Little LARPer high heels Zelenskyy pulled out all the sob-inducing stops in his highly-emotional tear-jerking appeal for unwary Americans to finance his regime and be willing to start WWIII to retain him in power as the puppet of US interests in Ukraine.
In short order, shorty short stuff stirringly invoked Mount Rushmore, Pearl Harbor, 9/11, and MLK's “I have a dream” in his scripted Wednesday beg-a-thon to the DEMOCRAT-dominated U.S. Congress presided over by a San Franciscan sot who's heavily invested in weapons stocks.
I strongly suspect his special pleading plea was written for him by Susan Rice, Victoria Nuland and Jake "The Snake" Sullivan.
Unfortunately, his sappy, saccharine script omitted any mention of Washington’s Farewell Address.
The vertically-challenged Ukrainian comedian/actor/dancer/president crammed Old Glory and most of American history into his asinine appeal to the concept of "free dumb" to ask the United States to die for him in his fight, and pick up the tab while we're at it, because he left his wallet at home.
“Is this a lot to ask for, to create a no-fly zone, zone over Ukraine to save people?” High heels Zelenskyy whined wistfully. “Is this too much to ask, humanitarian no-fly zone, something that Ukraine, that Russia would not be able to terrorize our free cities?”
Why, yes, shorty McShort. However understandable it may be that you would ask, it actually is too much to ask.
You see, here's the thing:
- No-fly zones aren't maintained with declarations or mean tweets. They have to be backed up with force.
- Enforcing a no-fly zone over unhappy Ukraine would mean shooting down Russian warplanes.
- I suspect that shooting down Russian aircraft would mean war with Russia, who, if I recall correctly, have nukes.
The "alternative" called for more of our tax dollars and more virtue signaling.
Here's my take.
I believe in America first - in everything.
I believe America's interests dictate that we avoid starting a war with another nuclear power in another hemisphere.
IMO Americans should not maintain more than a sporting interest in über-underdog Ukraine repelling the evil invader, and to this observer, that seems likely to be a forlorn hope, at best.
To paraphrase the late Muhammad Ali, ‘I Ain’t Got No Quarrel With Them
Those of you courageous souls who feel differently huddled behind your keyboards are, of course, free to fly to Europe and get involved as a private citizen if you wish. Wear a mask.
But Not In My Name.
