In the days to come, thousands of innocent Ukrainians will suffer - just because they do not want to be under any autocratic government - under a " thug " like Vladimir Putin - who now must be taken out - make no bones - the Russian people detest him - but can do little - we can bring him to his knees now - the man is suffering from acute paranoia. We cannot negotiate with a mad person.
History has not been kind to Ukraine - over the hundred and fifty years, the Ukrainians have suffered just because of their location. Stalin starved the Ukrainians and then blamed the Ukrainians themselves.
For the last 30 years - the people of Ukraine have managed to vote for Democracy - no mean feat - while most of Europe and the United States, England, Canada, and others have been watching the Ukraine situation - with little or no concern.
We know something about history - the exact thing that is happening today in Ukraine happened before - during World War II - with Hitler attacking nations with provocation and taking over governments - purging the Jews and causing untold harm to those who confronted the Nazis - the Third Reich.
Hundreds of Russian tanks surround Ukraine - added missiles, including hypersonic missiles that radar cannot detect. Vladimir Putin threatening Ukraine with cyber-attacks - and even threatening to use nuclear weapons. President Joe Biden has no clue about the danger and consequences of cyberattacks - and less about hypersonic missiles - the Russians already are in Ukraine and in control of the airports and more.
These makeshift trenches at the most allow anyone to watch over the movement of the troops at ground zero. What makes this type of monitoring better are the use of tanks with missiles to wipe out Russian tanks - other shoulder-held missiles - and drones that can reveal the GPS of the enemy and keep them at bay.
Vladimir Putin is a liar. Much like Donald Trump. Much like the Republicans who are now making small talk. The Republicans never expected Vladimir Putin - to invade Ukraine - in this manner. No one expected Vladimir Putin - to use hundreds of missiles to cause damage and control of strategic locations and targets - airports, government buildings, electric grids, any facilities - that hampers the Ukraine government.
As the hours go by - hundreds of innocent people will die - innocent people that we could have saved through good diplomatic talks - we the United States tried some - but failed miserably.
Again, we must go to the fiasco in Afghanistan that revealed to the world - that we, the United States, could invade any nation.
Stay for 20 years - as we did in Afghanistan - leave it in a mess - and really leave it - in a worse condition - without keeping our promise to help those we promised to help.
We left billions of dollars of guns, ammunition, tanks, other equipment - that we could have donated to nations like Ukraine.
We did not. We left it for the Taliban to use - even our military uniforms - and no one gives a damn - why we do this - and why do we invade other nations - who have not attacked us - anyway.
This photograph reveals some damage - soon we will see more - and with it human casualties and more. We must do all in our power - to STOP this carnage - and use our might to make a point.
The Russians have hundreds of tanks - Ukraine lacks equipment - and this and other needed equipment should have been in place - a long time ago. Again and again, the Ukrainian Government for help - the United States could have done better - had we done a sound needs assessment - he laughs best who laughs last.
Last night - I head the member nations - on the Security Council -
each one repeating what Vladamir Putin must do - while the Five members with Veto powers - pussyfooting - the worst among them Mainland China and Russia - the chair a Russian - adjudicating a Russian issue - and openly siding with Russia.
United Nations was formed in San Francisco - and the Charter signed at the War Memorial - on the Van Ness side - San Francisco City Hall overlooking the War Memorial.
Plans were afoot to headquarters the United Nations at the Presidio of San Francisco - an open military base - Sixth U.S. Army and Presidio of San Francisco - in place.
This did not happen - the Rockefellers had the money and convinced the rich and famous - to move the headquarters to New York. The initial building in New York was completed in 1949.
The Security Council met last night and did their best.
Last night I heard the Security Council members making their arguments. Even the African nations, Ghana and Kenya - speak truth to power. The Irish delegate making her point - even the United Emirates - pressing forward. The Big Five are not united - more, they do not embrace what the United Nations was created - in San Francisco - October 24, 1945 - in San Francisco, California.
The United Nations - some 51 nations agreed - never again could any government invade another country - without first going through a process to bring about peace - the United Nations would be that body - and has been in place - all these many years.
Today we have a mad man Vladamir Putin - paranoiac consumes this demon - Vladamir Putin does not care about the infants, the children, women, our Elders - those with compromised health.
The Russian people themselves do not like him.
He is a dictator - his way of the high course - a thug of the first order.
A KGB agent that we should have had nothing to do with.
Yet George Bush invited the demon to his farm in Texas.
Donald Trump sold him our secrets - today, we are dealing with Lucifer himself.
