James Dobson: 'Some murderous tyrants need to be taken out'
'That, at least, is my view'

James Dobson, the founder of the James Dobson Family Institute, the host of the "Family Talk" radio programs, and adviser to multiple presidents on family issues, says there are times in history that there are evil people who simply need to be "taken out."
"Some murderous tyrants need to be 'taken out' to save innocent lives. That, at least, is my view," he wrote in his online April newsletter to supporters.
He cited the horrific images of the violence being done to the "gentle people of Ukraine."
"Images of their plight are ever on my mind. How can I write about anything else? Recently, Fox News showed a heart-wrenching video of a man carrying a baby wrapped in a blanket. The child, perhaps one-year- old, had been hit in the head by shrapnel from a Russian bomb. Behind them was the baby's mother who was weeping bitterly as they approached a makeshift hospital. The baby died a few minutes later."
He called out the "brutality" of the Russian army's bombing of a maternity hospital, as well as a children's hospital.
"I thought again today about the devastated people who are suffering every deprivation. They have little food for themselves or their children. Many of them are huddled in unheated ruins without medical supplies, electricity or even water. What also gnaws at my soul is the fracturing of families that is occurring. More than three million refugees, mostly women, children and widows, have fled to Poland, Hungary and other countries in Eastern Europe, knowing they may never see their loved ones again. Some of the refugee children caught a final glimpse of their fathers at a train or bus station as they kissed them goodbye before rushing back into combat against impossible odds. These patriots have lost everything!"
He explained, "There is one man responsible for this human suffering. It is Vladimir Putin, the Russian despot who has inflicted untold horror on the citizens of Ukraine. Senator Lindsey Graham said a few weeks ago that someone within the Soviet system should 'take out' Putin. Sen. Graham has been criticized vigorously for his comment. I was shocked at first, but now believe he was right."
Dobson explained he lived through World War II as a child, and "I have wished as an adult that the German officer, Colonel Claus von Stauffenberg, had been successful when he attempted to kill Adolf Hitler on June 20, 1944. He placed a bomb under 'Der Fuhrer's' table, which exploded violently. Somehow, Hitler survived the blast. Stauffenberg was executed that evening and the war continued for another bloody year."
He said, "What concerns me most about the Ukraine war is the role blackmail appears to be playing in Russia's hands, and how effectively it is working. Putin said that if America sends planes to defend Ukraine, Russia will retaliate by using nuclear weapons.4 President Biden and his advisors immediately got the message and changed their rhetoric. According to the brilliant commentator, Mark Levin, our President and his advisors have apparently decided that Ukraine must not be allowed to win. If Russia loses, Biden and the Pentagon have concluded that Putin will have been humiliated and backed into a corner. This, they believe, could lead to WWIII. That is an unthinkable outcome, of course, but yielding to nuclear blackmail can also be terrifying."
But he warned that Putin, if he succeeds in his demands for control in Ukraine, would not stop there.
"It would only be the beginning. His ultimate goal is to recapture the glory of the USSR, which collapsed in 1989," he said.

I think Putin has blown a gasket.

Would it be too much trouble to explain your newfound love of the joos/Israelis now?

If you haven't noticed, Russia ceased to be commies circa 1991. I was there, I was involved making sure it died.

Letting women and children flee as refugees? Should Putin have fire bombed them like we did in Iraq?

Imagine if we were Russia. Imagine we wanted a chunk of the Gulf Of Mexico because, you know, whatever. Would we want the entirety of Mexico to be absorbed back into the Great North American Union?
Because you and I both know that Ukraine, and Mexico have a hell of a lot in common. Both are engaged in full on criminal activities. Both are run by a mafia of sorts and crime is rampant in both nations. Ukraine is a dangerous place and the hub of human trafficking much like Mexico is. Would Vladimir Putin want to bring what amounts to being a modern looking third world country, into his nation that he has spent 25 years or more trying to build into a modern nation?
Fuck No, and you and I both know that even having those small parts of either country brings a host of fucking problems. That being said, I honestly think that Putin will get what he wants in the end. Ukraine will be neutral, Donbass and Lukhansk will split and be their own territories. The Crimea will always be Russia, and Zelensky will have a TV show here in the US, about nothing because he was always just a puppet and a pawn and not much else.
Maybe they can make him the Soup Nazi for an episode of a newly retooled Seinfeld episode.
The only thing that Putin wants is for the CIA sponsored weapons labs gone, Zelensky and his clown posse gone or dead, and for the people of Ukraine to quit making the wrong kind of friends.
Russia would bury Kiev under a pile of shit if it could because it houses the single most vile and corrupt government in Eastern Europe and that says A LOT.

During WW II we fire bombed the German city of Dresden. Then later when fire crews were trying to put out the fires the city was heavy bombed catching the emergency crews out in the open. That was a war crime that is never discussed because it was done against the "German hun". :-/

Do you really? I find that hard to believe.
But I do know you were in Beirut when the Marine barracks was bombed, and that you cannot say why you were there and what job you had. ;)
