The Russia-haters in the State Department and the aggressive expansionists in NATO are responsible for the war in Ukraine. It should never have happened.

Vendetta
The US/NATO vendetta against Russia using Ukraine as the pawn will lead to the destruction of Ukraine. It also brings in the nuclear specter. And by the way, the sanctions mean starvation around the world. The Russia-haters in the US and NATO don’t care.
Where Are the Peacekeepers?
What one should be asking oneself about the conflict in Ukraine is where are the peacekeepers? It is obvious that a settlement of the dispute would be very beneficial to all the parties — Europe, Russia, and most of all Ukraine itself, for, if this war in Ukraine continues and no doubt escalates, the entire country will be ravaged.
But where are the third-party peacekeepers who might aid in brokering an agreement between Russia and Ukraine? No one seems to be stepping up to this task despite the clear benefits for all.
The areas of Ukraine that the Russian military has taken over have a majority of ethnic-Russians in their populations, so it isn’t unrealistic for these areas to be incorporated into Russia — that’s called democracy or rule by the majority. The deal would include the guaranteeing of the new borders of Ukraine against any further incursion by Russia, along with the compromise that Ukraine remains unaligned with NATO. Those are the obvious parameters of such an agreement.
Why would Ukraine entertain such an agreement with loss of territory? Because they are facing devastation to the middle and western parts of their country — currently relatively unscathed — as well as the loss of the entire coastline, including Odessa, so that Ukraine would become completely landlocked, and so no longer benefit as a lucrative transit point for the eastern trade route.
But instead of stepping up to encourage such an agreement, the West has elected instead to open the floodgates of military aid to Ukraine. Clearly, the West, egged on by the US, doesn’t want peace, but is willing to sacrifice Ukraine in order to debilitate Russia. That’s why there are no peacekeepers. The West is using Ukraine to wage covert war against Russia.
This will not end well for the West, certainly not for Ukraine.
Waging war, even indirectly, is an unpredictable animal. The current generation of would-be diplomats in the West seems to have forgotten this fact. And Kennedy’s sword-of-Damocles remark relative to the threat of nuclear war is still very pertinent today — perhaps more pertinent than ever.
Finally Some Sanity
Finally, an American politician — Rand Paul — stands up to the Russia-haters, and adds some sanity to American policy in regard to the Ukraine situation, which clearly has been caused by US/NATO-promoted NATO expansion, not by Russia.
Lunatics in Charge
The anti-Russia politicians in Washington are the lunatics in charge of our foreign policy with regard to the Ukraine war.
US has gone off the rails. This will not end well.
Don’t See Irony
The woke liberals in the US don’t see irony in their supporting a Nazi regime in Ukraine.
Lying
The lying in the Ukraine war is on the Ukrainian side, and it is encouraged by the Western press, which has an unbalanced view toward Russia.
Liberators
The Russian military are considered to be liberators in areas of Ukraine where ethnic Russians are the majority. You don’t get this story told by the Western press.
The ethnic Russians in Ukraine have been discriminated against for years, and they are afraid of the Ukrainian hit squads sent out to eradicate dissent.
Ukrainians — NATO’s Pawns
The Ukrainians are NATO’s pawns in NATO’s undeclared war against Russia. They are going to get steamrolled by the Russian military.
The responsible party for causing this war in Ukraine isn’t Russia but NATO — its reckless expansion eastward despite legitimate Russian security issues.
The real victims here are the Ukrainian people, now brought to the slaughter by NATO’s relentless ambitions.
No Ukraine Involvement
The US should stay out of the Ukraine situation. Not in our national interest to get involved in any way. This war was caused by NATO’s reckless expansion eastward.
Instead of constantly taking an adversarial position relative to the interests of Russia, the US should see and understand their point of view on issues and be willing to compromise.
