sigh—-sometimes it is so difficult to understand why governments and government workers say so many sad,
insane, ridiculous or outrageous things. With the condition of the planet so perilous , it seems that those with
the ability to speak so often seem insane liars who are merely following the governmental direction of the moment.
We are all screwed. These people have no business deciding what’s for lunch, much less world events.
“Precisely one year ago, the unheard of,” blah, blah, blah. Yada. Yada. Yada. Russia. Russia. Russia!” ad nauseum, “It’s One (1) Year of Aggression, War Crimes & Crimes Against Humanity…..by One Country. One Culture. One Man ”
Precisely one year later, “It’s BAD. Gettin’ WORSE.” U.S./NATO, Country to Country, desensitizing the General Assembly & The Universe. Pack’n Hate & War AGAINST One Country, One Culture, One Man, VLADIMIR PUTIN & RUSSIA. FORGETTING, “RUSSIA didn’t go into Ukraine to play U.S./NATO’S war games; RUSSIA went into Ukraine to change it!”
“And, all “we” wanna know, is, where’d all the “Good People” go? We got heaps & heaps of what we sow.” ‘Sittin’ round feeling far away. So, far away; BUT, I can feel the debris. Can you feel it?
“They” ‘got this and that w/a rattle-a-tat. Bad News. Misused.” Give us the wholly truth!!! “We’ve got too much to lose..” Whose side are you on?
United “they” Stand, “Everywhere ther’s lotsa piggies living piggy lives. You can see them out for dinner, w/their piggy wives. Clutching forks and knives, to eat the bacon!!”
Do the MATH (Make America Think Harder) It’s 55+ Years of Deception, Destruction, Death. It’s f/MADness (Mutually Assured Destruction) per the collaboration, collusion, cooperation of The “United” Nations @ The General Assembly.
“And all we really wanna know is, “Where’d all the “Good People” go?” I don’t see them @ The General Assembly. Ciao

And it just gets me how unironically the US/European and allied countries talk about how horrible the crime of aggression is, committed by a permanent member of the UN Security Council no less! Most of these countries were involved in the unprovoked destruction of either Yugoslavia, Iraq, Afghanistan, Libya, Syria, or Vietnam, and act like preemptive war or invasions haven’t happened since the 1940s. They must really think their own citizens were born yesterday.
When they talk about this, it’s as if they are talking about themselves. And sadly, i doubt really if many citizens are following these debates.
It’s kind of wild how all the Western statements are copy and paste “Mr President, a year ago today Russian began it’s illegal, immoral, blah, blah, blah” You can just skip over all of them because not only are the childish Good vs Evil talking points identical, but even the phrasing and structure of the remarks. It reminds me of those compilations of local US news anchors repeating the same stories word for word. After the 6th or 7th time, how many in the audience need to be reminded that the current stage of the war began one year ago?
In similar vein, I would suggest that only those states who condemned US involvement in Iraq and Afghanistan have the consistency and moral fitness to comment on this conflict. As it stands now, there is only one side coming from the West–a lock step, sterotyped charade of virtue signaling.
The Global South/majority gets it. This might be the time the UN is forced to live up to its promise. Time to put up or shut up and admit defeat. The session was inspired and hopeful.
The US has veto power. There will be no UN investigation.
My mistake. The UNSC debate about the need for a follow up investigation after the.Hersh bombshell was hopeful. The UNGA vote was not!
