The folks at portable apps have created a package of free useful programs for use in Ukraine (via USB stick, etc.)
Coded in the two prominent languages used there. What a nice effort!

Will the Ukraine's comedian turned dictator allow them?

Probably getting his news from outside the US...where the spin is tolerable...and shows what is really going on.

Nothing is...as it appears.

In wars, negative news is always glossed over. Early in the invasion, BBC reported that as trains filled with those getting out of Ukraine, black university students from Africa were not allowed on the trains, even though there were empty seats. Those same students that made it to the Polish border were given a bad time.

Knowing my first-generation Polish relatives attitudes towards race, I sadly understand how this happens.

I suggest studying History and Language of the region. It will help in understanding realities. [Recommended reading: Books on Holodomor. The Holodomor (Ukrainian: Голодомо́р, "Extermination by hunger" or "Hunger-extermination")]

(My mother's father was executed by the Bolsheviks for fighting against them, trying to stop them from their invasion of his country.)

Am I supposed to believe that Zelensky is the dictator who is attempting to “N**ify” the Ukraine, or should I believe my lying eyes and the western press that has brought Russian atrocities to light?
I believe in nuance; but the Russian arguments justifying their invasion, or repatriation. As they might prefer to call it, doesn’t stand up to analysis.

Putin is reading Hitler's plan book.

OK so you think it's not going to be allowed?

Regardless of affiliations, etc. nobody should just invade another country with the idea of changing their government and way of life. Didn't work in Vietnam or Afghanistan.

BTW, now the Olympus cameras & lenses I own were made in Vietnam. Same government in place as back then. BTW, I'm Army 66-69.


Tons of stuff made in China. Same government that supplied North Vietnam.

Apparently commerce and trade beats warring.

Last time I checked, some South Korean companies had a bit of product assembly done in special factories across the DMZ in North Korea.

N**ify? You are spinning your own yarn.

I will say...there is a LOT of shady stuff going on in the Ukraine....millions upon millions of aid...has simply vanished...big surprise.

Anyone remember the movie...Lord Of War...well that's pretty much what has been setup in the Ukraine.

It's a testing ground... a proxy war.
Happening right before your eyes...the movie unfolds.

The corruption over there is massive...Burisma...Bidens...Clintons...that should tell you enough.
Tracks are being covered...

I can tell what the Ukraine is not... a democracy...in any way...that's the carrot being used as a cover story.

Results: China and Russia ... for the very first time...are going to synchronize.

And that is going to change the globe...for a very long time.

There's a realignment coming...and it has a high chance of success.

Ignore the advice...if you like surprises.

Zelensky was a poor comedian/actor before becoming president of the Ukraine. He now is a wealthy (millionaire, as so many politicians have become) dictator, who did away with all his opposition, as they always do! Turns out, he's a pretty good actor - good enough to fool those who want to be fooled!

Who is surprised?

That is what happens with military supply aid...it gets blown up when fired and simply vanishes...blows up, but vanishes.
