God Blessed us all with their Battle Courage for understand this my fellow American Mercado (whether by law or heart, you are an American, now Follow US too Freedom.) The So Called Heroes, the Ukrainian Fighter, stopped World War 3, for if they fell easy, instead of putting up such a Fight for Freedom! China would of already Invaded Taiwan an actual Red Line because shutting the world off from Chips, and going into Complete War Time Production would start levelling the US beyond clear advantage, and since the US and Japanese Forces can Decimate any Chinese Landing Force and Hold China back to working in on them by themselves, as multiple fold more US Forces are put into the Theater, and UK - EU Forces also steam pile into the place. Russia just showed China their little Taiwan invasion has to be huge and will turn the whole of the world against them, something they lied to themselves wouldn't happen, it Showed China the US and others will get engaged to some degree at minimum and they didn't even think we'd do that, it showed Taiwan they can fight and win, and they have the home Feild advantage, it showed them we will support them, and it showed the EU Russia is a Joke and they can deploy nearly all their forces to the Pacific! Listen, this was supposed to be the start of WW3! And Ukraine just stuffed them! (By God's Will) Russia was supposed to Steam through Ukraine and start invading NATO to the mountains past Ukraine under the Threat of Nukes as China launched it's Taiwan Invasion! Listen the Virus, that was Step 2 in this, it just didn't work as well as they wanted. They wanted to greatly Damage the World's Economy trying to Degrade US, than with their Spy's to Bot Farms and Money infecting Western Leaders to Contorting the Public mostly on the Far Right & Far Left get US in Civil Conflict to War with ourselves, so China and Russia and their little friends like Iran or North Korea (India and Turkey???? Wouldn't surprise me) can start invading, as Europe is Collasped by a lack of energy and held out of the Conflict by the Threat of Russia, as Russia Expands to it's choke points the USSR held, and China the 1st Island Chain and Beyond... But that didn't quite happen did it. The Wests issues are Underground USSR Agents and Chi-Coms within US and their Useful Idiots trying to drive US to War with ourselves, and making a fool of US. They got you people Caring more about Cross Dressers and Drag Queens, or getting their mental ill useful idiots in Positions of power over children to convince them of that, but stop looking down to the shit they made you step in, and look forward at what's before you, and it's them! I know thy Enemies! And I want them Viciously Destroyed! It's US or them! So I will take no Piety in their Pains, after the Pains they caused US. Only by God's Good Grace's has the Nukes not started to Fly, because of one thing, and one thing alone, the Fighting Spirit for Freedom from the Ukrainian! And what no one gets what's been really on the line, even the Ukrainians Don't get it, they think they are fighting to save their Nation, but no my friend, my Fellow American by Birth or Spirit, they are Fighting to Save US all, for everything that was and will be, from the Nuclear Oblivion and Biological Warfare that the Asian Powers have been plotting on US, on us all! Now, we must Clear out the Enemies within, and Crush the Asia Powers back into the 3rd World, so they cannot Challenge US again!
