Putin Spits in the Face of Freedom-Loving People

The military buildup went on for weeks. Hundreds of thousands of Russian troops were poised to invade Ukraine.

But Russian President Vladimir Putin denied his country would attack. Repeatedly he criticized the U.S. and other countries for "wild speculations" about his intentions.

Well, now we know for sure he was lying. Again. A full-scale attack on Ukraine has been ongoing for a week. And it's exactly what he had in mind all along.

Air raid sirens are wailing. Missiles are striking their targets. Tanks continue to roll toward major Ukrainian cities. Cyber attacks are infiltrating the country's power grid and governmental agencies.

And as the world takes a stand against Putin, the effects of this war are radiating across the globe and will continue to impact us here in our great nation.

David Against Goliath

Ukrainian citizens and soldiers are bravely fighting back. They claim to have inflicted heavy losses on Russian forces.

President Volodymyr Zelensky's government has distributed nearly 20,000 guns to citizens. And urged them to make Molotov cocktails.

But they are vastly outnumbered and underequipped. Several Ukrainian cities have fallen. The capital, Kyiv, is encircled as of this writing. Russian artillery attacks were increasing as President Joe Biden was giving his State of the Union Address on Tuesday.

Already hundreds have been killed. Thousands will be injured. Images of bloodied faces emerged on the Internet from the beginning.

Humanitarian Crisis in the Making

Homes and businesses will be destroyed. A humanitarian crisis like nothing we've seen in years may occur.

What is Putin's response to worldwide condemnation? An apology? A promise to pull back? No, only a threat of severe consequences to any nation that tries to intervene.

"Whoever tries to interfere with us, and even more so, to create threats for our country, for our people, should know that Russia's response will be immediate," he announced.

"And will lead you to such consequences that you have never experienced in your history."

Freedom Haters vs. Freedom Fighters

Putin looks at the democracy of Ukraine and sees freedom. It's a concept he hates. It's the main reason he hates America and our allies.

Russia is willing to invade a sovereign nation with 44 million people for no justifiable reason. What's to stop it from attacking elsewhere?

Does Putin have his sights set on global domination? What about other countries bordering Ukraine? Like Poland, Slovakia and Hungary to the west? And Romania and Moldova to the south?

In his mind, an invasion of Ukraine is a legitimate action. Because Ukraine once belonged to Russia. But it has been independent since 1991 following the dissolution of the Soviet Union.

Soviet Union Rebirth?

So, what is Putin's end game? It seems pretty obvious. He wants to bring back the old Soviet Union. He aims to re-establish Russian influence. And dominance over the old Soviet bloc nations.

Biden has imposed severe sanctions. Vice President Kamala Harris called them "some of the greatest sanctions… that we've ever issued."

But clearly that threat means little to Putin. He knows that because Ukraine is not a NATO member, there will be no outside military force used against him.

Despite that, Putin has put his nuclear deterrent forces on an elevated alert status.

The World Reacts

How are other world leaders reacting to the Russian invasion?

German Chancellor Olaf Scholz called it "a reckless act by President Putin." And a "terrible day for Ukraine and a dark day for Europe." Australian Prime Minister Scott Morrison said Ukraine has his country's "unwavering support."

European Union Commission President Ursula von der Leyden called Russia's actions a "barbaric attack." She threatened "massive and strategic" sanctions against Russia.

She added, "These sanctions are designed to take a heavy toll on the Kremlin's interests. And their ability to finance war. And we know that millions of Russians do not want war."

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson tweeted that Russia's invasion was "a catastrophe for our continent." French President Emmanuel Macron said, "France stands in solidarity with Ukraine. It stands with Ukrainians and is working with its partners and allies to end the war."

China, a closer ally of Russia in recent years, neither condemned nor supported the attack. But with China beginning to import Russian wheat, the impact of Western sanctions could be eased.

And what about within Russia itself? Tens of thousands of citizens are protesting against the incursion. At last count, some 6,000 have been arrested for their protests.

It Will Be Felt Here

So what will this invasion mean for Americans? For one thing it will mean an increase in already high gas prices.

The stock market is likely to take a big hit. The last thing we need right now is another surge in inflation. It's already crushing so many American households.

Yet another consequence for Americans is the probability of stepped-up cyber attacks from Russia.

Another and potentially longer lasting consequence is the rebirth of the Cold War. Many of us remember the tensions we felt during the Sixties and Seventies.

Finally, the Russian invasion will likely cause food shortages and higher food prices. Russia is one of the leading fertilizer exporters. Fertilizer shortages were already weighing heavily on farmers. The result will be higher prices at the grocery store.

Of course, this is one of the reasons we champion freedom and self-reliance. And why we want to help you prepare for any eventuality with the food and power security you deserve.

We're committed to keeping you informed with news that impacts your family and ways to secure your health, well-being, and peace of mind during these uncertain times.

I hope you'll join us in praying for peace in Ukraine.

    Yes, I have been praying for peace r in Ukraine and for God to intervene. Prayers going up to my Heavenly Father.

    No matter what happens “over there”, it WILL impact this country, especially with this inept administration in office now. It’s unfortunate not only for Ukraine but Taiwan is in a very dangerous predicament with China. I don’t expect Biden to be supportive as he’s in China’s pocket, just like the Clintons.
    This country needs to unite as one and start dictating to the PUBLIC SERVANTS that are ELECTED to work for the CITIZENS of this country as they SWORE to do when they entered into office.

    I have a slightly different viewpoint: Ukraine is supportive of WEF (Klaus Schwab, George Soros and Bill Gates’ brainchild), and is using Russian aggression as an opportunity to drag both Russia and the US (countries not committed to the WEF) into war, thereby paving the way for a global reset.
    This is simply my reading of the situation…I may be totally wrong; time will tell.

    I think we should have already sent weapons to Ukraine.get in gear world. We need to get help to them now?

  • Ckl - March 08, 2022

    It’s so sad and my prayers are with those in Ukraine.
    I grew up in the 60s and 70s. I remember always feeling like the life as we know it can be taken away at any time because of another country deciding they want more property and to force their way of life on others. Now my kids and grandkids are having to go through it. Everyone deserves to live their own life with safety and security.

    IMHO
    1) it is critical that our POTUS reverse his damaging first day edicts squashing our energy self reliance!
    2) Further food shortages predicted to increase coupled with our dependence on off shore food supplies, indicates it is imperative to make it illegal to continue allowing tillable land to be sacrificed for development of any kind other that AGRICULTURE. No more farms should be turned into housing developments, factories, warehouses, shopping malls, or other greedy pursuits benefiting only a single entrepreneur. There are abundant acres not suitable for agriculture that can be utilized for these pursuits!

    Read the bible say the truth…..

  • Mike Harrington - March 08, 2022

    Good on ya for making sure folks hear the truth about what’s going on over there, and none of this “Putin has a right to…” bullshit that’s been going around. I mean it. You sound like a veteran, like what a real patriot of Freedom would say.

  • Donna Thomas - March 08, 2022

    Thank you for this article. I have been stocking up with 4Patriots food a little at a time for the last year. I gave several of the 72 Hour Kits to my family members for Christmas. I’m planning on buying more, but my budget prevents me from purchasing all that I want to purchase.

    I am extremely worried about our future in this country, but I am grateful for 4Patriots being there to offer the survival food and other items to help us out. I will continue to pray for the USA and for Ukraine.

    Thank you,
    Donna Thomas

    Ukraine is a cesspool of corruption. It has two operations going on both of which involve players from the states and other countries.
    First are significant numbers of biolabs that could prove deadly to most life on earth if the contents were “accidentally” released.
    The second operation involves child trafficking and drug production. (Adrenachrome is produced.) Many US “leaders” and celebrities are involved in this crime.
    Please don’t fall for the cover story about Putin’s intentions being to take over Ukraine as a simple land grab. He is being demonized as a major distraction from these and other crimes. False flag operation? Yes. Don’t allow yourself to be manipulated into another senseless war fought to protect vested interests.
    I am a true patriot. I love the U.S., its people and constitution. I do not love its leadership, corrupted now for decades.
    Now is the time to separate wheat from chaff when it comes to declaring one’s patriotism.

  • David - March 08, 2022

    You have it all wrong with what is happening in Ukraine. Stop listening to the MSM propaganda with there narrative of poor Ukrainian people in Kiev. This country is controlled by the Cabal and is third from the bottom of most corrupt countries on the planet. This puppet regime that was set up in Ukraine is where the Cabal players laundered there money and had organized human trafficking going on behind the scenes. US was also operating 11 Biolabs with funding coming from our own DOD that were involved with the same Gain of Function research that the Wuhan Chinese lab was working on. Russia did not want these labs to release another bio weapon or be working on biological weapons next to their border. The eastern part of Ukraine is also ethnic Russian and they were being prosecuted buy the current regime that was in place. There is a lot more involved than what we are being told.

    Dear 4Patriots:
    I wanted to tell you that I really love your company, but I believe you have been misled by the fake mockingbird media about who the real villain is in the so called “war” with Russia. Please don’t believe me, but look into alternative media to confirm. Putin is strategically bombing gain of function labs making by more bio weapons on his boarder. Were you all aware that the primary sex trafficking for women and children is in the Ukraine? Also money laundering and all sorts of evil is taking place after our corrupt three letter agencies installed a puppet government with the leader a former comedian. Our media lies and I can confirm a a front line health care employee, the whole Covid plandemic will leave a trail of death from the various injections they call “vaccines.” Many corrupt politicians have significant sums of money invested in Ukraine, which is likely why they seem to care about that boarder and not our boarder with Mexico. Many are involved in sex trafficking and they need to cover the evidence. There is a film which has been prevented from release called The Sound of Freedom with Jim Caviezel which exposes the horror of this industry. Our information from most mainstream media is propaganda. In the meantime I will still continue to support your company and recommend it to friends. Best Regards Dr. Heidi L
