Anne's Daily Encounters

The Insane Idol

the Olympic Games in China have ended and as foretold by many Russia under the rule of tyrant Vladimir Putin has started war on Ukrania.
A most black page in history books is written today and the people of Ukrania are left alone by all of us in Europe... they too will ask us later on why we didn't come to safe them and their country! from the brutal attack on them by Putin! We didn't come because we live on Russia's gas and oil and forgot to arm ourselves to defend our world and the world of our close neighbours who live under threat and now are attacked.

Interview that I found in the newspaper in Holland:
 "The message on TV in Russia is clear: we Russians are not bombing. We are not at war"
If you are to believe Russian television, then Russia is on a peace mission in Ukraine, says director Masha Novikova, who lives in the Netherlands. “There is a group of Russians who have been completely brainwashed by twenty years of propaganda.”

How do you think the coming days and weeks will go?
"Let me state that I find it incomprehensible that those Russians are fighting. They must be totally brainwashed. I think if Putin wins this battle, he won't stop. I see danger for Georgia and for the Baltic States. And Putin has already threatened so many times with nuclear weapons. If we as NATO get involved, it will be life-threatening. But I would like to point out as a bright spot this: if one person in the carefully constructed pyramid of rulers under Putin starts to have doubts, things may start to shift. If someone in his circle protests or thinks 'this is not possible', then something is possible. Let's hope that happens.”
