  It's a good question, but I think that there's something to be said for the idea that war is the last resort.

  Good men must be willing to stand up and fight if that's what's required, but at the same time, Good Men must also recognize that violence must be used only as that last resort, with an abundance of caution leading up to that point.

  You can't put the genie back in the bottle, and there's a good chance that even if you win, you still lose. Just look back to world war ii, you can say that the allied powers of Europe won the war, but in reality it was the powers that at the least exposure to the war that won. The United States became a superpower in large part because anyone who might rival their power was bombed back into the Stone age. Sweden in Switzerland were both neutral, and ended up becoming some of the most powerful economic workhorses in the region for a very long time.

  That is the video I was talking about. They talk about war... I don't know. I also don't know anything about the inner workings of the Russian Orthodox church. The Pope called Biden a good Catholic and we all know that is B.S. and the the Pope isn't even a good Catholic if he is Catholic at all.

  I do know Mary. If he was a Satanist he wouldn't be genuflecting to Mary and Jesus. He certainly wouldn't kiss those images. He couldn't. There are stories of some of the worse criminals still having an inexplicable devotion to Mary. Mary calls them out on it. So this doesn't mean he is innocent, it does mean that he isn't totally sold out to evil.

    he's a schismatic tho at least materially

    unfortunately I am more cynical and think that just like Biden can "go to church" it unfortunately doesn't mean much, although from watching the linked vid I can see that he does seem to try to act devout

    They profess that they know God: but in their works they deny him; being abominable, and incredulous, and to every good work reprobate. (Titus 1:16)

  I don't know what Putin is after. He could be greedy, he could want to liberate parts of the old soviet republic from the globalist elites that want to turn everyone into a faggot. I've heard both from him so it could be both.

  I saw him genuflecting in front of an image of Jesus as he kissed it. You can be a bastard and still do those things - but you cannot be a Satanist and still do those things. That leaves me some hope for his soul.

  Putin didn't call me a deplorable. Putin didn't call ma a white supremacist. Putin didn't flood my country with 'immigrants.' Putin didn't try and kill me with a mandatory death jab.

  As far as I know, Putin doesn't fuck little kids.

  That is 5 points for Putin and - 5 points for most of the people in D.C.

    It's a complicated consideration for sure, much more than "cops and robbers" black and white, many shades of lesser evils

    Putin is a typical oldschool macho man, a nationalist, a patriot, a gangster. He indulges in murder and intimidation, but not perversion, that's for the west.

      Could be, he is ex-KGB. Then again Bush was ex CIA AND killed Kennedy, probably was in charge of getting Reagan shot as well.

        That's a lot of spiracy in one sentence.
