“At 17 he falls in love quite madly
with eyes of azure blue,
At 24 he gets it rather badly
with eyes of a different hue.
At 36 you’ll find him flirting sadly
with two or three or more;
When he fancies he is past love,
It is then he meets his last love,
And he loves her as he’s never loved before.”
1917, a different age, and with rather different use of language, looking at the title of the song!

I disagree with Goodwin there on one point: “Ukraine” (Kiev regime) does not need to be involved in negotiations to end the war, because Zelensky’s cabal has no legitimacy and, crucially, without outside help the Kiev regime side would collapse in weeks, maybe even in days. The Kiev regime is only a player in the war by proxy, not by reason of its own power.

Deutschland erwache!

Both Islamism and Zionism are antipathetic to Europe’s destiny, as are the sweepings of Africa and elsewhere.

[“FM Sergey Lavrov: Over the past 500 years – as the West has more or less taken the shape as we know it today, with certain modifications, of course – all the world’s tragedies have originated in Europe or have occurred because of European policies. http://t.me/RusEmbUK/2045“— TASS]
At least half-true but, by the same token, almost all the great advances of civilization over the past 500 years were achieved in Europe by Europeans, or by Europeans operating elsewhere, e.g. North America.
As Rudolf Steiner said, “Europe is the head-organism of the world“.
[“We give them a de facto NATO membership”: Finnish President @alexstubb shares his idea for a Ukraine security guarantee.“]
Do idiots like that Finn, or Starmer, understand that, if European states give the Kiev regime a “security guarantee” (because the USA will not), and that then leads to direct conflict with Russia without any US backing for Europe, those European states might end up devastated by nuclear weapons, with the US taking no part.
Don’t pretend that even all the European NATO states combined could “win” (in any sense) against Russia. In any case, only a few states are truly on board with this stupid “fight Russia” idea.
That smug Finn thinks he is so clever, when he seems to me to be utterly stupid.
Late music

Europe is ready !

Norwegians. They had money left over in their military budget so decided to teach their troops to dance.

Many homosexual men and women did serve during WWI and WWII but at the time homosexuality was still illegal in the UK. Any soldier who was discovered to be gay was Court Marshalled.

Sergei Lavrov says: “all the world’s tragedies have originated in Europe or have occurred because of European policies.”
Let me fix that for him: all the world’s tragedies have originated with the (((REDACTEDS))) or have occurred because of (((REDACTED))) policies and actions.

Friend of Britain:
That goes further even than I would!
As for Lavrov, of course he qualified it by adding the rubric “the past 500 years” (so not needing to explain away Genghiz Khan etc).
Certainly the (((REDACTEDS))) are an absolute curse on us, and have been for many centuries.
