Give Part of Ukraine to Russia

   Why not allow Russia to have whatever part of Ukraine that wants to be part of that country. That's democracy. Americans shouldn't fight against democracy. So, if the people in parts of Ukraine want to be part of Russia, let them. 

   Possibly, this is a way to end the Russia-Ukraine War.

 Ukrainian refugees' visas should be expidited. Remember how visas for Afghans were sped through the process? More than 100,000 Afghan refugees were allowed into the U.S. within a month. The same should be done for the Ukrainians.

How About a World Festival of Music?

   The World Festival of Music. Here's proposing that there should be such a thing. Every kind of music -- from Barbershop quartets to Native American Singing, from Lorne Greene to Bruce Springsteen -- would be on display. Each music group would be given time on stage, whether one hour or six hours fit them. When available, cover bands would perform. And, when the bands, themselves, could be drawn in to perform, they would be.  Those attending the festival would be invited to perform karaoke performances of their favorite artists.  Fans could make requests on which songs to play.The history of the bands would be discussed. Fans would meet others who liked the same musicians, and exchange contact information.. CDs would be sold. There would be sing-off competitions, and musicians of small acclaim would be given opportunity to perform.

  It would probably have to start as a local attraction, instead of an affair attracting fans worldwide, then grow as it could.

 A Prayer In The Middle Of The Night

I say a prayer in the middle of the night

Praying that everything will turn out right

I say this prayer with all my might

Knowing that God can make things right

(Poems)

U.S. Should Enter the War

 The U.S. is not entering the Russian-Ukraine War because it does not want to escalate the crisis. I suggest we should be entering the war, anyway. When someone commits the atrocities Putin has, you don't sit silently on the sidelines. 

Putin's Hope of Support is Crumbling

     Putin's belief that he would be welcomed as a liberator has crumbled. Captured Russian soldiers have said they regret their role in the conflict. These two facts underscore his lack of support in ways he thought he would have. 

Ukraine is one of the biggest humanitarian crisises since World War II. Two million refugees have left Ukraine. 

Taken Putin Out, Assassinate Him

    There is only one way to stop Vladimir Putin and Russia's attack on Ukraine: Assassintate him. Of all the people the U.S. has taken out, Saddam Hussain, Osama bin Laden and others, no one is in such need of being taken out than Vladimir Putin. Assassinate him.

Clairvoyant

On this one, I was clairvoyant. I said the Putin persuaded the Russian soldiers they were doing a humanitarian good deed when they really weren't.

Out of Gas

I'm out of gas

Or I'd go gas up the car

But without some gas

I wouldn't get far

Agree

Sometimes I argue with myself

Sometimes we do not agree

But when I go to bed

I'm so tired of myself

That I give up and agree

The Color of My Cape

If I ride upon a horse

Does it mean I am a horse?

If I whistle in the wind 

Does it mean I am the wind"

Not the color of my cape

(Quotes)

 From Quora:

Picture: Visual difference. Rasputin is to the left, and the picture makes a Russian-language pun, where “Rasputin” is made to mean “Putin #1”, and Putin is labelled as “Putin #2”.

These men have only one point in common - they were both involved in Russian politics.

Threat of Russia Using Nuclear Weapons has Increased

From Newsweek: " 'If the Russian campaign starts to feel like it's a military catastrophe, that's where escalation to nuclear weapons comes into play,' " says Barry Posen, Ford International Professor of Political Science at MIT."

 Why cry over spilled milk? It already had gone sour.

This, Too, Is a Humanitarian Crisis

    This, too, is a humanitarian crisis: The Russian soldiers are being forced to fight a fight that could have catastrophic consequences. Even if they are brainwashed by Putin into thinking the war is justified, the fact remains the same: They are fighting for a cause bringing great distruction. However you choose to spell it, that is a humanitarian crisis.
