⁣I HAD TWO UNCLES THAT SERVED

One went across Normandy on D-plus-6, liberated France, fought in the Battle of the Bulge, and finished the war in Czechoslovakia with Patton’s 3rd Army.

The other was commissioned in the Marines, and stormed ashore Iwo Jima. Afterwards his unit underwent training for the invasion of Japan.

Both survived.

Hundreds of thousands of other Americans did not.

I DIDN’T ASK TO BE IN THIS POSITION. I WAS JUST TRYING TO DO MY JOB

To break down obstacles constructed from ignorance by empowering people with knowledge and information.

To provide an antidote to the poison of Russophobia that has infected America and the West.
To promote the cause of peace.
And to lobby against nuclear war.

The US government has taken umbrage at my work.
They seized my passport.
They sent the FBI to search my home.
They claim, wrongly so, that I have operated as an agent of the Russian government.

They have not charged me with a crime. Hopefully they will not, because I have committed no crime.

But if they do, I have to be prepared to defend myself.

To defend free speech.
To defend a free press.
To defend the Constitution.
Such a defense comes at a cost.
A cost that would be impossible for me to bear on my own.

So I am asking for your help.

Because the time to raise a defense fund is before you need it.
Because if the time comes that I do need it, I will need it right then and there.

This is a battle that extends beyond me as an individual.

This is a battle for all Americans.

Because once the government can silence one dissenting voice, it will be able to silence all dissenting voices.

This is our battle.
A battle for the very soul of America.

Help me fight it.
Thank you.

⁣GEORGE MURDOCH CONNELL WAS A MARINE’S MARINE

He served as a Company Commander in the famous “Walking Dead” (1/9 Marines) in Vietnam, where he was awarded the Silver Star and Bronze Star for heroism in combat (and the Purple Heart for his wounds.)

He was the consummate Cold Warrior, highly decorated for his intelligence work as a military attaché in Moscow in the 1980’s.

He commanded the on-site inspection activities conducted at the Votkinsk missile assembly plant as part of the verification of the Intermediate Nuclear Forces treaty.

That is where I got to know him.
I was a young Lieutenant.
He was my mentor and friend.

When he passed in April 2015, at the age of 72, it broke my heart.

Together with hundreds of his family and friends, I honored him by attending his funeral at Arlington National Cemetery.

He was buried with full military honors.

George had a wicked sense of humor.
To help break the monotony and loneliness of serving in a remote location in the heart of the Soviet Union, thousands of miles away from home, George introduced the pink flamingo to Votkinsk.

The Americans loved it.
The Soviets grew to love it.
Pink flamingos are to George Connell like bees are to honey—inseparable.

Every now and then, those of us who loved George Connell will visit his grave site to honor the man and the Marine.

Sometimes we leave behind pink flamingos.

It’s against the rules.
We don’t care.

Because we know somewhere up above, George is looking down on us and smiling.

Semper Fidelis, Colonel.
Bravo Zulu for a life well lived.

REFLECTING BACK ON MY “LOST SUMMER”, and am simultaneously struck by the sorrow of not being able to see the Russian friends I’ve made in the past two years, regrets over the new friendships that could have blossomed, and joy over the friendships I was able to make.

Friendship is the most important ingredient in the antidote for war.

I will continue to fight to preserve those friendships I have made, and for those I will make in the future.

That’s what waging peace is all about.

UKRAINIAN CONFLICT ESCALATION CAN LEAD TO GLOBAL-ENDING NUCLEAR WAR

Ukraine attacking Russia using long-range weapons provided by the US might be interpreted by Russia as a direct attack by the US, by NATO, on Russian territory, and regarded as a prelude to a larger military incursion meant to accomplish the US ultimate goal, the strategic defeat of Russia.

Russia has made it clear that as a nuclear power, it not only will not, but cannot be defeated strategically — because if such a possibility manifested itself, Russia would be required to use its nuclear arsenal to ensure that outcome would never, never occur. This means general nuclear war.

This is a very dangerous escalation, one that could rapidly create the conditions conducive for not limited nuclear conflict, but a general nuclear war, a global-ending global disaster... the destruction of the world. Why? Because the US and NATO will not be honest about the state of affairs in Ukraine today.

Ukraine has already lost the war and nothing that Kiev might do to try and tip the scales in its favor is going to change that.

U.S. AND TAIWAN PROVOKE CHINA

Taiwan President Lai visited Matsu, an island off the coast of China.

The island was the site of a crisis in 1958 when Chinese communists shelled the islands in an attempt to dislodge Taiwanese troops.

This year, the US sent a special forces team to Kinmen Island to train Taiwanese commandos.

This is in contrast to the 1979 policy when the US enacted the Taiwan Law on Coordination with Taiwan for Self-Defense.

The US is seeking to rethink its military relationships with Japan, South Korea, the Philippines and Australia to counter China. This has alarmed China and prompted it to expand its nuclear arsenal.

The Taiwanese president's trip to Matsu is part of a broader strategy by the US and its regional allies to provoke China into a nuclear conflict.

⁣THIS IS HOW ISRAEL COMMITS SUICIDE

Continuing a conflict it can’t win.

A conflict that has exposed it as an apartheid genocidal state.

A conflict that is destroying it economically, socially, and militarily.

In the name of rescuing people who could be released simply by having Israel end the war it cannot win.

⁣MY LOST SUMMER

I had hoped to make the Summer of 2024 a memorable one—building bridges of friendship to Russia, working to develop knowledge and information as an antidote to the poison of Russophobia in America, and trying to prevent a nuclear war between my country and the Russian Federation.

Growing up in a military family, I was immersed in patriotic themes built around the notion of service to one’s country.

It was destined that I follow in my father’s footsteps to serve my country as a Marine, and to abide by the code of an American fighting man. When I was commissioned, I took an oath “that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter, so help me God.”

⁣YOU COULD HAVE SAVED HIM AND ALL THE HOSTAGES

All you had to do was pressure Netanyahu.

But the Biden-Harris administration sold out to Israel long ago.

And now the hostages and the people of Gaza pay the price.
