A 98-year old was given standing ovation by the Canadian parliament during Zelensky's speech.
He was hailed as a hero for fighting against the Russians.
Yaroslav Hunk fought for the 14th division of the Waffen SS.
President Zelenskyy has determined that democracy in Ukraine is best protected by banning opposition parties and delaying elections until after Russia has been ejected entirely from the fatherland.

@paleomanmd Maybe a million. Maybe. I remember reading an article a few years ago where the Kosovo authorities had to shut down busses to Belgrade because of the overcrowding in Pristina at the bus stops. People would stand the entire trip, just to get to BG and get a passport to leave.
SHOCK: The Capitol Police refused to allow students to sing the National Anthem in U.S. Capitol explaining that, "it might offend someone/cause issues." The students were allowed to sing other less controversial songs. @SpeakerMcCarthy

We are told in America that Russia was totally unprovoked, that we must protect Taiwan from China, because we are the defenders of democracy
Reality is that the US is a dying Empire trying to destroy their largest military and economic rivals to try to maintain their hegemony
Hungarians love freedom and sovereignty. This is why we don’t like to be lectured or educated. Every nation has the right to determine their own way of life. #ThisIsTheWay@QatarEconForum
@USEmbassySJJ How do you respond towards half of a nation that is ridiculed, suffocated, and generally disgusted by the other half? Could this not be a potential Czechoslovakia? A PEACEFUL divorce overseen by the US? Why not take the lead and facilitate it?
The neocon press cycle:
1) New threat to American Democracy in country X!
2) Anyone who questions this narrative is unpatriotic/traitor.
3) Victory is imminent and guaranteed.
4) Victory will take time but is worth it.
5) If we don’t redouble our efforts, we will lose.
6) Setbacks were inevitable.
7) Internal doubts and a lack of staying power cost us the war.
8) Press blackout on country X. (Never that important.)
Wait 6 months. Repeat with country Y.
