This letter is about U.S. Senator Tommy Tuberville from the good state of Alabama, who principally has his one heel on the throat of the U.S. army — and now has stomped the opposite on the Ukrainian resistance (army).
From “Moby Dick,” as inspiration to the women and men who’re resisting Mom Russia’s aggression:
“In the direction of thee I roll, thou all-destroying however unconquering whale; to the final I grapple with thee; from hell’s coronary heart I stab at thee; for hate’s sake I spit my final breath at thee. Sink all coffins and all hearses to 1 widespread pool! and since neither may be mine, let me then tow to items, whereas nonetheless chasing thee, although tied to thee, thou damned whale! Thus, I surrender the spear!”
Hypothetical: if it had been the State of Georgia trying to annex Alabama, and committing unspeakable conflict crimes to the little children of Tuberville’s state’s households, how then would he react?
Sen. Tuberville ought to be not the person he apparently thinks he must be — to achieve political favor, however be the person I do know he may be. And, he ought to assist take a workforce (on this case, a rustic) who might solely be destined to lose, and assist make them a winner. Slava Ukraini.
