Russia and Putin paint their surface politics as honorable, but the rust and filth underneath is there. I wrote a post about Putin: https://thecontemplativecat.blogspot.com/2017/10/blow-out-candles.html

So true. A lot of good could come from all the money spent on weapons. Such a waste.
ReplyDeleteI am glad you posted this. Unfortunately nothing wise or witty comes to mind. Playthings of war are never good things.
ReplyDeleteLet's hope saner heads prevail, although those are in notably short supply these days.
ReplyDeleteWar is a big machine and it makes a lot of money for many.

All the best Jan
