This is not a proxy war, it is genocide and the world wants it to stop!

...The Kremlin has sharply criticized Western efforts (click here) to help Ukraine, accusing Washington and its NATO allies of waging a proxy war against Moscow and raising concerns that Russia could at some point grow intolerant of the intervention and target the United States or another NATO country. Russian President Vladimir Putin recently named Milley’s Russian counterpart, Gen. Valery Gerasimov as his top commander in Ukraine, a move observers have said is a strong indication Moscow has no inclination to end its invasion as the war nears its one-year mark with more than 100,000 dead or wounded on both sides....

There is a lot going on in the world. The communists post Trump have decided to attack democracy and freedom. I am grateful for General Milley's leadership. He is as brave as he is wise. Those are characteristics that aren't necessary found in all those that lead.

The genocide in Ukraine is profound and it is continuing. There are 6.48 million Ukrainians displaced (click here) with $564 billion in damage to Ukraine's infrastructure and lost economic growth and 10 million square meters (2471 acres) of damaged and destroyed housing.


Before the genocide it is estimated there were 43.8 million people in Ukraine. It is estimated there are still approximately 43 million still alive today. Russia has removed Ukrainians from the homeland and sent them to settlements in Russia.

This genocide is anything but a proxy war. The USA would never engage in a proxy war that kills so many of the people the world wants to protect.
