Leaders of the free world, do not become numb to Russia's terrorism, including most recently in #Kramatorsk. Speed up the end to this invasion by giving Ukrainians ATACMs, F16s, cluster munitions, now
@pre_historian@EnglishHeritage It's only the northern henge, within the woodland that's for sale it seems. EH declined to purchase it because of the cost of the upkeep.
That's how the whole Ponzi scheme worked.
Borrow lots money say about £64bn and instead of investing it in the company pay it to yourself as a massive dividend leaving future shareholders to deal with the car crash you created.
Now if the regulators had been doing their job?
Illegal, immoral, illegitimate, and unprovoked invasion of russia in Ukraine, so far, in a few numbers. Do not turn a blind eye to this, but rather, please open your eyes and those of others:
- 492 children killed;
- 1031 children injured;
- 9083 civilians killed (excluding Mariupol, where most likely we will discover a genocide, after seeing extensive hectares of mass graves photographed by Maxar satellites);
- 6.3 million refugees fleeing from Ukraine (without taking into account forced deportations from the illegally occupied territories by Russia in Ukraine, which according to various sources exceed 10,000 people);
-158,000 homes destroyed or damaged;
-1554 hospitals, clinics, and civilian medical facilities destroyed or damaged;
-3328 schools, high schools, and universities destroyed or damaged;
-$11.4 billion in losses due to the destruction of industrial capacities (such as AzovStal or Azom);
-$10 billion in losses due to the destruction of energy infrastructure (this is BEFORE the destruction of the Nova Khakovka dam);
-$411 billion, the value of civilian and industrial material destruction in Ukraine (this is BEFORE the destruction of the Nova Khakovka dam);
-$55.7 billion needed for environmental restoration (soil, water, air);
In reality, we are talking about genocide against an entire people. I know that genocide is the maximum level of crimes against humanity, but I own the terms and I will explain it now, not in my own words, but legally:
Let's look at what the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court says:
Article 6
Genocide
For the purpose of this Statute, "genocide" means any of the following acts committed with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnical, racial, or religious group, as such:
(a) Killing members of the group;
(b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group;
(c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part;
(d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group;
(e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.
russia is a declared sponsor state of terrorism and with these numbers, you now know they are committing genocide, by the Rome Statute.
Putin is a war criminal.
I know I will receive a shadow ban from Twitter and my tweet will only reach a few people, because I russian troll farms, but with your help, we can surpass the algorithm. All you have to do is leave a comment, retweet, and use the heart button.
This is the informational war. We will win this one too, as Ukraine will win the weapons war and liberate its entire land!

Slava Ukraini!
@AIndustrialArch Recently visited the site of Greenside Mine at Glenridding in the Lake District. An interesting but extremely complex site, so thought it would be useful to find out more. Currently reading this excellent book. Another visit in the near future is essential!
@Phil_M_Barrett @AnnLHowarth @MartinSLewis I now live in Buxton. For a while I lived just outside Hayfield. Our water came from somewhere on the moors. Not only brown, but with sprigs of heather. Fitted a filter, which also took out lots of flatworms!!
@buglerbilly@WhataBangarang@RAF_Luton Can't be in NORTH Yorkshire, otherwise it wouldn't be called MIDDLEsborough. You're obviously getting very confused here. I suggest you take a rest with a nice cup of Lancashire tea
