W.A.S.P.’s Blackie Lawless Shares His Thoughts on Ukraine​

W.A.S.P. singer/bassist Blackie Lawless has issued a statement on Ukraine and it reads as follows:

The situation in Ukraine is highly complex, more than most of us will ever know. I realize as I write this, most likely, I will never be able to go back.

Regardless of individual political beliefs or who did what to whom years ago for whatever disgusting reason, the images that are coming out of Ukraine scream for themselves.

The total degradation of human beings. The word I keep gritting through my teeth is ‘Obscene’. NOTHING and I mean NOTHING can justify this invasion and or occupation by Russia of the Sovereign Nation of Ukraine.

Those ‘obscene’ images of watching children, babies, the elderly, the infirm and ordinary civilians also by no fault of their own, being utterly destroyed, displaced and the lives of an entire nation uprooted and forever changed, for no other reason than simple, godless selfishness by a bully and why does the bully do it?

…..Because He CAN!

It’s reported Putin’s desire to annex Ukraine is because of historical significant to the old Russian Empire. I get that. But the world changes. I can tell you from being part Native American Indian (Blackfoot) that sometimes you lose your land. Period! It’s just the way it is. So, you move on or die.

I hope one day the Ukrainian people will be able to embrace that one precious Freedom for themselves, in their own land. Because if they do, the other freedoms will follow. I do not know if anyone in the Ukraine will ever be able to read any of what is written here. But if any can, we want them to know, the world is with them.

Sincerely, Godspeed. Слава Україні!- Glory to Ukraine!
