The Ukrainian revolution had from the very start an anti corruption message. Politicians have both taken advantage and undermined it. This week is not unexpected. Zelenskyy backtracking today is not unexpected. Him using smoke and mirrors, in his new idea, to avoid undermining political allies will not be unexpected next month.

It is utterly predictable that this newspaper will issue similar editorial later.

One day there will be not so much corruption in the life blood of Ukrainian politics. But not soon. Maybe in a generation?

People know instinctively when they are dating up, down or have impossible dreams.

The reasons for that is as varied as there are people, but we all have primate brains and are hard wired to select partners using criteria that can be and are amazingly flexible

This is nothing to worry about

USA: Humanism and mercy are fine, but don’t use them too much, or for every group

at least some of the “clearance” in the past was just picking a random black person and stringing them up then going out for doughnuts

Rumors to this day state it pulses to a Gregorian chant

That does not have to be a contradiction

So, a knight with shield and armor is killing people. Take away his defenses and he kills less. Yes?

When the casualty ratio is more than 1:1000 and the only reason it’s like that is because of the armor . Then helping repair the armor is a war crime.

Also stationing a huge USA navy fleet next to Gaza to prevent any organized from reaching Gaza is a war crime too. Having them move away will reduce the loss of life and allow food to reach the area.

The United States is totally complicit in this

While it is true Sanders has actually dared to criticize Israel repeatedly. There are lines he will not cross, accusations he will not make and things he will not do.

Honestly him being gay probably is better than him being hetero, for purposes of law and order and stability.

But, I wonder what his net worth is by himself?

I would say the head of the fbi is in bed with billionaire interests: in more than one way
