Note the report in column 5: "Will Sink Everything Approaching England, Nazis Warn U.S."
(President Roosevelt, having signed the Lend-Lease bill, caused the Nazis to claim that they would sink everything sailing for England. (Vladimir Putin has made the same remarks about the west sending arms to Ukraine.) This was of course, bluster, Hitler's worst fear was that the United States would enter the war on England's side. The dictator was right, he began to lose when the U.S. entered the war. As it turns out, sanctions don't stop dictators from waging war on other states. Did not stop Hitler, did not stop the Japanese, has not stopped Iran from trying to develop a nuclear weapon. The embargo (sanctions) against Cuba, put in place by John F. Kennedy, did not break Cuba. In fact, the Cuban embargo was broken by the United States, more to the point, the communist sympathizer Barack Hussein Obama and his Vice-President....Joe Biden. Everyone knows that sanctions have NEVER stopped a war, and they did not stop and will not stop Putin. Biden signed Ukraine's final death warrant today when he said today; "...we will not fight the third World War in Ukraine." That one sentence tells Putin everything he wants to know, the U.S.A. will stand by and watch Ukraine be destroyed, and will not stop Putin.

Just keep in mind that the U.S.A. stood by and watched England almost fall to the Nazis. While we did send weapons and supplies and provided intelligence, we did not send any troops until Japan attacked the U.S.A. Since Russia is not likely to directly attack the U.S.A. there will be no fighting force to stop the carnage in Ukraine, Biden just confirmed that. So, you can sympathies with the people of Ukraine, you can feel sorry for the people of Ukraine, you can think, oh what a terrible thing is happening in Ukraine, but be aware that NOBODY is going to do ANYTHING to save them. You can watch them die on your TV in the comfort of your home with the knowledge that Putin can kill as many of them as he wants, because Biden and NATO are scared of Russia and Putin.

There is only ONE solution to the war that Putin has started, that solution is to kill his army, there is NO OTHER SOULTION. Nothing else will work and the USA and NATO are going to have to do it, nobody else can. It is a risk, a big risk, but if Putin is willing to use a nuclear weapon, he will use one sooner or later anyway, so we will have to face that. Putin must know that we still live under the M.A.D. rule. (Mutually Assured Destruction) Which means if he fires on us, we fire on him. I don't want my children or grandchildren to die, I don't want my parents and siblings to die, and I don't want to die, but we have to stop Putin and take the risk. In reality we have two choices, kill Putin's army or live under his rules. I say that because, if he is not stopped because we are afraid he will use a nuclear weapon, all the mongoloid midget of Moscow has to do is make the nuclear threat again and the west will back down and watch another country fall.)
