2025 v3. Wood, Not War

Cyclone bearing down on the eastern coast. Got gen-sets n fuel all ready for the power to fail. Will go to town n buy a bunch of grog, meat, and beans… We shall survive… It dont take much to survive.

Just a quick thought this fine blustery morning…

All my friends and family (and a few million others I am not acquainted with) appear to think the War in Ukraine should go on and on and on… until…

???

I see slogans like “I stand with Ukraine”… but I’m a bit confused… what does this mean?

? Does it mean you stand with Zelensky and his crowd? Knowing well these folks are diverting billions and billions for their own benefit. Zelensky needs to call an election. Lets see if his own folks stand with him. Why doesn’t he want to bring the death and destruction to an end?

? Does it mean you stand with the numerous Ukrainians that have already ran away from death and destruction and sit as refugees in Germany or France? What about these folks? Maybe we should Hera what they think, what they have to say?

? Does it mean you stand with the soldiers who are being conscripted and sent to die at the front? Both side are bleeding youth dry. It aint the old farts that go die in the War. It’s the youth of a Nation who pay the highest price for a refusal to negotiate. Are these the Ukrainians you stand with?

We’re in our 3rd year here. 3rd year in a war averaging a few thousand deaths a week…

Cant see why it’s such a good idea for this all to continue. Why all the noise and emotion…. is it the gouls who clamour for the continuation, or is the fools?

If there is a chance, even a slight chance, for settlement, for a cessation of death and destruction, shouldn’t we be taking it?

I don get it. All these nice well meaning bleeding hearts are saying they want this war to continue.

I dont get it….

Wood, not war…
