Of course not, but I would be relived. The wait would finally be over... "Wars and rumors of wars" (nation against nation) are just signs of the times, it's peace talks with Israel that you have to watch for. Just consider, what will be the political atmosphere in the region if Russia DOES take Ukraine?

When I am relived ("relieved?) about something...I'm glad about it. Relief is usually a welcomed thing.
A war involving nuclear annihilation and generations of atmospheric toxicity would bring me no relief.
Wars and rumors of wars are the norm for every era in Human history.

At this point, I doubt that Russia wants all of Ukraine. They dont appear to have the manpower for it without bombing Ukraine flat. That is not what they had in mind at the outset. They mistakenly thought that a large percentage of the population would welcome them and the Ukrainian resistance would never be there. I SUSPECT that they will settle for something that they can call a "victory" in Eastern Ukraine. I BELIEVE that the west is already pressuring Zelensky to give that up.

We shall see.

Israel sits this one out. If they got to be in it for "ARMAGEDDON" to occur....likely no Armageddon for you.
Better luck next time. lol.

Tony if you are going to put this stuff on a public forum, gotta take a joke now and then. wink
