entrapment......Andriy Zagorodnyuk, Ukraine’s former defense minister, and Eliot Cohen, Arleigh Burke Chair in Strategy at the Center for Strategic and International Studies, accurately diagnose a central ailment of the West’s Ukraine policy in a new Foreign Affairs op-ed: The Biden administration and its European counterparts have failed to articulate their endgame for this war. Three years into the conflict, Western planning continues to be strategically backwards—aiding Kiev has become an end in itself, divorced from a coherent strategy for bringing the war to a close.
immunological upgrades.....Four years later, many people are investigating how our lives were completely upended by a pandemic response. Over my time on the case, I’ve heard countless theories.

THE LAST THING GUS — POLITICAL CARTOONING SINCE 1951 — WOULD DO IS BEING A SKETCH ARTIST IN A COURT ROOM, ESPECIALLY ONE WHERE THE PROSECUTION WITNESSES ARE CROOKS AND LIARS, WITH A BIASED JUDGE IN FAVOUR OF A CONVICTION WHEN NO CRIME HAS BEEN COMMITTED....

a desperate illegitimate little despot......Betting on Armageddon: What is Zelensky’s plan now that his term is over? On 20 May, something important changed for Ukraine’s Vladimir Zelensky. On that day, the five-year presidential term for which he had been elected in 2019 came to an end. He remains in office, however, without having to face fresh elections. Zelensky’s critics, including within Ukraine, argue that he is now illegitimate in a strict, constitutional sense – in effect, a usurper. His followers and defenders, including in the West, insist that Zelensky legally remains president under martial law.

sunak hopes an early election will minimise his party's losses.....UK Snap Election Promises 'Rude' Campaign Amid Political Discontent Political analysts weigh in on the Conservatives' chances in the upcoming UK election, citing economic concerns and voter disillusionment. It would be “truly astonishing” if the Conservatives win on July 4, Mark Garnett, a politics professor at Lancaster University, told Sputnik. Sunak hopes an early election will minimise his party's losses, “banking on good economic news” like falling inflation, the academic noted. “Calling the election for July suggests he has given up hope that other things could improve between now and the end of 2024,” Garnett said.
yuckraine is a lost cause.... time to make a retreat and a deal....Ukraine is losing, and direct intervention by the West risks a nuclear conflict – so what now? As it seeks to minimize its own risks, the US-led bloc is about to hit a dead end... In our last article, we analyzed Kiev’s military prospects in light of its new mobilization law.
