History proves: Trump is right, Putin is a genius

Re: Zeal

Yes I often think about those words. How many places were never supporting Christ Jesus? Roman Formosa, Easter Islanders, Bougainvilleans, the entire Eskimo world, all these stood against Him. “Over our dead bodies!” they might as well have said.

Having one's own way is not Christlike and not something endorsed in anything He said. Cannibals do not conjure countries celebrating Christ, it hardly needs saying, and New Guinea is more associated with the former than the latter. In that spirit of disharmony is it any wonder that Bougainville now agitates for independence? Jesus wants all the world united under Him and missionaries have spilled their blood in New Guinea to help bring that about. Some of them have been eaten, boiled alive in a missionary pot! (I'd have thought they'd be better dressed and cleaned first, but that's not how it's usually represented: this note appended for accuracy.)

Anyway, despite actual Churches having been built and despite so many Christian missionaries having been killed and eaten to bring unity under Him, despite the awful peril awaiting for those rejecting God's message of deliverance—part of which is unity—even knowing that Christ will deal with dissenters upon His return, destroy those seeking some other King, following the will of another or promoting false doctrines and opposing His Will that everyone be Saved (even though He knows that not everyone will be) still Bougainville wants fragmentation, independence from the father island, their own government and almost certainly their own laws. Even if they've never heard of Jesus, which by now certainly they have, due to the zeal of missionaries.

Isaiah 9:6-7 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.

I should also talk about Putin’s economic genius. Just think of all the jobs that are going to be created when it’s time to replace all the bombed-out hospitals, schools, orphanages, and Holocaust gravesites.

Re: History proves: Trump is right, Putin is a genius

When Brother Trump heard about Putin’s latest cakewalk - his Operation Ukraine Liberation - he said that it’s because “Putin is smart”.

For a start, the 3 largest offensives in Eastern Europe, in 1812, 1941, and 1944, were all launched on the same day: June 22nd. This is because any earlier, the ground is covered with thick, bottomless mud, reducing a modern army into a road-bound line, like ducks at a shooting gallery. The worst possible time to launch an offensive is the end of February, as this guarantees 4 months of quagmires.

Therefore, this is the time nobody expected an attack. Putin is a genius.

Instead, by replacing the obsolete blitzkrieg strategy with a 40-mile long gridlock of empty gas tanks and Kmart-pillaging conscripts, he is waging brilliant psychological warfare.

By “failing” to supply his troops with food, Putin is making them more eager to attack, as they literally hunger for the booty of Kiev.

Good technical analysis of Putin's strategy. The enemy did not expect a 40 mile convoy. Then, it did not expect the convoy to stall out. Putin has Ukraine ready for a wholesale defeat.

Putin’s genius is that he has read history, and can avoid the predictable patterns of the past, hitting his enemies in ways nobody could ever expect.

About 4 decades ago, a novel called “Red Army” predicted that WW3 would turn into a chaotic traffic jam. Everybody assumed that Putin had read that book and resolved the issue. But that’s what he wanted them to think.

Instead, by replacing the obsolete blitzkrieg strategy with a 40-mile long gridlock of empty gas tanks and Kmart-pillaging conscripts, he is waging brilliant psychological warfare. In defensive war, the waiting in the hardest thing, as nerves fray, and the imagination gets to work dreaming up nightmares of things that are going to happen soon, or at least sometime this decade.

By “failing” to supply his troops with food, Putin is making them more eager to attack, as they literally hunger for the booty of Kiev. Maybe there will even be cannibalism. Forget Molotov cocktails, the real story here will be the babooshka backrib barbecues.

I could go on about Putin’s genius, but I don’t have time to write a whole book right now, and also I’m getting hungry.
