It’s not one country versus another country anymore. It’s ruthless militarism (whatever country perpetrates it) versus the yearning of the human heart.
Citizens in 53 cities throughout Russia have hit the streets to protest the bloodshed brought on by war planners in their grand palaces. Not easy, but ordinary people with courage can stop imperialist wars - think Vietnam. Encouraging. theguardian.com/world/2022/f…

Think Vietnam. Yes indeed. Think long and hard about Vietnam, then ask yourself, if you are really against militarism in principle, which country in the world is the greatest threat to your ideals?

Marianne, I have the utmost respect for you, however, if there was no treat of Nuclear War. We will go back to conventional war, which is barbaric to say the least. At least Nuclear war provides a Zero Sum Game. And like you said our leaders are insane.

Sometimes I think Marianne is this weird combination of William F Buckley's verbal grace and the marrow deep humanity that I wish we all felt.
