As the world inches toward WW3, bizarre narratives escalate.

 UK PLEDGES SECURITY GUARANTEE FOR UKRAINE

WHILE UNABLE TO FIND CREW MEMBERS FOR ITS AIRCRAFT CARRIER


Overnight we have seen Iran engaged in missile attacks on U.S. and Israeli bases in Iraq. We also see increased attacks on Yemen by the U.S. and UK. Concern  is growing that it will now take only one major misstep and we will see escalation in Ukraine and the middle east. It appears we are not far from events soon taking over any attempt to cool down this crisis. A destroyed U.S. ship or multiple deaths of U.S. service members in Iraq will demand retaliation and possibly a call for ground troops in Yemen and attacks on Iran. Such an escalation will likely lead to war, disruption of oil from the gulf and world economic depression in short order. 

In Ukraine, security guarantees by Uk and now Canada are bizarre developments. What does this mean for the UK whose entire military is less than 100,000. It has been unable to send an aircraft carrier to the Red sea because it has a severe enlistment shortage and not enough sailors to send these vessels to sea. Do they really believe that making such a commitment to Ukraine will discourage further offensive action from Russia? 

At the same time, it appears the U.S. with its own enlistment crisis is verging on a wider mideast war, that once started, will be very hard to extinguish. A war that will require conscription and resources that actually do not exist. 

Present political leaders seem to believe that their manufactured narratives can create perceptions that will lead to some reality of success, even when such results are impossible, borders on insanity. The kind of insanity that is on the verge of igniting a global war. 

It is past time for members of the U.S. Congress and Uk parliament to intervene and demand these leaders are accountable and restrained in their thoughtless zeal. It appears these leaders have moved the world into a very dangerous place and they have no idea how to exit.
