      Matthew 24:6-13
      New International Version
      6 You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it that you are not alarmed. Such things must happen, but the end is still to come. 7 Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in various places. 8 All these are the beginning of birth pains.

      9 “Then you will be handed over to be persecuted and put to death, and you will be hated by all nations because of me. 10 At that time many will turn away from the faith and will betray and hate each other, 11 and many false prophets will appear and deceive many people. 12 Because of the increase of wickedness, the love of most will grow cold, 13 but the one who stands firm to the end will be saved.

    Dear Ukraine 🇺🇦,

    I am appalled by what has happened to your civilians. I feel the intense sorrow that loved ones have been lost, the fear of being under attack, and the anger of a senseless war being waged. A war with Russia is not an easy one, but I wish to fight it so you may maintain your freedom.

    With love and support,

      I hope Ukraine wins but I don’t count on it. I don’t want to die for this. If you want to go on your own accord that’s fine. Russia has the more they want them, and as for that matter. I have no urge to beat on the war drum as they aren’t even a NATO country. We are under no obligation to defend them as they are not in NATO. We need to focus on securing what we still have and stop looking so weak as a country and we have been recently in our diplomatic and military responses. For 10 years Russia’s been laughing at our sanctions and they’ll do the same thing they’ve done after Crimea at our sanctions and they will laugh at them and wave them off. We aren’t even particularly economically invested in Russia nor them us… But they can threaten our European allies with shutting off the oil and natural gas which might get some of them to fold. As of right now Russia holds most of the cards if not all of them.

    • Brenton Thomas says:

    • Virtual Hidden Bot says:

      If Russia gets sanctions from being allowed to trade with the U.S Dollar then the Russian citizens could starve because Russia wouldnt be able to Trade globally every country relies on the U.S Dollar
