I was on the ground for Trump's rain-soaked July 4th celebration, where I enjoyed the Great American State Fair, then spent several hours in the pouring rain with aggrieved and unhappy thousands after the fair's inclement weather plan fell to pieces

The Seaside Daisy, or Beach Aster (Erigeron glaucus), thrives on windswept shores, sandy dunes, and rocky coastal slopes. In the language of flowers, it symbolises resilience, endurance, and beauty that blooms even in the harshest circumstances.

[George Szamuely @GeorgeSzamuely]

It is very sad that the radical exemplar of Western malevolent intervention--the breakup and destruction of Yugoslavia in the 1990s--has been largely forgotten. It served as a blueprint for later Western interventions: Iraq, Libya, Ukraine, Moldova, Georgia, Syria--the list goes on and on.

The methods the West used were always the same: setting people off against one another; manipulated, fake negotiations; isolation; sanctions of course; and eventually violence.

Here is the president of the country that was the first victim of "the End of History" gang--Serbian President Slobodan Milošević--explaining to ITN the myriad wars that the West was waging against his country.
