...attacked by who?

'We' watched the weaker elements in our society allow themselves to be driven by fear, finding security in being torn apart. And here we are, usurped of the one Identity that holds the notion of Cypriots living here, having lived here millennia.

...such as it is when one takes comfort in generalities. America is all bad, wot? If Turk (replace w/Greek if it soothes your sensibilities): bad, wot, wot? Putin (the one who murders his opposition and who has secret villas worth billions) is good?

Can we agree at least that there are Ukrainians like Cypriots very much unlike "Them"?

...corruption Lordo, if you want a cause for the war in Ukraine; (blame "Ukrainians" if you like, who split from "Russia") long before Putin it had been institutionalised, but even it had become corrupted, and fell.

You cannot blame Zelenskyy for anything in the past (since his election); he is, as a matter of fact, trying to break away from it while trying to pick up the pieces from it.

...Lavrov speaks in India.

...Lavrov speaks in India.

Excellent responses from the Russian Foreign Minister.

He was able to take control of the discussion and over the Indian presenter of the forum and his uninformed (playing dumb) questions.

This is what I call a Swine presenter, normally they work for the Bullshit Broadcasting Corporation. Sounded like he just landed from Mars, totally uninformed and even the audience were not all that informed either.

They laughed at the mention of war against Russia. The Economic war was going on in an invisible way for decades trying to isolate Russia economically. The Ukrainians attacked the Russian speakers in Ukraine in 2014. And yet they only see the actual intervention as the beginning of the war. If this audience were political scientists, the world has lost all hope.

RW asked few days ago, if Ukraine falls to the Russians who will be next? The question should be if Ukraine falls to Nato, who will be next?

In fact if Russia loses this one, the world will be at the mercy of the Yanks who operate on Mafia basis. Lavrov put it very well. America tells a countries to do as they are told, and if they do, they will not get attacked either militarily or economically. How many countries can resist such a threat.
Is this not how Mafia works?
They call it protection money, it is nothing of the kind.

The presenter was both clueless and biased, which makes me think this "Raisina Dialogue" which invites hundreds of speakers every time, is just another American funded and controlled 'think tank". The audience seemed a bit more informed though, considering their only 2 questions

As for the presenter's pledge to Lavrov to promise meeting again, Lavrov's response says it all: "The Americans will certainly suggest some questions which you can use then".

...possibilities. Bakhmut may remain Ukrainian for a long time yet.

[Lordo]

It is already pulverised. It is being bombed from 3 sides. There is nothing standing there

“If Russia does not initiate a mandatory mobilization and identify substantial third party ammunition supplies, it will be increasingly challenging for them to sustain the current level of offensive operations in the coming months. And consequently, they may fully shift to holding and defending territories they occupy. In short we do not foresee the Russian military recovering enough this year to make major territorial gains.”
— Avril Haines, director of national intelligence

...missile strikes today, in Ukraine; hypersonics were included allegedly.

...for the record (warning: is boring and long; not for those looking for something sensational)



...Purim; what is the ability to transform.

Charity, the greatest Grace of all.
