Ben Hodges is a role model for us all. He has taken all of his skills, experience, connections and friends in high places and put them all to the service of good at the time when they are most needed. He leads charities and activists, directing their efforts, whilst travelling the globe, speaking to anyone who will listen, explaining what is needed, what is really happening, why it’s so important and, most importantly, helping the world to understand why each and every one of us has a stake in this fight.
This is, after all, the World War Three that you get when neither side is willing to use nukes. Putin is getting his maximum use out of them now, with empty, meaningless threats, to which the world wide press routinely overreacts. But they will NEVER be fired off by Putin . . . not, “deliberately,” at any rate. I can promise that. It’s the only certainty I have. However, mistakes are common in Russia, as their track record with nuclear weapons mistakes and nuclear power disasters are a matter of record. Therefore, it is in the west’s interests that Russia is roundly and swiftly defeated.
To that end, we must ALL contact our representatives and demand the long range missiles and fixed wing aircraft Ukraine needs to WIN this war, and KEEP the peace thereafter! Don’t let anyone tell you that writing to your representatives is a waste of time. They’re wrong about that.
Slava Ukraine! 🇬🇧🇺🇦✌️
