The Kremlin’s Leaked Peace Plan Proves That Russia Is Weaker Than It Seems

RantWoman considers this video important and insightful.

In particular, attention to details others miss, willingness to game out motivations, and cutting through social media clamor and pressure, of which there is PLENTY

Enough said for now.

The US war in Afghanistan: continuing to bite the US in the butt.

RantWoman herewith extracts opinions from the carefully curated mishmash of YouTube items about the shooting of two WV national guard members in Washington DC the day before Thanksgiving. MAYBE RantWoman will be able to weave her observations into more carefully edited commentary. But for now, let 'em rip.

1. Short version: these shootings are most definitely the US war on Afghanistan coming back to bite us.

2. The WV National Guard troops would not be in WV to get shot at were it not for the President having time to appeal a judge's ruling that said deployment is illegal and unnecessary.

3. See videos about West Virgina, both the ones about how the current administration is very specifically undoing efforts by the past administration to address WV issues and the HUGE impact of cuts to SNAP and Medicaid, but also the governor's press conference about how "everyone" is supporting each other. (RantWoman is not sure she included the video of Spc. Backstrom's boyfriend summarizing mixed feelings about her willingness to go and the mission or "rules of engagement."

4. The US refuses to be a party to the convention banning child soldiers. One reason of course is to facilitate enlistment in US armed forces before volunteers turn 18. Another reason rarely spoken about: the CIA recruits idealistic / fanatical young people for death squads. Or at least that has been the practice in Afghanistan. And then the US quite appropriately admits as refugees people who have risked their lives to assist the US. Please note: RantWoman approves of this practice even when RantWoman vehemently disapproves of the war in question. Also, admitting families to the US is never all that is needed, especially if people who have assisted the US in Afghanistan have at least as much reason to have severe PTSD as the US troops.

6. RantWoman will be curious to learn more about whatever set the shooter off on his drive across the country armed only with a pistol journey.

7. RantWoman does not believe that one person's or even more than one person's severe PTSD is a reason to round up everyone from Afghanistan who has come to the US. Add that point to all the other reasons RantWoman is disgusted by the current mass deportation fashion.

8. RantWoman will be holding in the Light both the guard member who survived the shooting and the shooter's wife and 5 kids

What kind of wimpy ass God folds in the face of empirical psychology research?

RantWoman is posting this item for illustration purposes. Enough said.

Turning Point USA Targets Instructor After Student Receives F

I agree with you: the student had a number of options for both doing the assignment as instructed and presenting Biblical views. I am not sure what is Biblical about endorsing bullying but If she referenced both points from the article and some understanding of Biblical teaching as she understands them, I think she could have earned a decent grade for doing the assignment as instructed, even though she is missing the point of the empirical research. People are SUPPOSED to have their views challenged, maybe refined, maybe even reaffirmed in college and on of my beefs with Charlie Kirk is that he trivializes and glosses over the reality of these challenges.

Competence? Would Sarah Beckstrom still be here if...?

Interesting YouTube Channel. Read the description.

RantWoman is not trying to troubleshoot difficulty posting the video as usual but here is the link.

National Guard shooting: could Sarah Beckstrom still be here if we had more competent leadership?

THANK YOU for making important points no one else is making. Let's assume the guard members who were shot are idealistic young adults. To me their personal views don't matter beyond willingness to sign up for the national Guard. Yeah, they're from WV and yeah, it might be reasonable to make assumptions. Other points outweigh that. The guard is still in DC after a judge ruled the deployment is illegal and unnecessary because the administration is appealing, ie using every court thread they can pull to avoid complying with the court order. The guard is still in DC because President #StableGenius IGNORED strong recommendations from his own advisors that deploying them the way they have been deployed would expose them to exactly the kind of individual grievance the shooter brought to the picture. The other focus is on the shooter, his role working with the US in Afghanistan, and how well he was vetted when granted asylum. The shooter is one of 70,000 Afghans who came to the US. He is probably not the only one with really bad PTSD though who knows what made him snap and drive all the way across the US armed only with a .357 magnum. I don't know much about guns, but I don't think that would be the best option if he intended mass murder. To me in a very real way the DC shooting is all the atrocities associated with US role in Afghanistan and the subsequent Taliban takeover coming right to our shores. I am VERY sorry for the young woman who was killed and everyone close to her, but the way the current administration is handling the whole picture stinks to high heaven.
