Happy End to Iran - Contra - Reagan Era

 CNN: Reports that Lt. Colonel Oliver North ( Marine Retired ) has married his former Iran - Contra Secretary Fawn Hall.

Lets Get Real:

Thus happly end to Iran - Contra, the couple were widowers, thus gives us all hope of finding love later on in life.  As President Reagan stated Ollie North is an American hero, he kept the Contra Freedom fighters going in Nicaragua by selling arms to Iran by and diverting profits to the freedom fighters.  When the news broke, Ms Hall destroyed documents in the shredder to cover the operation.  The right thing to do at the time, whatever the Democrats said at the time.   The operation was a costly mistake for President Reagan, it took time to recover from, in the end Bush 41 won in 1988, the American people forgave the Gipper, thus 1st Vice President to succeed his boss in over a hundred years, with the exception of assassination or resignation.

French PM ousted in No Confidence Vote - Ukraine - Russian War

 BBC News:  Reports in its 5.59pm post that the French Parliament has OUSTED President Macron's PM.

Lets Get Real:

The problem is like Bush 41 and Margaret Thatcher, politicians who were see by the Voters as more interested in foreign affairs than the costs of every day life, and the French like to protest on the streets.  This remind's one of the 1930's when governments did not last long and Hitler was on the move, now we have Putin in the Ukraine, can France match the rhetoric of Marcon as part of the coalition of willing, Putin must be rubbing his hands with glee.  The Ukraine will be worried.

Trump ready for second stage of sanctions - Trump47

Sky News: Reports that President Trump is ready for the second round of sanctions against Russia after it bombed the main Government building in Kyiv.

Lets Get Real:

We shall see if Trump acts, so far hot air out of the Oval Office, how many more people have to be killed before the US does something.  POTUS has appeased Putin through out his 2nd term, the Kremlin must laugh every time that Trump makes a threat against Russia.  The WORLD awaits with beated breath for the next statement from Trump, NOT.  

What is in a Name - Department of Defence or War - Trump 47

 The Hill: Reports " Trump blames ‘wokey’ Defense Department for US losing wars in agency rebrand "

Lets Get Real:

On this issue this blog will give Trump 47 some benefit of the doubt, if his history is a bit Putin in content, in other words WRONG.   The US won in the First Gulf War, it removed Iraq from Kuwait, in the 2nd Gulf War the US won the War but lost the peace in Iraq, the failure in Afghanistan was down to President Biden and his obsession with getting out, on the other hand, the US had been in Afghanistan for over 20 years and the Kabul Government fell over the weekend, the Saigon Government survived for two and half years before falling in 1975, and that was the fault of the Democrats in the US, who would not fund a rescue package.   Thus the far in the 2nd Trump term, the US has not gone to war, just the be the lap dog to Putin. 

No NATO Troops in Ukraine - Putin - Ukraine - Russia War

 BBC News: Reports " Putin rejects Western security in Ukraine, warning troops would be target "

Lets Get Real:

The Russians are still being stubborn  that there can be no NATO troops in the Ukraine should there be a ceasefire.  This is time for the US President to be firm with Putin and the Kremlin, they do not have a VETO on what troops the West might send in to the Ukraine, they are the security guarantees that Kyiv will need to agree to a CEASEFIRE or PEACE DEAL with Russia.  Let's get real, Putin will try this again in the future, he cannot be trusted, his word is no good, and Kyiv will never agree to a deal and should not agree to a deal without a NATO 5 clause that would bring the West to the defence of Ukraine.  The UK let down Poland in 1939 and after WW2 finished allowed Stalin to get his murderous hands on Poland and Easter Europe.  NEVER AGAIN! 

What will Trump do about Putin ? - Ukraine - Russia War

Sky News: Reports " Ukraine war latest: Trump says 'you'll see things happen' if he is unhappy with Putin decision .... Donald Trump issues a warning to Vladimir Putin, and says he expects to talk to him over the coming days. Earlier, Putin claimed there was "light at the end of the tunnel" for the conflict in Ukraine. "

Lets Get Real:

There have been rumours of late about the health of POTUS, the liberal media was not that concerned about President Biden and only noticed in his debate with President Trump.  One would suggest that Trump have a full medical to see if all is all right, NO US President would have appeased Putin the way Trump has, he seems his ego cannot take the fact that he was played by Putin, this has happened to Bush 43, Obama, and Trump in his first term.   The US must bring the Russian economy to its knees, make the Russians pay for the WAR, over a million dead and no mass demonstrations in the street, even the people of Imperial Russia managed that in 1917 and bought down the Tsar.  What has happened to the backbone of the Russian people, has decades of Tyranny under Soviet Regime and Putin made them cower in their homes. 

Ukraine Update - Ukraine - Russia War

BBC News: Reports " Putin has rejected calls for a truce and his troops have intensified attacks on Ukrainian cities. More than Russian 500 drones and 24 cruise missiles were launched on Wednesday night alone. "

Lets Get Real:

The new Axis of Evil that meet in China on the anniversary of the end of the WAR is Asia in 1945, it shows that the West is faced with Russia, China and North Korea as the counter to Western Democracy.  Trump has to get his head out of his backside and do something about Russia, they will not give up in till the US puts more weapons and men if needed on the front line in the Ukraine.  The Russians see Trump as a lap dog to Putin, the only way out for Putin is to win in the Ukraine, anything else and he faces a coup in Russia.  Thus Russians will only come to the peace table on their terms, a Ukraine that in many respects sees it back within the Russian fold, thus to prevent WW3, Europe must give security guarantees  to Ukraine, and in some way the US must face pressure to do the same.
