CONCERNING A NEW UKRAINIAN STRATEGY BEING USED IN THE KHERSON COUNTER-OFFENSIVE

Small changes often produce big results, so it is obviously important that Ukrainian forces are trying out a new strategy for their counter-offensive in the Kherson region, because formerly used strategies were not working for them effectively. However, in spite of the many changes in strategy on the Ukrainian side over the course of the Proxy War, so far, Russian Federation led forces have been successful in adapting quickly and, more importantly, in keeping a cool head. I would expect that Ukrainian forces have, at most, three days, before Russian forces fully adapt, maybe rather less time. They do appear to have a short window of time to achieve their goals, but I think this window of time is very short and it is unlikely many goals will be achieved before the window closes. Personally, I think life is more important that pride, so I hope Ukrainians will choose life, even though it will mean accepting the unbearable. Rather than see more Japanese die in 1945, that is what the Emperor Hirohito asked the Japanese people to do, to accept the unbearable. Then, accepting the unbearable, after we lost our military and made a best effort to become the least corrupt society in Asia, we experienced over 40 years of unparalleled economic growth. Unfortunately, the new generation of Japanese political leaders are once again gradually corrupting the financial and governmental bodies of our society and, even more worrying to me, many young people, not knowing war, have begun to romanticize it again. I hope this can be changed, but doubt that will be possible. In the same way, I doubt that Ukraine will act in its own best interests. I foresee that it will continue to do what American and British 3-letter "disintelligence" agencies and neo-liberal/neo-con war hawks want it to do so that they can continue to make money through arms sales and through corrupt Ukrainian government channels that before the proxy war, had turned Ukraine into a laundry service for dirty money. My heart goes out to Ukraine because they have no one like our Emperor Hirohito they can listen to, the only man in Japan who could change history in 1945 by telling us it was his wish for us to bear the unbearable, with the implication being that he valued life over death and wanted us to get on with life, even if it meant that he, himself, might be put on trial and executed.


"ROAR CAT ROAR" WRITTEN AND SUNG BY ME AT 71 TO NIGERIAN MUSIC

In late 2021, at the age of 71, I wrote and performed a song about a vegan Indian tiger who eats plant-based meat and drinks home made wine! He's stylish, handsome, and loves listening to his human mother's jazz performances. He's also a daddy's boy, who helps his human father by protecting the family cattle. This song was written, composed and performed to celebrate the Chinese zodiac Year of the Tiger and all people born in one of these years (1914, 1926, 1938, 1950, 1962, 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010 and 2022), people who are known for being strong willed, ferocious fighters, but who take good loving care of others who belong to their family and circle of friends. As it's still the Year of the Tiger until 22 January 2023 when it becomes the Year of the Rabbit, I hope those of you who are tigers, or have a loved one who is a tiger, will gain some joy from the song.
