Safe in their writing dens, comfortable behind their humming computers, somewhere in their comfortable US homes - Applebaum and her bloodlust Atlantic editors- writing on how more killing, more human murder, is such a valuable goal, worth more escalation, more vengeance, more death.

Ukrainians, statistical pixels on a computer screen - to be sacrificed by the thousands for the mystical love of military bloodshed and military righteousness.

Have another cup of coffee Applebaum. It's all so easy when the missile isn't pointing at you isn't it? When it isn't your child being blown up on the streets of Kherson or Kyiv.

The Atlantic was cheerleader for the illegal and immoral Iraq War. That’s when I stopped reading it.
