More on the subject of Ukraine, by former US intelligence officer Scott Ritter, who told the world back in the 2nd Gulf War in his capacity as UN Weapons Inspector, that Iraq had no WMDs therefore the pretense for war was invalid. Turned out he was right!

This afternoon I cycled to the Don River in the heart of Toronto to see if I could catch some salmon doing the annual run, swimming upstream over rapids and dams to get to their birthplace to spawn. I was lucky. This grab is upstream to the falls which was too crowded, so I found this secluded spot.

This is categorically not true! The EU released sanctions on grain, but only for their use, not the poorer nations. That's colonialism in the extreme. Rather than parodying what the NYT says, which isn't a reliable source as they just regurgitate what the government talking points are. Geesus, poeple need to educate themselves in geopolitics and look at the details. Use more sources, not only western. The EU has been holding ships in their ports that are loaded with grain, because of sanctions. The UN is working on getting this worked out, but it's complicated because of politics. Isn't that always the case with the West?!
