‘Music is to me the light’ For this piece Charlotte Higgins sets the scene at the National Philharmonic Hall in Warsaw, where the stakes are very high for everyone on stage. Violinist Joshua Bell and conductor Dalia Stasevska are on an intensely focused mission to get the opening bars of a concerto just right – and not just any concerto, but one by the virtually forgotten Ukrainian-born composer Thomas de Hartmann. The musicians of the International Symphony Orchestra Lviv (INSO-Lviv) are giving it its first commercial recording since the work’s premiere in 1943. They will then perform it in a concert of Ukrainian and Polish music in Warsaw.
Ukraine shoots down two Russian warplanes Ukraine’s military shot down two of Russia’s command planes on Sunday, one of the most disastrous days for the Kremlin’s air power since the start of Vladimir Putin’s full-scale invasion, Luke Harding reported. Valerii Zaluzhnyi, Ukraine’s commander in chief, said his air force had destroyed an A-50 long-range radar detection aircraft and an Il-22 control centre plane. Both were flying above the Sea of Azov on Sunday when they were hit at 9.10pm local time.
‘Spend Russia’s money now for Ukraine’s good’ The rich G7 countries froze Russian central bank reserves after the invasion of February 2022, and there have been growing demands from Kyiv for the assets to be seized and spent on reconstruction.

He shows you the article and reads it. Getting a little picky considering your sources, aren’t you?
I’m still LMAO at that Zelensky Video gif.
Sliding back and forth on the floor is hilarious.
He got the Neutron Bomb zot.
Don't know if I've ever seen more than 1 or 2 of those...
Poke! Poke Poke Poke!
>So, do Zeepers have zippers for their zappers? Or is it zappers for their zippers?<
I’ve heard from other FReepers that zeepers have beebers. However, I’m not sure about zippers.
Your ridicule is limiting
...
Yup, just like Ukriane, getting weaker by the day.

I think he needs dewormer.

Step One: DJT 2024. After he returns, this war will be brought to an end. The USA will become energy independent again. Sadly for neocons, Crimea, Donetsk, Lugansk and the rest will be Russian. Zelensky will be replaced and can live in luxurious exile as a Polish citizen.

Compared to geologic time, all of that will be a flicker of an eyelash. So it goes.
He's obviously on the Russian side of the Ukraine conflict (more evident with his take on the Hammie -Israeli conflict - promoting the Russian geopolitical view of the struggle), but that's his job.
The Duran [and Alex Christoforou & Alexander Mercouris] have to present an accurate and coherent view of international geopolitics, or else their audience will evaporate like Draft-Dodging Denny Davydov's mouthbreathing idgit audience will when the critical point of the neocon proxy war is reached.
>The brain-damaged Ukrainian Bene Gesserit...<
The members of the Ukrainian branch of the Bene Gesserit Sisterhood crave rocks and eggs. They couldn’t care less about the Spice Melange.
You KNOW that The Consortium wants to post about "Huge Win! Ukraine Strikes the Biggest Oil Depot in Ruzzia. No fuel for Z-Army"...
Perhaps the cheap vodka is flowing among the Consortium this evening?
>Compared to geologic time, all of that will be a flicker of an eyelash. So it goes.<
And all those white men will be been put through the meat grinder for nothing other than to fulfill the globalist dream of decreasing the Caucasian population.
