   While #American support for #Ukraine is still strong, there are some fractures among members of the #Republican and #democratic parties that are beginning to surface. An analyst told us those splits could deepen as other important #policy decisions compete for attention with Ukraine. VOA footage by Saqib Ul Islam.

     @NMBA @VeroBalderasI Agreed.

     "Democracy is a better idea than fascism, but the liberal international order does not exist because it is a better idea. It exists because the democratic powers built bigger and better guns, killed millions of fascists, overthrew fascist governments, tried and hanged fascist leaders, and liberated or coercively democratized former fascist countries.... The liberal international order rests on a founding act of violence, of which the Normandy campaign was a crucial part. It was justified, of course, because it was also an act of self-defense against the fascists’ attempts to found their preferred world order on the rest of us."

     They were the same fools that delayed the entry of US forces into WW2, causing millions and millions of excess deaths, and also the same as the nazi sympathizers that were the cancerous enemy within during WW2. This is a war for democracy against terrorist lead fascism. They need to be called out for their dangerous folly.

     Erin Conroy repeated this.
