With Russia on the brink of invading their country lawmakers in the Ukraine parliament have held aloft flags of countries offering support and military aid at their time of need.
No sign of the EU flag.
Another flag prominent by its absence ?
Germany apparently values gas more highly than courage.
History repeating itself.

Not sure any British person can claim to hold the high moral ground when it comes to illegal and murderous military invasions, eh Charger? At least Russia can rightly claim it’s acting in self defence and to date, within its own borders.

Naval Service monitoring transit of Russian warships through Irish-controlled waters ‘ – is the big headline in the online version of the Irish Times.
The article confidently reports that two Russian frigates are being monitored by Royal Navy frigate HMS Argyll and the US navy destroyer USS Roosevelt.
Yet curiously even though the Irish navy is ‘ monitoring ‘ the situation ‘ the current
location of the vessels is unknown ‘ – presumably because their transponders are switched off so can’t be seen on freely-available online ship tracking websites.
And can’t even confirm whether there’s an Irish navy vessel at sea in the area.
‘ The Defence Forces said it does not comment on specific operational deployments.’
So the Yanks and Tans have named ships and aircraft shadowing the Ruskies but Ireland won’t reveal top navy secrets and doesn’t know exactly where the vessels are anyway even though it’s ‘ monitoring ‘ them through Irish-controlled waters.

For an exercise in utter delusion nothing quite beats this rubbish being pedalled in the Irish Times about how Putin beat a retreat thanks to Irish diplomacy.
There are rich pickings among the seam of drivel.
” The controversy over Ukraine offered Ireland an opportunity to test the benefits of the soft power we have accumulated through our neutralist internationalism and accelerated through our UN role. ”
Apparently the Russians blinked because even though Ireland is a non-permanent member of the UN Security Council
” We have led debates about climate security, passed resolutions on UN peacekeeping and helped bring issues such as the conflict in Ethiopia to the table.”
However the real giveaway was the line ” with the goodwill and strong multilateral relations that Ireland has built up at the UN, but also within the EU during the Brexit process,”
For it turns out the role of the author
Professor Alanna O’Malley as Chair of United Nations Studies in Peace and Justice at Leiden University in The Netherlands is entirely funded by the EU.
Not that this is mentioned anywhere by the Irish Times.
Champagne all round.

My mother loved Plato but sadly thought James Joyce way above her education .
I often smile as I see them all dressed up as Joyce outside cavistons each year .
But I did not smile when cavistons sold me a seafood platter at €330.00 for a wedding of 8people last year at the height of the pandemic .
Such poetic lines like oh wonderful wild smoked salmon and the prawns just so delicious and the organic wild salmon (how can anything wild be organic in the sea)

Community unity at its best- trucks of free food at the Alberta Convoy protest.
Ah that’s nice. Thing is, Baby Castro isn’t even very good at throwing the old clichés. On vaccines. no politician on this side of the world would dream of using the ‘safe and effective’ mantra these days- because everyone knows they are neither.
Powerful speech by an American politician called Del. Freitas on this subject. I know nothing else about him apart from this speech btw- but he is on the mark.
Hopefully it will protect the homeless from being beaten up and having their food taken by truckers who seem to forget the $7million raised for them.
SOQ
They are also feeding the homeless genius, as well as collecting their own garbage- and it is now over 10 million.
That they actually have homeless in such conditions is probably the trucker’s fault too according to you I expect.

Dr Robert Malone joins ‘The Dana Show’
On Facebook- “I am touch with various groups of lawyers that are really looking forward to the opportunity that Zuckerburg has created. To take on his company because I think he has left himself with a huge liability. Basically what he has done is he has supressed the information that patients needed to have true informed consent.
So a case can be made, in my opinion, that the patients who have suffered adverse events, would have been avoided if they had to been able to really get the information about the potential risks, have a court case against Zuckerburg and his company- as well as Twitter.”
