An op-ed by National Security Advisor Lt. General Michael Flynn suggests that Russia’s invasion of Ukraine was “totally avoidable,” and because of America’s perceived weakness and poor foreign policies, the world is now in the “onset of WWIII,” according to the Western Journal.
Flynn writes: “
With the price of oil pushing above $100 per barrel, the U.S. stock market opening with heavy losses, more global economic challenges looming, the real potential for significant loss of life, and the international community in complete disarray with feeble attempts to condemn what was totally avoidable, we face the onset of another very grave and historic period of tension between competing ideologies and worse, the onset of WWIII.”
He adds, this “invasion” was totally avoidable.”
Casting blame on President Joe Biden, the leader of the free world, Flynn wrote:
“As one friend told me, President Joe Biden and his failed foreign policy team set the table and sent the invitation, and Russian President Vladimir Putin came and spoiled the dinner party.
Clearly, there are fault lines on both sides, but for now, we must pray that those affected, without the ability to decide their fate, are able to survive this extraordinary period of world history unfolding (for many, unraveling) on the world stage. Civilians and military forces will be killed, wounded, and displaced; those are the real consequences of war.
Flynn, an ardent and outspoken Christian, implored his readers to pray:
“Pray that this conventional war is limited in scope, purpose, and intent.”
Flynn also warned that what happens in Ukraine will impact what happens in other parts of the world:
“Yes, there were gross violations of previous agreements due to incompetence, arrogance, and ignorance that got us to this point. Beyond this, what happens next is anyone’s guess, but Putin (and Xi — Taiwan?) just laid down a new world order marker.”
“That said, it is doubtful that the U.S. administration will change its failed foreign policy, and instead, it will make weak attempts to triple down on leveraging this extremely serious situation in Europe to continue to distract from problems here at home.”
Flynn noted how economic and energy factors factored into Russian aggression, and America’s weak response:
“Given the shutting down of the Keystone pipeline and America’s energy independence, while also enabling Russia and Germany…to reopen the Nordstream pipeline, one has to wonder about the discussions in the Oval Office that came to these conclusions.”
Flynn asserted that America, and therefore the world, is suffering due to the advance of progressive ideology:
“This is the Biden administration: describing America as a systemically racist nation; appointing Marxists and other radical ideologues to positions of power; allowing millions to surge across our southern border; attempting to federalize our election systems and processes; implementing racist critical race theory in our schools, military and government; and all along, raising the national debt until it is closing in on $30 trillion — spending us toward extinction, all for left-wing causes.”
Flynn concluded by noting that past blunders and false statements negatively impact America’s ability to rally its citizens and present a united front against attacks on democracy in the future.
“Let us not forget the Afghanistan disaster, the myriad lies about COVID, a certain Biden-owned laptop, a complete refusal to investigate allegations of election irregularities … all while China gets a pass.
“It is extremely difficult to trust this administration when they lie with a straight face to the American people daily.”
“Anyone who questions these rotten foreign and domestic policies is demonized as a racist. We see the unleashing of the federal government on citizens who are simply exercising their constitutional rights and the establishment media covers all this incompetence with a fake smile due to their own deep corruption.”
Questioning the Biden Administration’s ability to navigate America through perilous seas, Flynn concluded his letter:
“Our president rarely entertains questions or takes responsibility for his tone-deafness and failures. The White House ignored — even laughed at — Putin’s legitimate security concerns and ethnic unrest in the Ukraine.
We have yet to hear from the president of the United States an explanation of U.S. national security interests in the region.”
