 Yeah, we knew that already.  Uncle has given several hundred billion
dollars to Ukraine.  Might as well set the money on fire and thrown it
in Atlantic.

 I would not have pegged Lynn as one of Putin's Useful Idiots.

 Given his book reviews are mostly prepper porn, one
should have expected it.  Lynn _wants_ to see the disintegration
of the United States.
 

He's also been beating "The Ukrainians should be part of Russia" drum for some time now.

Actually Russia should be part of the Ukrainian State if you
go back far enough in History. But the Ukrainian nation sparked Russia.
Kiev should be the capital. Most of Russian history started with Kiev.

This is incorrect. Ukraine and Russia should be part of the Swedish kingdom!
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rurik
According to the chronicle, Rurik was one of the Rus', a Varangian tribe. Most historians believe that the Rus' were of Scandinavian origin,[13] more specifically from what is currently coastal eastern Sweden around the eighth century.[14] According to the prevalent theory, the name Rus' is derived from an Old Norse term for "the men who row", from an older name for the Swedish coastal area of Roslagen.[15][16]

What Mr.McGuire seems to miss is that Hitler started WW II
with similar moves. Trump echoes Hitler with his demand for nations
to yield national sovereignty as with Panama, Mexico, Canada and
Denmark with Greenland. He unlike Putin who tried to sneak up on
take the Ukraine without formal notice of annexations and who
calls it a "Special Military Operation" instead of a war.
Of course I was a civilian child during WW II and just
knew what was broadcast and when I learned to read it took me
years to get back to paying attention to WW II. It was over by
then and Japan our West Coast bugaboo was recovering thanks to
the Korean War.
