Will Violates the Logan Act

Over at Hot Air, there's dangerous and seditious talk of peace. Ed Morrissey interviews former ambassador and current congressman Francis Rooney about Ukrainian War ceasefire plans. Rooney very sensibly argues that a ceasefire will come about when both sides make concessions, and any agreement will include Russia keeping some/most of its territorial gains. 

This blog can't say war could have definitely been avoided. We would have tried, 'We stay out of Ukraine. You stay out of Ukraine.' You see, Russia has interests too. Recognizing those doesn't make one a Russian asset [Weren't you a Russian asset? -Ed]. No, just a highly talented observer who wrote quick, incisive, newsy op/eds for Inforos in which everything was 99 and 44/100 percent true. Here's our first article, in which we argued pushing NATO east was a pointless provocation. Why poke the bear? We stand by that. 

This blog can say that it's terrified by the talk from the bellicose Davos set about taking Donbass, Lugansk and Crimea. In the left's dreams liberating Crimea is followed by Regime Change: Russian Front.  Leftist psychology on this matter is complex, but it all stems from a single notion, that Putin stole the presidency from Hillary and gave it to Trump. To put it another way, these people are risking nuclear war to prove a point about the 2016 election.

Will Writes: We've noticed we've had trouble finishing scenes lately. We're over thinking. Once again, don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good. Also, this Georgia revolt is a big deal, normally requiring a couple of chapters of set up. But we don't have that kind of time in The Final Storm. Writing this chapter we're actually breaking our rule about setup-payoff. 

Will sells:

That's the backlist, seven World War 1990 novels and the two Israel Strikes novels. Note how sales are steady till March, when we released The Great Nuclear War of 1975. There's a reason why we keep writing in the World War 1990 universe, and a strong case to be made for writing that third Israel Strikes novel. This year the backlist accounts for roughly 1/3rd of all sales. 

The Jerusalem Post reports that Kanye West further embraces his inner Afro-Jew hater on Tucker Carlson. West says Jared Kushner engineers the Abraham Accords to make money. "I just think that's what they're about, is making money," West continued. "I don't think that they have the ability to make anything on their own. I think they were born into money.” Kanye West is fucking nuts. Exit question, why did Tucker Carlson cut all this stuff from his interview? Too weird? Maybe. But that's not good enough. 

Commercial break. Another General Electric ad that's stuck with us all these years. This ad we saw once again just now. Remember, in 1992 GE is an old corporation reinventing itself as the can-do company that can do a bit of everything. From fridges to jet engines, GE is part of your life. This one's pretty clever. GE, in the air, we'll be there:
