Russia/Ukraine

Currently it's being used as a laundromat for illegally obtained wealth that cannot enter the monetary system in any other way. (Sex slaves, bribes, piracy and narcotics)

Thanks Angela.
You are correct that Russia is wrong in the conflict...conscription is basically slavery no matter what shade of lipstick you put on it.
And you are correct with that the other wealthy nations did use Ukraine to perform all sorts of dirty, illegal deeds. (One reason why Putin invaded) Currently it's being used as a laundromat for illegally obtained wealth that cannot enter the monetary system in any other way. (Sex slaves, bribes, piracy and narcotics)

The average person in Ukraine is innocent in this stuff...they are just trying to make a life for themselves. But the leadership made many incompetent and often self-serving choices. Their corruption level was high and affecting many global commodity markets. Zalinski was doing his best to clean up the Government...but it's not as easy done as said. Compromises were made because it is impossible to do without cooperation. Of course Putin is finger pointing the whole way to try and elevate his low moral position and make his ideals of the former USSR necessary.

Putin is not Stalin...Putin might idolize him but he hasn't committed those sorts of atrocities yet.

We have no idea what Putin has done. We have heard about him poisoning his opposition, killing his generals, And friends alike. Mass murder? Time will tell! What amazes me is how many westerners don't know what Stalin did during the Holomodor. In fact, a great number of people I have talked to have never heard of Stalin! Eastern Europe is a complete mystery to many people. I knew about the culture through my grandparents, and I knew the Holodomor, too! But since I started studying Ukrainian, a year ago, I've also been reading history books by many scholars. My dad did say that Ukraine was invaded from various directions since it was founded. Except for the Carpathian Mountains, to the south, Ukraine is a flat plain, or steppes. Invaders would sweep through, pillaging & burning their way across Ukraine. Ukrainians became fierce defenders of their country, & that is how the Cossacks were formed.

And if the Ukrainian leaders are corrupt, I can only point to Biden and Trudeau as equally, or even more corrupt. The whole WEF agenda has invaded our countries, I cannot imagine anything more evil and corrupt today. They are the ones using Ukraine, not vice versa.

Yes, many people are not aware that Stalin was worse than even Hitler, and more broadly, that Communism was worse than Nazism. There was a US General who said: "maybe we fought the wrong enemy" when he saw the Commies were as bad or worse than the Nazis. Here is what a Soviet newspaper admitted about Stalin, that he was responsible for 20 Million Deaths: "Major Soviet Paper Says 20 Million Died As Victims of Stalin

A Soviet weekly newspaper today published the most detailed accounting of Stalin's victims yet presented to a mass audience here, indicating that about 20 million died in labor camps, forced collectivization, famine and executions."

Part of that, as you mention, was the Holodomor: "The Holodomor (Ukrainian: Голодомо́р, romanized: Holodomor, IPA: [ɦolodoˈmɔr];[2] derived from морити голодом, moryty holodom, 'to kill by starvation'),[a][3][4][5] also known as the Terror-Famine[6][7][8] or the Great Famine,[9] was a man-made famine in Soviet Ukraine from 1932 to 1933 that killed millions of Ukrainians. The Holodomor famine was part of the wider Soviet famine of 1932–1933 which affected the major grain-producing areas of the country.[10] ...
Ukraine was one of the largest grain-producing states in the USSR, and as a result was hit particularly hard by the famine.[10] Early estimates of the death toll by scholars and government officials vary greatly.[19] A joint statement to the United Nations signed by 25 countries in 2003 declared that 7–10 million died.[20][21] However, current scholarship estimates a range significantly lower, with 3.5 to 5 million victims.[22][23][24][25][26] The famine's widespread impact on Ukraine persists to this day.[22] Since 2006, the Holodomor has been recognized by Ukraine[27] alongside 15 other countries, as a genocide against the Ukrainian people carried out by the Soviet regime.[28]" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holodomor

Yes, this is why I think comparing these world leaders to cartels or drug lords or mafiosos is appropriate. Hitler was evil, so was Stalin, Putin is evil, so is Zelensky, so is NATO, so is Biden. Many people hated Trump because they said he sounded like a thug. The leaders are all thugs who can put up a front of being dignified and polite.

Do not forget Trump in your list.

Regarding Trump, I don't agree that he was bad.

"Death solves all problems - no man, no problem."

-Joseph Stalin

Do not think that such nihilism is not abundantly common at the very top of politics/government/corporations.
Include the middle and bottom as well.

No Jesus.....no life.

Here is Trump praise "Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ". As the Bible says, no one can say "Jesus is Lord" without the Holy Spirit.


Hi ZNP. Well, that verse means God is All-Good, and the Source of all Goodness. It doesn't mean others cannot be good Christians, surely, otherwise the Word of God would not say in Acts 11:24: "24 He was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and faith, and a great number of people were brought to the Lord." about Barnabas. So God is All-Good, and those who follow Him well and are filled with His Spirit are meant to be good like Him to shine His glory everywhere by good works (cf. Mat 5:16: "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.")

CV5, agreed. Atheism/Godlessness and the Nihilism it leads to it's very common among lib dems, and even some godless/worldly "conservative" (in name only/or on fiscal issues only) republicans, who don't care about God and moral issues. Thankfully, however, others are strongly conservative, pro-life, pro-family, God/Christ-loving etc and I believe Trump is one of them.

The only solution to Murderous Thug Stalin and his Atheism and Nihilism etc is a deeply lived personal Faith in Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, a longing for the Kingdom of God to come, a resolution to fight evil everywhere, and work for the Triumph of God and goodness: "Do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good." (Rom 12:21)

God Bless.

I have no issue with anyone being happy with Trump for many reasons. Economy was good, no war, appointed pro life judges, kept his promises, etc.

My only concern is that they confuse Trump with salvation. I don't see Trump bringing salvation but rather judgement.

I believe that what is happening is the fulfillment of many prophecies.

1. We are seeing a repeat of Haman's coup that was exposed by Esther and Mordecai.

2. We are seeing a fulfillment of the days of Lot, this election will prove beyond any doubt that our government is rotten to the core.

3. We are seeing the fulfillment of days of Jonah who warned the evil city of Nineveh to repent. Yes, God relented, but that was after Jesus' resurrection, it has been 40 jubilees since then and we have seen their repentance was superficial.

4. We are also seeing the fulfillment of the days of Noah. Chesvan 17 is the day of the flood, it is also Nov 11th. The election is Nov 8th. If we have 3 days of darkness after that (like those people in Sodom struck with blindness trying to find the door to rape Lot) then fire falling on the 11th would be a very nice fulfillment of the Lord's word that the next time it won't be by water but by fire.

No one confuses Trump with salvation. But we need someone who will stand up against progressives and tie a knot in their tail. But only God knows the next move. We all may not been here for the next big election the way things are going.

No one? I have been to quite a few rallies.

Don't get it, Zelensky is Jew, how can he hold with this?!

Haven't myself, but my sister has. Are you speaking literally or in what manner do you mean?
