OPINION:
Unfortunately, Ukraine has fake friends in the West and around the world. Ukraine was attacked by Russia. Thousands of peaceful, innocent Ukrainians have been killed. Russia devastated civilian housing, infrastructure and living needs.
But Henry Kissinger and other fake friends warn the West not to humiliate Russian President Vladimir Putin. What nonsense! Mr. Putin has already humiliated himself with his greedy, stupid, blood-thirsty decisions and actions. The goal should be to defend Ukraine and save Ukrainian lives. To do that, the West must give Ukraine weapons that will strike into Russia. All the roads, bridges, railways and Russian air force bases within 300 miles of the Ukrainian border must be destroyed. The Russians use the infrastructure to bring more soldiers, weapons, munitions, food and fuel to Russian forces already in Ukraine. Cutting off the new supplies and forces will help “starve” the Russian military in Ukraine so it stops fighting for lack of supplies. That will save Ukrainian lives.
If the West does not give weapons to strike into Russia, then it is silently approving and supporting the Russian attack to eliminate Ukraine and Ukrainian people through a slow genocide.
What Adolf Hitler tried to do to Jews in the 20th century Vladimir Putin is trying to do to Ukrainians in the 21st. Putin is a modern-day Hitler. Let’s refer to him as “Putler” and give Ukraine what it needs to make the Russians hurt so much they cry “Stop! We want peace!”
