But this time in reverse. As Russia is blockading Ukraine's export of much needed grain to under-developed nations... as Russia is once again seeking to weaponize food through resultant starvation... let NATO step in and airlift Ukraine's grain to a port outside the reach of any Russian restriction.

The whole of bloody England
Have you heard? The whole of bloody England is in a right uproar now. Everyone is making and taking bets on what Boris Johnson is going to do next. Ten quid on stand-up comedian. Twenty quid on hair stylist. Thirty quid on male stripper. Let's hope it doesn't break the global economy.

Israeli Jews should learn morality from Ukraine
After one terrorist attack in Israel, the ultra-right, religious-extremist government of Benjamin Netanyahu is set to impose atrocities on the families of the terrorists. Is it ethical? Absolutely not. Will it yield a good social result? Though Netanyahu might reap some crude political gain, Israel as a whole can only lose.

Long-range support
Up till now NATO has provided short-range and short-term support to Ukraine. With today's extensive and intended rocket attacks on civilian centers throughout Ukraine, Putin has escalated the war, taking his invasion of Ukraine to a new level of barbarism. And, yes, Putin's action was totally immoral and completely contrary to international law (such as it is) and the Geneva Conventions (signed after World War II). By openly boasting about these attacks on Ukraine, Putin only confesses his guilt to heinous war crimes.
So now the time has come for NATO to step up with much more comprehensive support for Ukraine. Ukraine (and Sweden and Finland) should be admitted immediately into NATO, and longer range military support must be provided to Ukraine so that precision attacks may be made upon key infrastructural support targets deep within Russia. To be clear, I am not endorsing the dropping of rockets on the Kremlin (or sending rockets into the center of Moscow at rush hour, as Putin did today in respect to Kyiv and other major cities in Ukraine). That would be countering war crimes with more war crimes. But Ukraine is fully justified in attacking secondary military targets (supply lines and Russian military installations) used to bolster the Russian aggression. Indeed, Ukraine was already justified in doing so. On top of all this, efforts should be made by NATO to bring Vladimir Putin, the current and long-time President of Russia, to justice.

Britain trussed for baking
Why does it seem that the Brits never manage to make up their minds about anything these days? Even Elizabeth can't work up any enthusiasm for installing the new PM.😀
