Reflections From a Murky Pond

The idea of combining an anti-tank mine with a robot vacuum is hilarious. It’s also a bit terrifying. And… it’s probably either already out there in our military’s arsenal or in development. After all, iRobot, the makers of the Roomba, pretty much got their start designing and producing robots for the US military.

Think about it. Either RC or, given that shape recognition software is quite mature technology, autonomous Doombas that can be set in place to await enemy vehicles could easily be done – assuming they haven’t already quietly been so. And then there’s the obvious antipersonnel variant that would mount a flip-up M18A1 Claymore mine or a set of 6 Miniature Grenade Launchers (MGL) such are used with the M7 Spider networked anti-personnel munitions system.

I can hear it now, “Alexa, I’d like to destroy that ZTZ-99A now.”

At first, second, or even third glance, Biden’s eagerness to engage in what seems all to likely to end up as nuclear war between Russia and the US makes little to no sense. But, I think we should all look a bit deeper into the muddled and rotting psyche of the deranged octogenarian the Dems “worked” so hard to install as POTUS.

Creepy Uncle Joe is a gamer of sorts, and he’s old enough to have played and possibly been good at Atari’s Missile Command. Thus, given the damaged and erratic state of his brain, he might think that nuclear war would play out this way. Oh Hell! Biden’s so lost in the morass of his senility – and he was never that bright in the first place – he might even believe in President Reagan’s stunning and stunningly effect lie, the “Star Wars Program” and conflate it with Missile Command.

Sadly, this isn’t just sarcastically funny. It’s also disturbing plausible. Still though, that’s better than the alternative, that Biden is a dementia-ridden old man close to Judgement and Sentencing who doesn’t want the world to outlive him.

Biden Makes This Less Funny… And A Lot More Likely

Yeah, there’s core of ironic humor in the thought of Biden and NATO “asking” Germany to move their military through Poland to threaten and possibly engage Russia. That humor, however, is greatly lessened by the horrific fact that Biden is making it far more likely that this – and WW3 – will happen… and that it will be an at least limited nuclear exchange.

With Biden – or his handlers/nursemaids – choosing to escalate his war against Putin by both sending the 101st Airborne Division to the Ukrainian border and moving our newer, upgraded B61-12 tactical nuclear weapons to NATO bases in Europe, jokes about Germany being involved in a land war in Poland against the Russians aren’t as funny as they used to be.

And, with President Trump officially running for POTUS in 2024, the likelihood that Biden and Co. will willfully cross that lethal Rubicon and start the next major war became much more likely. Biden, after all, claims that he only ran for office to remove President Trump and has declared him and any and all who support him terrorists and existential threats to democracy. It seems horrifically plausible that Biden would prefer WW3 and the destruction of America over “loosing its soul” to President Trump and American patriots.

And, oh yes! Let us never forget that Biden and the majority of Democrats either believe that President Trump was elected through “Russian Collusion” or are in position where they have to repeat and abide by that shibboleth. Hence, Biden’s war against Putin is somewhat of a proxy war against President Trump and the patriots who elected him (Twice so far?)

I mean, don’t get me wrong; Germany being asked to move through and perforce occupy parts of Poland in order to fight Russia is funny. Biden just makes it less funny and a lot more worrisome.

In some ways it’s interesting how little it took for Democrats to completely invert their opinions upon war, even unto the point of risking World War 3 and a nuclear apocalypse. All it took was for President Trump, who they screamed again and again would start WW3, to be replaced by Biden, who has actually moved us close to that point with his ill-advised, poor considered, and destructive personal war upon Russia’s Vladimir Putin.

On the other hand, it’s ultimately boring because it’s so expected of a turnaround by the near-mindless liberals and progressives who make up so much of the Democrats’ base. In what passes for their minds Trump and Putin are linked because, despite all the Democrat and Deep State evidence presented otherwise, they still believe that President Trump only won the 2016 election due to Russian interference. Hence, Putin is their enemy, second only to President Trump.

Meh, Palestinians are complaining about the deaths of their females and young, who they consistently use as shields just so that they can complain to the international anti-Semite community about the deaths.

For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.

— Malachi 4:1 (KJV)

As far as I’m concerned, and I hope as far as anyone of good character is concerned, all this means to me is that the Israelis can save a bit of ordinance while protecting their children from the threat Palestinian young are and will be.
