Very emotional moment from the interview with Zelenskyy. You should watch this.

JOURNALIST: Do you miss being an actor?

ZELENSKYY:?I miss being a good father.

JOURNALIST: When your children were little, what did you tell them the most? What was the thing that you told them the most when they were small?

ZELENSKYY: I love you.

JOURNALIST: And what do you tell them now that they're older?

ZELENSKYY: Oh, I miss you.

JOURNALIST: When was the last time you cried?

ZELENSKYY: I will try to do it after our interview. No, I mean this, between us. I'm a normal man and then there are a lot of different moments, between us, almost each day, a lot of losses on the battlefield and civilians, and there are absolutely crazy attacks on our people.

And I'm just, it's… I mean, It's very difficult really, when I give orders (medals). I said about it. It's always difficult for me when I give orders (medals) to the mothers and fathers, who lost their children. In such moments, really, I often cry.

JOURNALIST: Are you a hero?

ZELENSKYY: No.

JOURNALIST: So who is your hero?

ZELENSKYY:?My hero? My children, my army, our army, and Ukrainian people. So I'm a part… I'm also a Ukrainian, so I'm a part of our nation. But now our nation, I think, that our nation is absolutely heroic.

The Islamic State claimed responsibility for the attack in al-Raqqah that happened yesterday

Interestingly, they still note at the end a reference to a U.S. military presence at the base even though the U.S. completed its military withdrawal from Syria in April.

Die zunehmend politisierte Gewalt von Links und die Bestialität von Migranten erinnern zunehmend an die 20er und 30 Jahre. Da der Staat und die Altparteien das ungerührt hinnehmen wachsen die Wut der Einheimischen und Integrierten zusammen. Will Rotgrünschwarz den Bürgerkrieg riskieren? https://t.co/04MA0LTjNB

@Grampsknos @magattew You might look upo what the "Sharpe ratio" means: High returns for those with high risk. Low returns for those who don't take risk.
Sharpe was talking about investment, but one can see the laborer as a kind of low risk investor too (he invests work and time for fixed returns).

France's Foreign Minister put it well:

A strike on the Lavra is the equivalent of bombing Notre-Dame.

This is what russia calls defending Christianity.

Yesterday, in broad daylight in Poland, the artist Semyon Skrepetsky was killed. According to journalists, the suspect attempted to hide on the premises of the Belarusian consulate.

Even though Skrepetsky had certain disagreements with (many) people online, me included, his art was mostly targeting the right people and the right issues. He was an eccentric person who did not care much about the opinion of others on his views.

Do you remember the 2015 terrorist attack – the massacre at the offices of Charlie Hebdo? Back then, 12 people were murdered in broad daylight over cartoons.

In my view, the Charlie Hebdo cartoons were hardly worthy of praise. Many of them were quite vile, at times mocking things that should never be mocked (and I’m not talking about religion). But contrary to what particularly sensitive individuals may think, that is absolutely no reason to gun down their authors.

I’ll go further: even if you dislike someone, you should not be particularly pleased – or even calmly indifferent – when that person is murdered in broad daylight on the streets of a European city. If that is your reaction, perhaps a splash of cold water on your head might help prompt some reflection.

Either we are dealing with state-sponsored terrorism on the territory of the European Union, or we are not. And if we are – and if some especially thin-skinned FSB official or some other government functionary decided that a certain witty fellow needed to be taken out, which for now is very much what it looks like – then this is yet another alarm bell that cannot be ignored under any circumstances.

"No."

"Why not?"

US Borrows Iran's Own Trick to Skirt the Hormuz Checkpoint

The U.S. military has been overseeing covert ship-to-ship oil transfers in the Gulf of Oman since early May, using a method long deployed by Iranians to evade sanctions.

i would argue they always had that ability :-D . only new thing was to see it in action, triggered by the war

[Zachary Cohen @ZcohenCNN]

New: US intel agencies have recently assessed that Iran can effectively turn the Strait of Hormuz on & off -- at will -- going forward, meaning it has acquired a powerful new ability to hurt the global economy as a result of Trump/Israel starting the war, sources tell me & @NatashaBertrand.

“We have now handed Iran de facto control over the strait – a weapon more powerful than any nuke,” 1 of the sources said.

@RKiesewetter Tja, Deutschland hat sich ja vornehm zurückgehalten als um Hilfe gebeten wurde... anstatt dieses Regime ein für alle Mal einzustampfen. Da können wir jetzt nicht meckern

Netanyahu:

Whoever tells you that we can do everything—that we can conquer half of Europe if we just decide to—that's not true.

And whoever tells you that we can completely disregard what the United States says—that's also not true.

We do take it into consideration, and we appreciate it as well.
