NATO troops in Ukraine, probably soon

It is very easy to understand the fear and hatred Poles and Lithuanians have for Russia which dominated them for centuries. Still, I think they are making a big mistake if they widen this war. And that mistake is based on the mistake of three decades ago when Lithuania, at least, could have declared neutrality and worked as a bridge between Russia and Europe. There is karma at work in this. How it will unfold is impossible to predict. But neither country has the military might to defeat Russia. Even all of Europe does not. So the US neocon proxy war against Ukraine will expand to involve more of Europe and possibly all of Europe. No one will gain except the neocons who will stand over the ashes of Europe and Russia, sole ruler of the West. Incidentally, precisely this scenario—with a ruined America included—is a common Chinese fantasy of how China will come to dominate the earth. ABN

  1. well said. If we (the West) widen the war, we are sowing the seeds of our own destruction.

    Tangentially, when you said “There is karma at work in this. How it will unfold is impossible to predict.”, I was reminded of one of my favorite lines from the Bhagavad Gita, where Krishna says “The laws of karma are unfathomable.” It always strikes me as ironic and funny, here is God himself telling us even He can’t figure out karma!

    I enjoy your posts. Keep up the good work!
