Castigating Beneficent Putin

uncaptioned

One is entitled to ask a question whose 

response could go far in solving the shocking

reality that a universal sense of moral justice

appears to have dissolved within the West.

If you are Russian, and most particularly if

your name is Vladimir Putin the world has

turned into an ugly place of vilification and

censure. Aimed not at the entities responsible

for upsetting the world order and threatening

starvation and malnutrition in the developing

world, but at a superior human whose only

interest in intervening in the affairs of a neighbour

is to save it from its steady decline into political

freedom, offering instead the gracious offices of

the Russian Federation. But no, the arrogant

refusal of Ukraine's government to step down

and allow its people to welcome benevolent

Russia has created millions of refugees, tens of

thousands of deaths, destruction on a vast scale

of human and infrastructure waste. The kindly

intentions of Russia met with surly denial! A

puzzlingly shameful, discordant discourtesy.
