Praying for your possible captors and executioners IS NOT an expectation of failure – it is exactly the opposite. WE KNOW that we have the victory, but we also know, as virile people grounded in reality, that EVERY WAR HAS PHYSICAL CASUALTIES. But just because there are corporeal casualties, including possibly our own bodily death, doesn’t mean we don’t fight. That would be EFFEMINATE. Like St. Martina, we know death is nothing to fear, and death is often an opportunity to evangelize by example

Barnhardt
St. Martina, Martyred in ARSH 226 by the government for her zeal and refusal to bow to ANY form of paganism, and converted her executioners – her “friends that she hadn’t met yet.”

 Ann Barnhardt:

As St. Martina teaches us, even your EXECUTIONERS might be “your friends that you haven’t met yet”.  Maybe we should all step our prayer games up and pray every day for any future captors and executioners we might have SPECIFICALLY. “…For my friends that I haven’t met yet, especially any future captors or executioners.”

And pray for the Truckers. Word is that most trailers are filled with supplies, so when the truckers say, “We aren’t leaving until the dictatorship is over,” they aren’t kidding.

Praying for your possible captors and executioners IS NOT an expectation of failure – it is exactly the opposite.  WE KNOW that we have the victory, but we also know, as virile people grounded in reality, that EVERY WAR HAS PHYSICAL CASUALTIES.  But just because there are corporeal casualties, including possibly our own bodily death, doesn’t mean we don’t fight.  That would be EFFEMINATE.  Like St. Martina, we know death is nothing to fear, and death is often an opportunity to evangelize by example.  If we should find ourselves captive or being killed by the enemy, let us die with such calm, virile confidence that we convert even our executioners by sheer attraction to our Christian courage.  Courage. Fortitudo moralis. The fruit of the Third Sorrowful Mystery: the crowning of Our Lord with the Crown of Thorns.

Former advisor to Sec. of Defense, Col. Douglas MacGregor: "the next phase of the Ukrainian War will not only destroy the Ukrainian state. It will also demolish the last vestiges of the postwar liberal order"

Macgregor appears to cite intel sources for his numbers and timetable—and I assume he really does have good sources. He says the offensive will happen “not sooner than 12/10 and not later than 12/19.” It will involve something like 540,000 troops with 1,500 tanks, thousands of other armored vehicles, huge numbers of helicopters, fixed wing aircraft, and bombers. These are numbers he says that have been confirmed by US intel. - Mark Wauck [https://meaninginhistory.substack.com/p/doug-macgregors-timetable-and-scale?utm_source=post-email-title&publication_id=473679&post_id=89073832&isFreemail=true&utm_medium=email] Modern Diplomacy reports that  "Douglas Macgregor , Col.

Mainstream Media: "Is America the Real Victim of Anti-Russia Sanctions?" & "Biden's arrogant anti-Russian sanctions have amounted to a price hike on working class Americans that have so far failed to weaken the Russian economy"

  Mainstream Media Acknowledges Biden’s “Arrogant” Sanctions On Russia Are Damning Americans:     @MaxBlumenthal Biden's arrogant anti-Russian sanctions have amounted to a price hike on working class Americans that have so far failed to weaken the Russian economy. His neocon policy accelerates the process of de-dollarization, diplomatic isolation & imperial decline. The mainstream new outlet asked "Is America the Real Victim of Anti-Russia Sanctions?": Remember the claims that Russia’s economy was more or less irrelevant, merely the equivalent of a small, not very impressive European country? “Putin, who has an economy the size of Italy,” Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said in 2014 after the invasion of Crimea, “[is] playing a poker game with a pair of twos and winning.” Of increasing Russian diplomatic and geopolitical influence in Europe, the Middle East, and East Asia, The Economist asked in 2019, “How did a country with an economy the size of Spain … ach
