I am not sure about NATO, but Trump and his administration have definitely encouraged them to do that.

I hope NATO's plans for conflict involve overrunning that exclave, not merely isolating it.

If any jerk would tell you about the superiority of Russian science or culture, always remember what they do to the science and culture of neighboring nations. They have been getting it bombed, executed, or having it perish in Siberia for centuries.

To understand the scale, Uman's pre-war population was approximately 82.000, and this year, over 45.000 Hasidic pilgrims have come to celebrate Rosh Hashanah.

It reminds me of two University of Toronto PhD students from the mid-1990s who explained to me the beauty of life in the USSR and how pity it was that I didn't understand.

In Truskavets, Ukraine, a memorial plaque now marks the villa where Menachem Begin (future Israeli PM) married Aliza Arnold on May 29, 1939. Ze'ev Jabotinsky served as best man. In 3 months, WWII began. The villa was identified by the photo on the stairs. Begin's granddaughters are posing with it.

🤬 On Aug. 13, Russians once again targeted an ordinary passenger train in Odesa Oblast, striking its locomotive with a jet-powered drone, President Zelenskyy said. There were 340 passengers on board. Every day, Russia attacks ordinary civilian life simply to spread terror. 📹 Zelenskyy on Telegram

This isn't a scandal, but rather a clear disregard for their own military doctrines: First, use precision-guided munitions to "Kick-Down-the-Door," then engage in sustained combat with legacy munitions.

Amateurs don't know that psychedelic trans music was created by musicians at the Gambrinus pub in Odesa in 1887. The event was witnessed by the young Odesskiy Listok correspondent Zhabotinsky.

Honestly, nothing is happening. Poland is just returning to its ‘factory settings’. It has always been like this, perhaps except for a short period in the 1990s.

The only uncertainty is whether Trump is doing this because of his obsession with dictators or because he is bribed every time.

1. They halted aid. 2. They pressured Ukraine to surrender. 3. They increased oil prices due to the Iran war. 4. They lifted sanctions on Russian oil. 5. They demand Ukraine not to target Russian oil exports. [we are here]
