Publicizing Zelenskyy’s visit? Why? They say it’s dangerous and had been kept secret,, so why announce it now?

Because HE needs the publicity - we're about to dump buckets of money on him, and he needs to show the world that he has our support. And we need to show folks that it's good to be supporting him and not Russia.
In other words, PR.

The PR will be done once he’s here safely. There’s Russians out there with deadly injections just chomping at the bit to get near him or his drinks.

One would like to hope that Vlad isn't THAT stupid, but who knows?
And I think that once the arrangements were made, it was a good idea to publicize that he was making the trip - that way Russia knew that if something 'happened', that they'd 100% be under the gun and the West would take action.

Can;t remember what I was watching or listening to the other day... but the commentator was talking about when Iran was our ally. IIRC we gave or sold them (They did us a favor first, okay?) a shitload of F14s. Blah blah blah.... revolution and done. So then we went over to the next block and had even better goodies for Saddam Hussein to shoot at Iran with. Really and truly, it's good to be King (the one from Shrek comes to mind).

Let's not forget arming the Contras. That seems to have gone very well also.

Didn’t we arm some group in Afghanistan (taliban?) when they were fighting the Russians?

Yup - we created the Taliban I think. They were a bunch of warlords who didn't play well together until we gave them arms and educated them on the ways of True Power.
