I just edited to add a video link to my post. The video is a perfect reply to the poster… and links to Ukraine.

The Ukraine war has a religious dimension as well, although with the growing irreligiosity in the world, it may not be of primary importance.

Good video, Irene; thanks for posting that.

I did laugh out loud when she said, "Softer than a cashmere blanket."

Thanks for sharing this, it was an interesting watch. Putin is nothing but a low life gangster. Probably the biggest gangster in world history.

Haaar! That girl nailed it in one short vid clip.

In keeping with TOkidd's desire to insulate this thread from the usual nonsense:

https://www.msn.com/en-ca/money/tops...ueB?li=AAggNb9

This move seems to be the next step to waking up the oligarchs who might have some sway with convincing Pooty Tunes he's jumped the shark with his military and nuclear threats. Those guys seem to like their freedom to roam the world unfettered on their yachts.

Good for her. She nailed it. If I ever need a defense or prosecution attorney or an advocate of some other kind on my side, I want her.

She made such a good point - if freedom protesters can't be willing to take an injection of vaccine to help protect their own people then how could anyone expect those same freedom protesters would be willing to take bullets for their own people?

Another in the list of things the oligarchs are going to find concerning:

https://www.msn.com/en-ca/money/tops...xAh?li=AAggNb9


And further constricting Russian travel abroad:

"The EU will also shut down its airspace for "Russian-owned, Russian registered or Russian-controlled aircraft."

"They won't be able to land in, take off or overfly the territory of the EU," Ursula Gertrud von der Leyen, the president of the European Commission, announced.

In addition, the EU said it would ban the RT and Sputnik news agencies and would develop "tools to ban their toxic and harmful disinformation in Europe."

The EU also announced it would be stopping exports of products to Belarus, including mineral fuels, tobacco, wood and timber, cement, iron and steel. It will also sanction Belarusians who are supporting the Russian war effort."
