After years, how long, 5-7 as Morris indicates, my paper on the foreign policy of

[Joseph Tracy]

 Frequently, when you have run out of arguments, which never takes too long, you come up with this pathetic ad hominem crap. Sure, I am comparable to Henry Kissinger because I oppose the provocative and unneccessary advancement of Nato into Ukraine, and I support some version of the only peaceable protocols that all parties have agreed to. 
   I am not a nation or a political party and I do not have a “foreign policy” and neither do you. Nobody with guns cares what you or I think. I have opinions and arguments to support them and values from which they come. I support the freedom of human expression for all and have theoretical constitutional rights as an American. But let’s be real, the constitution is not the basis of US behavior and is interpreted so loosely as to allow torture, censorship, wars without congressional approval, numerous violations of  4th amendment privacy rights,   and the murder of citizens by the government without trial. Is there a higher court of justice, a Karmic wheel, Divine law? Maybe, maybe not, I am not in a position to say and I doubt you are. I tend to act and think like there is moral meaning, but that does not stop the Kissingers or Hitlers or my My Lai killers. Jesus did not stop them, Karma did not stop them at least on this plane. Should people have courage to stand up against violence? That is an individual choice. Not many do. The thing about rights is that they are a 2 way street. If the rights of some trample the rights of others this makes a mockery of the concept. That is the problem in Ukraine. You are wrong that I want vengeance, I want people to stand up for  mother earth and for world peace against all the great political powers. If Putin decides to allow Nato into Ukraine I will be surprised but not disappointed. I will assume he thinks a war with the US is worse than the threat of more weaponry close to Russian borders. He will also probably put permanent military emplacements along the border to counter Nato in the event of an unacceptable assault. For Ukraine and the US I think expecting Putin to back down is a bad bet, and possibly a disastrous bet. The US was not going to back down in the Cuban misile crisis and so far Russia has held firm to its regional interests of Crimea, the Donbass and not Nato in Ukraine.  

 Persons who hold opinions you dislike are attacked with similar ad hominem crap as you once again direct at me. Especially those who don’t kiss the debauched moldy butt of the Democratic war machine or who otherwise stand outside secure cultural boundaries and are provocative or funny to read. I will be once again and permanently directing your emails to the trash and will not be missing them in the least.
