AN INFAMY NOBODY REMEMBERS

 I know. It is the ritual to remind ourselves of the ignominious attack on our Pacific Fleet and the various Army and Marine posts scattered around Oahu on 7 December 1941. Let us by all means remember those men who were caught altogether unready in all respects for the war that found them that Sunday morning in the last century in the last millennium. They and their commands and country were the unwitting victims of forces that had been placed into action by the ruling elite back in Washington, DC and the elites running things over in Japan and of course the foolish dregs of the formerly mighty European civilization. Those sailors, soldiers, marines and airmen had no idea that the embargoes laid against the Japanese Empire because of its long occupation and destruction of life in China and Korea were going to cost them so much, 'out of the blue' on that fine Sunday morning.

The infamy then was laid on the Empire of Japan for attacking without warning. So be it, that's how the weak attack the mighty. The weak will cast about for any advantage however temporary when contemplating an attack on a more powerful enemy. When you look at the events in hindsight it is easy to see that the United States by behaving in the way it did had indeed made itself an enemy in Japan. I've never really studied what the Japanese really expected to gain from that attack so I don't know what possessed them to launch it even knowing, and they had people that knew, that they were attacking an enormous potential for violence that had shown just hints of what it could do as it conquered a continent and waged war against its own self.

The current days of infamy trouble me far more because they show the collapse of all civilization and learning here in the United States and the rest of the West. The catastrophe that played out in Afghanistan with our own day of infamy where we left 14,000 Americans behind as we madly scrambled out of the country with the help of the Taliban as the government and people of Afghanistan turned on us in an instant is hard to forget but is already forgotten and unknown by 95% of those living in America today.

It's time to move back and motivate the politicians to do the sane things from now on and move to hold them and the bureaucrats accountable. What is happening in Ukraine is damning and everyone involved in sustaining the nightmare belief that somehow Ukraine could or ever could win a war against Russia should be turned over to the Ukrainians post-conflict for trial and sentencing. If that seems to harsh, then turn them over to the Russians. I'm good with either alternative. Consider, NATO allegedly exists to defend all of Western Europe from the Russia that is now, according to the idiots in the press, bogged down in a hopeless war against tiny unarmed little Ukraine. That being the case everyone should be asking themselves what the titanic capabilities of NATO would do to Russia if it decided to go all batshit crazy and attack. By any and all lights, NATO isn't looking too good right now. I certainly wouldn't invest a penny in it.

I see the petty wranglers of nonsense and misrule are arguing about spending another $149,000,000,000 on Ukraine (US Defense Contractors and Democratic Party Stalwarts) because the rethuglicans want to posture about our decades long ongoing border disaster and want some glittery fairy dust to sprinkle on the total inactivity by anybody from Government on our southern border. Sadly, it will end like it always does with the thugs 'compromising' with the democrats to give American Democrat Cronies another $157,000,000,000 in aid packets that we will have to borrow by having the Fed print it since nobody is buying our Treasury Notes anymore and we don't begin to have it laying around.

Things are looking pretty infamous all around these days.
