This kind of thing has happened before, but the USA didn't retaliate until years too late against countries on a murder-rampage against their neighbors:

Falsus in unum, falsus in omnibus
Japan went on a murder-rampage in July 7, 1937. Germany in September 1, 1939. President Roosevelt wanted those countries stopped but the Republican and Dixiecrat Senators called FDR a warmonger until Pearl Harbor Day, Dec. 7, 1941. FDR could have stopped Japan and Germany in only a year's fighting, but Republican and Dixiecrat Senators would let those separate wars blossom into the biggest fire fight in Earth's history because the Senators would not vote for a declaration of war.
Now that I think of it, US Senators haven't voted for a declaration of war in 80 years. A majority of Senators are too irresponsible to make a decision about war or anything of substance, which is why the Senate has been malfunctioning for 80 years and getting worse and worse as the Senate has filled up with more and more elderly folk.

The Disappeared
Russian lawmaker Oleg Morozov of the pro-government United Russia political party, the largest in the country, was recently sharing his thoughts on a Rossiya-1 state television talk show. Speaking to pro-Kremlin TV host Olga Skabeyeva, he asked: what if Russian agents kidnapped a NATO country defense minister while they were visiting Kyiv to meet Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy? The minister would wake up, shocked, in Moscow.
“You mean we abduct them?” Skabeyeva responded, according to Reuters.
“Yes,” Morozov answered. “And then we would sort out who gave which order for what, who is responsible for what exactly. It is not such a mythical picture … There are new rules in the world now. Let all those war ministers gathering in Kyiv think a little about what it would be like to wake up in Moscow.”
This comical political rhetoric alludes to but also elides the horrific recent history of kidnappings in the Russo-Ukrainian War. “All over Ukraine, people are missing, forcing families to become detectives,” went the headline of a Washington Post story about Ukrainians seeking to solve the fates of around 9,000 missing loved ones who have disappeared since Russia invaded Ukraine in late February. Authorities are simultaneously investigating 13,000 alleged war crimes in the same period.
Sometimes the kidnappings are designed to intimidate Ukrainians living in a war zone, as France 24 explained, referring to Ukrainians who were detained, abused and tortured because they spoke out against Russian occupation. Russian forces have also made a point to “disappear” Ukrainian local officials, like mayors, who might organize resistance movements, Vox noted.
But Britain recently imposed further sanctions on Russia to signal disapproval over Russian forces abducting Ukrainian children and giving them to Russian families, the Guardian reported. The sanctions include Maria Lvova-Belova, a Putin ally who is the Russian children’s rights commissioner. She stands accused of running a state-sanctioned abduction program. Ukrainian officials claim that Lvova-Belova has masterminded the kidnappings of more than 2,000 children.
Russia has also taken other measures to absorb Ukrainians and wipe out their identities. As the Daily Beast noted, Russian occupiers of the Ukrainian city of Kherson recently decreed that all children born in the region since the invasion started would automatically be considered citizens of Russia. These measures are common throughout history when powerful nationalist forces seek to erase communities who don’t fit in with their plans, wrote University of South Carolina Law Professor Marcia Zug in the Conversation.
What’s inconvenient for them, though: Just because people disappear doesn’t mean they will be forgotten.

Quote:Putin cares. He is waiting for Trump, but the Ukrainian army is better than the Russian army (more motivated, better trained and led) and that NATO weapons are better than Russian weapons. If the current coalition in support of Ukraine holds together, a Trump victory in 2024 would be too late to salvage a Russian victory in Ukraine.

Putin had better shift his hopes to congressional Republicans taking an isolationist turn and refusing to extend military and economic aid to Ukraine.

You know what's not a fantasy?
The price hikes on food and just about everything else coming shortly down the pike because of the lack of fertilizer we've got right now thanks to JoeBama*.
Funny that the media isn't warning you about that.
I hope you've been taking my advice to stock up on food and other things, Sigs. At least you can blunt the trauma of all of the hikes we're about to see in a month or two for a while, and avoid not having things you need when we go back to Covid level toilet paper shortages on just about everything.
I'm basically stocked to the gills on everything I possibly can have stocked up within their shelf life at this point.
Well... except for gas. Although I know more than one asshole who is sitting on an extremely dangerous amount of gasoline reserves at their residence, I'm not going to do that.

Quote:A WWII refugee from Ukraine links Putin’s war to Stalin’s famine

By Oleh Wolowyna, Ph.D., a fellow at the Center for Slavic, Eurasian, and East European Studies at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill.
According to our estimates of the famine’s impact, about 4 million people, or 13% of Soviet Ukraine’s population in 1933, were starved to death between 1932 and 1934, and 600,000 children were not born.
A unique characteristic of the Holodomor is that 80% of the 4 million deaths happened in six months. There was an explosion of mortality during the first half of 1933, with the number of deaths caused by the famine increasing 10 times between January and June of that year. At the height of the famine in June 1933, there were 28,000 famine-related deaths per day, or 1,167 per hour, or 19 per minute. Mortality levels of this magnitude are not found in other human-made famines. According to French historian Alain Blum, “Rarely, in all of the demographic history of Europe, will a famine have caused losses of such proportions” (Mr. Blum’s emphasis).
Why inflict such torture?
The French historian Nicolas Werth provides the following summary of Stalin’s objectives: “Choosing to instrumentalize the famine, Stalin intentionally amplified it in order to punish the Ukrainian peasants who rejected the ‘new serfdom’ and to break ‘Ukrainian nationalism,’ which he saw as a threat to his goal of constructing a centralized and dictatorial Soviet state.”
Ninety years later
Vladimir Putin’s invasion of Ukraine is an updated version of Stalin’s deliberately manufactured famine. Stalin denied the famine’s existence; Mr. Putin claimed he had no intention of invading Ukraine. Mentioning the famine was punishable by law, as is the case today with describing the invasion as war. Ukrainians starved to death during the Holodomor because Stalin took away most of the grain produced by Ukrainian peasants; Mr. Putin is stealing hundreds of thousands of tons of Ukrainian grain. In terms of Ukrainian identity, though, Mr. Putin has in some ways gone a step further than Stalin by denying the very existence of Ukraine and claiming that all Ukrainians are Russian.
When the war is over, I will probably return to Ukraine and, with my colleagues there, face the task of documenting a second genocide. We will try to determine how many civilians were killed, how many children were not born because of the war, and what proportion of future generations has been lost forever.

At Least 18 Killed in Russian Missile Strike on Ukrainian Shopping Mall
The Ukrainian defense ministry said the strike was deliberately timed to coincide with the mall's busiest hours and cause the maximum number of victims.
The Ukrainian air force said the mall was hit by Kh-22 anti-ship missiles fired from Tu-22 bombers from the region of Kursk in western Russia.
"The missile fire on Kremenchuk struck a very busy area which had no link to the hostilities," the city's mayor Vitali Maletsky wrote on Facebook.
Russia has not yet commented on the strike. In the past, Moscow has denied targeting civilians and accused Kyiv and its Western allies of staging such attacks.

Meanwhile, Russia’s deputy ambassador to the UN, Dmitry Polyanskiy, wrote on Twitter, without citing evidence, that the attack was a “Ukrainian provocation”. “Exactly what Kiev regime needs to keep focus of attention on Ukraine before (the) NATO Summit,” he said, referring to the alliance’s Madrid gathering due to begin on Tuesday.

Alternative lie from Russia: Russia's defence ministry on Tuesday denied hitting a shopping mall in the Ukrainian city of Kremenchuk with missiles, saying it had struck a weapons depot and a subsequent explosion of ammunition had triggered a fire in the nearby mall. I think the more believable lie is accusing Ukraine of blowing up Ukraine's mall to get sympathy from NATO. It is probably time for Ukraine to blow up a Russian mall inside Russia. Is there a major Russian shopping holiday coming sooner than Christmas? Xmas Eve is a great time to kill Russian women and children and a few store Santa Clauses but it is 6 months away!
