Fighting Evil – Two Years Later

I thought it would be over by now.  I’m sure many of us thought it would be.  But no.  Here we are again, two years later, and there doesn’t seem to be an end in sight.  Why is it taking so long?  The answer has been clear since Day 1, but the powers that be are still struggling and dilly-dallying to comprehend what needs to be done.  They probably know what needs to be done but are too scared to do what is necessary because they actually believe Evil’s empty threats.

It appears the war in Ukraine has reached a stalemate of sorts, but Ukraine’s Armed Forces are suffering.  They recently lost the Battle of Avdiivka because or relentless orc attacks and low ammunition.  The loss of the city opens the rest of the Donetsk area to attack.  At least the orcs suffered heavy casualties and could only declare a pyrrhic victory.  Unfortunately, this victory has given the orc hordes the initiative to continue their relentless attacks on land, sea, and air.

Ukrainian armed forces are still putting up stiff resistance against the orcs, but they have to give up land to prevent being surrounded, destroyed, and/or forced to surrender.  It’s not an ideal war strategy, but they have no choice now that they have to ration & conserve ammunition.  Domestic ammunition production is increasing but slowly.  Ukraine needs more ammunition, vehicles, supplies, soldiers to defend itself against Evil but also to push it back out of all of Ukraine.  Military aid is still being delivered in short batches (piecemeal).  This needs to be changed to constant never ending abundance until the very end.        

The ongoing ammunition shortage is due to political deadlock in the USA over whether to pass another military aid package and low production capacity in western European countries.  I still can’t believe there are Republican politicians who support the orcs.  They must be brainwashed, bribed, or isolationist.  The one thing I never liked about American foreign policy is isolationism.  In many cases, especially on the world stage, doing nothing is worse.  If you want to gloat & brag about how your country is the beacon of freedom and defender of the Free World, then you need to always be involved in world matters.  I hope the political deadlock will be resolved soon and the USA will approve a new military aid bill.  Other NATO countries provide weapons to Ukraine, but they don’t come close to the amount the USA can provide.

The USA and all NATO countries need to immediately increase weapons’ productions and supply them to Ukraine.  It’s only a matter of time before NATO will have to go to war with the orcs.  Nuclear threats made by the forces of Evil should be noted and ignored.  They’re a bluff.  If they do strike first, the survivors in the Free World will forever remember that it was the orcs that destroyed the world.

For now, Ukraine will continue the fight but will have to fight on the defence until more military aid arrives.  The cities are being pounded by cruise missiles & drones, and Ukraine doesn’t have enough air defence systems to shoot them all down.  NATO countries need to donate more systems to protect the Ukrainian people and manufacture many more. 

It’s time to stop pretending this war doesn’t affect the rest of the world because it does.  If Ukraine falls, more European & NATO countries will be attacked.  The orc war machine needs to be degraded and destroyed.  This will take time, so I won’t be surprised if I’m here again in 2025 writing about the war’s third anniversary.  If NATO & the world want the war to be over, do the right thing and fully support Ukraine and its people’s fight for freedom & everlasting peace. 

Slava Ukraini!
