The Conspiracy Theorist – Ukraine Edition

So, I’m going to stop calling myself a Conspiracy Theorist and start calling my theories “Spoiler Alerts”. This one has to do with the war declared on Ukraine by Russia. While the whole world is claiming to stand with Ukraine and condemn Putin, I’m feeling something a little off about the whole thing.

Why is the current potato in chief backing Ukraine? He put sanctions on Russia, banned oil from Russia, etc. But, why? And why is Putin really attacking Ukraine? It doesn’t satisfy me to just conclude that he’s a bad man and he just wants their land, as stated so eloquently by Kamala Harris.

I’m thinking back to our removal from Afghanistan. That was a blatant disaster and caused death to our troops and Afghani civilians. We left a gazillion dollars worth of equipment in the hands of the Taliban and the only reason given was that it would have cost more to take our stuff home with us? So, now, in light of the oil issues we are having because of Russia and Ukraine we’re having to make deals with other countries to get the 10% of oil that was supplied by Russia. Afghanistan has oil. The Taliban has our stuff and control of the oil. Did we pay off the Taliban with weapons and tanks and stuff because we knew we would be striking up a deal with them later? Was it possible that we knew that Russia was going to invade Ukraine? Why was our government so quick to stand with Ukraine? Why would Putin declare war now, in the middle of a pandemic (that’s another blog) and not 4 years ago before Biden took (literally) office and before there was a virus spreading all over the world? (Quick mention: Ukraine has a very low vaccination rate while the US has mandates. Ukrainians are being issued weapons to defend themselves while the US government wants to disarm our citizens. We are helping(?) Ukraine to defend their borders while our country has opened ours and allowed all manner of whatever-the-heck in and giving them free everything when they get here.)

People like Joe Biden and George Soros (and many other leftists) are making statements of support for Ukraine. Typically, if either of those people makes a statement, I immediately believe the opposite. Why should we listen to them now? They have made it evident that they will do whatever they can to make our country Socialist. Soros is all about population control. So, why are we in the same boat with them on this particular issue? Something about that sits very wonky.

So here’s my prediction, as imperfect and lacking in details as it may be: There is a very good reason, one that makes a lot more sense than “I’m bigger and badder than you and I’m taking your stuff” for Putin to declare war on Ukraine. Could be that he is trying to destroy something that needs to be destroyed. Somebody knows.

It’s brutal and unfortunate that so many innocent civilians are caught in the crossfire. The Ukrainian people are suffering and dying because of whatever this is and that is deplorable. But, something in my gut tells me that we’re being led astray… again. And until some sense is made of it all, I can’t say I stand with Ukraine. I hurt for their people, but I am holding out on picking a side. And as bass-ackward as it sounds, I’m looking for Putin to make it make sense. We’ve got more of a chance of getting answers from him than we are the morons that are pretending to be in charge around here. (That last state of the union address was like a Southpark episode.)
