I've been thinking that in order to end a war disguised as a special military operation to denazify Ukraine, one would need to get rid of the leaders of all of the main nations involved in the conflict. That would mean that they should get rid of Biden, Johnson, Zelensky and Putin almost at the same time. Since this is no game and I lack of military experience, my plan would probably fail and some of them could end up returning to power.

How could they prevent NATO or especially Russia from placing a puppet leader in Ukraine? Sadly, there is no precise or slick way to do that. Ukraine will remain poor after this war for quite some time. Even if it could receive loans to accelerate reconstruction, it would owe NATO or Russia so much money that it would wind up doing their bidding for a long period of time. Perhaps it could even last a whole century! Ask nations like Peru if you don't believe me.  

Probably Ukraine's neutrality and never join NATO nor a revived Pact of Warsaw. It's relatively easy to achieve this goal so it might be their best bet here.

On the other hand, both US and Russia would love to deal a devastating blow to its opponent. Since many of us grew up in the times of the former Soviet Union and the precursor of the European Union, we gotta be eagerly waiting to see who's the final winner of this conflict. Curiously, Europe is tamed or barely realizing they were unprepared for war. So would they admit they should have listened to Trump?  Probably not.

If US / NATO wins, we would think Ukraine and perhaps Russia could become fully democratic. (Just keep them out of Bidens' reach.)
If Russia wins, Putin will need to keep his minion rule Ukraine for the next couple of decades a la Lukashenko.

The other day I had been invited as a speaker at a local church to talk about Gog and Magog and what's happening in Ukraine as of late. It was uncomfortable to see some young people were falling asleep. I didn't pay too much attention to that and kept talking. At the end some people there called it a conference.

He, he. The truth is that I was only supposed to speak for about 20 to 30 minutes... I finished the exposition about 45 minutes later. I even had to use the rain that suddenly started pouring down as a lame joke, linked to one of my final key points there.

The only thing I can tell you for certain is that whoever paid attention might now think Putin is a villain or some precursor of the evil antichrist.  Nope, that wasn't my intention but I couldn't exonerate him of all liability at all.  The moron kept showing up on every news article about Ukraine, Sudan, and Israel. 

Hey! The Sudanese president asked Putin for help when US government wanted to judge him for committing crimes against humanity.  I couldn't make that up even if I had tried hard for months. Nor I had asked Putin to meet Iranian reps and Erdogan several times in the past few years, with the excuse of solving the never ending Syrian crisis. And nope, it's a still ongoing conflict. 
 I can't feel happy about that anyway. Being right about something isn't always as rewarding as one would have imagined in the first place. 

As of late, I've been watching several openings and endings of anime series. The list also includes covers that have been translated to English or Spanish. Add a few officially translated opening mashups as well.

Nah, I don't think it would make me rewatch stuff like Bleach or the like. What I hate about shonen anime, now that I am an adult, is how they overpowered their characters. Think about Strawberry's, I mean, Ichigo's final transformation or Gokuu's super saiyan blue or Naruto's nine tails. I just hope they won't depend on a single super destructive hit or special technique to win battles. You know, many not so famous or not so successful anime series (plus Dragon Ball) have resorted to such things before.

I do believe Naruto and Shippuuden suck because Naruto is a moron and yet, he manages to become the hokage or leader of his Village. He's possessed by a demon and he can still work as a ninja and later take care of internal affairs of that village just because. It sounds as if something is missing, even if Sasuke is there to deal with their ugly stuff on his behalf.

I wondered why some people disregarded anime like Dragon Quest: Dai's Adventures aka Dragon Warrior Daibouken. Yet, I am fully aware their characters look pretty much like Akira Toriyama's Dragon Ball characters. Well, he was the character designer after all...

Don't ask me about Dr. Slump! I've never watched that in my whole life. I only know Arale is an android.

By the way, I hate Saint Seiya's sad soundtracks.
