in a world in which *OTHERS* fight their fights and we
*ALWAYS* win. We don't care whether the cause is just, because we are
lazy and never stop and ask hard questions about what purpose our
government is using our troops for and whether it is a just war, and a
winnable war, carefully considering all contingencies; tactical and
strategic considerations. "Pass the merlot, please. Beautiful night
for a date honey. God bless our troops fighting for our way of life,
right"?
As one of those who served in a war zone, I detest those
who take such a blasé attitude about war. We can lose a war, actually.
Given what we have done to our military, given who leads us, I can
confidently predict we are going to lose the next war, and lose it
badly. And that will consist of military defeat, as well as economic
defeat. Because we are a feckless people who are way, way
overconfident. This one will not only get troops killed (it will), it
will bring some level of significant war horror to the streets and
cities of our nation.
We need to pull back, pronto. I know our
government is illegitimate and cares not about the will of the people
... but, we must pray to God who loves us that we will not go to war
against Russia in favor of this hideous, perverse owg regime in Ukraine.
We need a miracle. [https://www.thecatholicmonitor.com/2022/03/might-biden-be-willing-to-destroy-us.html]
[Moreover,] Br. Bugnolo is wrong on this one, and it's a big one.
In his five points, listed above, he is wrong on 2-5.
- quote -
Ukraine posed and poses no imminent threat to the territorial integrity of Russia
- NATO with all its armaments and self defense agreements adjacent
Ukraine never issued any threats against Russia or her allies.
- Bio-weapons research along their border
Ukraine was not engaged in an act of war against Russia or its allies.
- Violence against citizens of Donbas region and ethnic Russians.
Ukrainian people want to protect and maintain their own sovereignty and independence.
- Ukrainian people hate their government - it was imposed; it is peopled by Nazis ... the real kind.
- end quote (with comments) -
And then, this whopper - "But instead of turning to God, they turned to Putin".
What
does that even mean? Christendom has its roots in the Western civil
order due to the vision of Constantine. He was not a Bishop or a
Priest. He was an Emperor. And he gave space for Christians by
defeating the enemies of Christendom and giving an ear to Bishops and
Priests; respecting Christians as essential subjects of his domains.
Since
the fall of the Soviet Communist system, Russia has forsaken its
godless past and returned to its ancient roots which are Orthodox. This
is expressed in real, practical ways, such as building Cathedrals and
Churches at government expense; encouraging and giving space for the
spread of the Orthodox Faith. Making public affirmations of the
importance to Russian society and governance of Christian Orthodoxy.
And
then - you have Ukraine and it's coke sniffing sodomite ruler who was
installed by a "color revolution" coup in 2014, similar to our own of
2020 - by the same corrupt actors behind the scenes. You have their
corrupt partners in America - Biden, Obama, Clinton - all participants
in the sodo-corruption trough of government money laundering schemes.
In our nation Christianity is greatly restricted in public life,
governance, even within the sacred spaces of our Catholic Churches where
God Himself is present.
And this corrupt government has
bio-weapons laboratories and factories, at least eleven of them, funded
by US DOD, spread along the Ukraine/Russian border. There is, according
to Senator Tulsi Gabbard, 300 or so additional labs like this
throughout the world. Conducting dangerous research into bio weapons of
mass destruction, outlawed since the 1920's (post WW I), updated in
1972 by the Bio Weapons Convention.
And after all we know from
the last two + years ... Br. Bugnolo reaches THIS conclusion? He takes
the side of governments dedicated to the proposition of individual
submission to One World Government enslavement?
The US travelled
6,000 miles to bomb, destroy, depose and remake the governments of Iraq
and Afghanistan because ... chemical weapons stockpiles were *KNOWN* to
exist there - proven by our "very best intelligence". But Russia can't
defend an actual great we all see with our own eyes - right on its own
border?
And then - NATO. How would we respond if Mexico entered
into a Sino-Soviet alliance dedicated to our own destruction ... similar
to the Cuban missile crisis, armaments, possibly nuclear, delivered and
installed along our e tire southern border; binding agreements to
defense against Yankee imperialism codified? Does he actually propose,
that is no threat?
Putin has been very clear. "This red line is
existential to Russia. Do not cross". Well, we crossed it. And Putin
did what he said he would do. And as far as I'm concerned - it makes
total sense. And as far as I'm concerned the Christian Russia has a
better overall case than the illegitimate, corrupt, atheistic sodomite
regime installed by fraud.
Bugnolo makes no sense on this one. [https://www.thecatholicmonitor.com/2022/03/is-biden-spreading-wwiii-to-middle-east.html]
