The Ukraine War is Going Badly – PART I

Dear Friends and Family:

In spite of what we hear from the Biden regime and mainstream media, the war in Ukraine is going very badly for Ukraine, NATO, and the United States.  Retired U.S. Army Colonel Douglas Macgregor, a decorated combat tactical legend who led and won the last largest tank battle of the 20th century in Iraq, taught at West Point, authored five books on military strategy, and was the Senior Military Advisor to the U.S. Secretary of Defense under President Trump, has stated that Ukraine is losing the war badly, and provides details and a larger context for this major conflict underway and where it could easily lead.

This issue of LifeintheSpirit blog, The Ukrainian War is Going Badly,  explores this in more depth and the implications for our nation and our way of life. You won’t want to miss it.

Be bold. Be strong. Be courageous and walk with our Lord.

Who Should Decide the Future of Crimea?

Crimea was part of Russia until Khrushchev transferred it to Ukraine in 1954.  Who should decide where their home should be?  The West?  Ukraine? The Crimeans?  Putin?

When our president told Russian Prime Minister Medvedev “tell Vladimir after the election, I will have more flexibility”, what did he mean?

After cancelling the anti-missile shield we promised to eastern Europe, why should they trust us now?

Recently our president took credit for helping (while a U.S. Senator) convince the Ukrainians to eliminate their nuclear weapons.  What would the Ukrainians say about that now?

We are unwilling to return Germany’s gold, and Russia provides them major industrial commodities and natural gas.  Given the cold German winters, why would they would want to remain our ally?

How can we talk about promoting democracy when we supported (with $5B) the overthrow of the democratically-elected (and Russia-leaning) president of Ukraine?

The Russians have only two warm water ports, one of which is in Crimea.  Did we really expect them to give it up when our people came to power in Ukraine?     

When we levy sanctions against Russia, are we aware that they and their Chinese friends can crash the dollar by selling their treasuries?  (Get ready for $10 milk and $12 gas.)

Our nation is staring at WWIII, and it won’t just happen over there.  The sovereign, living God of the universe is not surprised by these events.  He is available 24/7, and is waiting to hear from us.  But time may be short.
