Right now is still a time to make peace.
Putin is not Hitler and he is not killing Jews and invading Poland and France, etc. And Putin is not Stalin, building the Berlin Wall, etc. I do not even think that Putin is as bad as Fidel Castro.
I think Putin is who he is from the time and place where he was born and raised. The Russians were taught by Stalin, etc, to hate Americans. And then we had the whole Cold War. That had an effect on Putin, that made Putin who he is. So, that is what we are dealing with.
It is a new world, and Putin is still stuck in the old world. We need to peacefully bring Putin into the new world.
Today the world wants peace and prosperity, we want stability and world trade.
Putin has some friends in Europe, he got along good with Silvio Berlusconi, Silvio is old now, he is 85, but maybe Silvio Berlusconi can talk some sense into Putin. Putin was also friends with King Juan Carlos of Spain, maybe he can talk some sense into Putin, Juan Carlos is 84, hopefully his brain is still sharp and maybe he can help.
We want peace, and we want money, and we want a good life style. People do not want war.
We can even send the Russians pot from the Philippines.
If it was Hitler, then I would want war, and I would be looking for ways to defeat Hitler, but Putin is NOT Hitler. And on the issue of Hitler, we have the CIA now so we have all of the information so that we can save lives and catch problems while they are small. And we have the United Nations.
Putin is just an old school KGB guy with his head all full of bullshit, we need to peacefully bring Putin into the modern world.
And we did improve relations since the fall of the USSR, and since the fall of the Berlin Wall. In 1991 Pantera played in Moscow, along with other bands. The young people in Russia all like American Rock and Roll. The young people in Russia love the USA and that is where our strength is. We need to get the young people to march for peace, and to protest for peace. And in a perfect world we could have a huge Bon Jovi concert in Moscow for peace right now.
Putin will accept the truth from the young people of Russia, hopefully, we need for the young people to demand peace.
And the young people are the future. We need to have a future of peace and prosperity.
Salute,
Tony V.
