I'll never forget how, in the early years of Russia's war against Ukraine, (i.e. from 2014), when ammunition depots were going up in flames, stupid and/or corrupt western journalists blamed UKRAINE for "poor storage" rather than recognizing that AGGRESSOR RUSSIA was blowing them up.

Magyar said Hungary would lift its veto on a planned €90 billion EU loan to UA if oil shipments via the pipeline were restarted. “What I can say to the Ukrainian president -although we haven't spoken- is that this is not a game,”
Who is blackmailing whom, Mr. Magyar?
P.O.S.
And there you have it. No surprises. Hungary's incoming PM Peter Magyar says he expects President Zelensky to restore the transit of Russian oil through the Druzhba oil pipeline, saying “neither Hungary nor the European Union will yield if Zelenskyy tries to blackmail them.”
Europe's Power is Defined by the Ability to Take Action in #Ukraine

Only Europe can take the action necessary to defeat russia, save Ukraine and the international rules-based order, and reclaim the bloc's geopolitical power.
"The future of a united Europe as a global power hinges on Russia’s war in Ukraine. Russia’s defeat can secure this future. This objective cannot be achieved by Europe staying out of the fight and outsourcing its protection from Russia to Ukraine."

Important RUSI-piece:
"The war is in Europe, and Europe must respond with action. Launching a humanitarian military mission focused on helping Ukraine defend against air threats is one of many steps that could turn the tide of this war and make Europe safe again."

The focus of the "remarkable resilience" is an excuse to idly watch the destruction of Ukraine and human life. Let's drop excuses, fulfill our duty to stop genocide, and work on helping Ukrainians heal from the unimaginable.

It increasingly looks likes a way to avoid helping Ukraine achieve victory in the most black and white battle of good vs evil one can imagine.

The focus on the "remarkable resilience" as though it is some magical teflon that makes Ukrainians impervious to the hell of war and genocide increasingly looks like a way to feel good about not doing anywhere near enough to fulfill our duty to help Ukrainians.

Ukrainian resilience should be seen as a survival mechanism, not some magical teflon that causes Ukrainians to be impervious to the effects of a war of EXTERMINATION.
2/5
The constant focus on the "remarkable" and "inspiring" "resilience" of Ukrainians continues to displace the focus from the horrendous psychological trauma Ukrainians are suffering from the endless death and destruction rained upon them by Russia day after day after day.

Based on a social poll of Ukrainian men who are not currently serving in the army, Ukraine could mobilize 1 million men IF Ukraine pursues victory, western support increases, and if a western ally enters to fight on Ukraine's side. The war is winnable!

The Pope's brother is receiving bomb threats at his home. This is a direct result of the hateful words of the despicable Trump administration. The Trump admin is inciting hatred.
My latest on how Israel, despite an appeal last month from Ukraine, allowed a Russian vessel to dock at Haifa with stolen grain from Ukraine
Pentagon has approached GM, Ford and other auto manufacturers to discuss shifting from vehicle to weapons and military supply production.
The US showing more signs the Trump administration is clearly preparing for larger war.
This scumbag enabler of Russian genocide of Ukrainians would have been proud to help the Nazis, too.
As Ukrainians celebrate Easter today, please spare a moment to reflect on how, in part of its genocide of Ukrainians, in the last 4 years, Russia has damaged or destroyed close to 1,000 places of worship all across Ukraine.
Повернення до системи на основі конкуренції між світовими гегемонами — це деградація міжнародного порядку, яка неминуче призведе до збільшення людських страждань у світі через поширення протистоянь і нерівності.

Trump threatened harm to the Pope to try to coerce Pope Leo into submission. More evidence that the Trump administration has no lows.
World Press Photo has announced the winners of 2026. Among them is a photo by Ukrainian photographer Yevhen Maloletka "Russian attack on Kyiv"
In the photo, 65-year-old Valeria Synyuk sits near her destroyed home, after Russia's massive attack of April 24, 2025.
Devastating.
This is just a bit of what "a few square kilometres" looks like:
Those who are writing about Russia's systemic attacks on Ukrainian civilians should be intellectually honest and have the guts to admit that Russia is pursing a clear policy objective of destroying Ukrainians as a national and ethnic group. Russia is committing genocide in Ukraine.

To everyone who (rightly) says Trump must be removed from office for his THREAT of genocide against Iran, you should ALSO be demanding regime change in Russia for the ongoing Russian genocide of Ukrainians. We must prevent, stop, and punish ALL genocide no matter who commits it.
Threatening to exterminate an entire people. This grotesque statement is a pledge to commit genocide. And no one is doing anything about it. But the free world has not stopped Russian genocide of Ukrainians for the last 12.5 years, so this horror is of our own making.
I am truly honoured to have received this Letter of Appreciation from MFA of Ukraine & Minister Sybiha in recognition of my 12+ years of advocacy for defending Ukraine against Russia's illegal war of annihilation & genocide.
The fight for Ukraine is the fight for the future of humanity. We must win.
Never forget: Russia targets playgrounds. Genocidal baby killers.
The restoration of international law so grossly and horrifically violated by Russia should be the foundation of all western action, not a shunned topic.

The main driver for dealing with Russia's war against Ukraine should be the restoration of international law. But it is entirely absent from all discussion. It is not even paid lip service anymore.
