General Ratko Mladić, convicted of genocide, died at the age of 83 after a lengthy sentence during which he was held responsible for the Srebrenica massacre and other war crimes, in which tens of thousands of people were killed in the Balkan wars. (translated)
At this stage, Putin's Russia is capable of dirty warfare and threats. It significantly escalates the series of attacks already started. The goal: to intimidate Europe into retreating, so that Ukraine cannot win the war. It's not worth giving in. That's the only way to avoid war. (translated)
Asepalveluksen suorittaneena, sodanajan sijoituksen omaavana, palvelukseen kutsuttavana, henkeni uhraamiseen valmiina olevana miehenä - puolustusvero tuntuu oikeastaan pelkästään suurelta sylkäisyltä kasvoilleni. Anna ensin rahasi ja mene sen jälkeen rintamalle uhraamaan henkesi. #puolustus #sota #isänmaa
🇵🇱 Drodzy Polscy Przyjaciele! W ostatnich dniach chwaliłem Wasze drogi, Żabki, Orliki… wczoraj jeszcze nasze termy. Ale teraz zasiądźmy do stołu. Bez kilometrów i rywalizacji. Po prostu: co Wy jecie, co my jemy - i co kradniemy sobie nawzajem z talerza. 😁 Z Waszych dań my, Węgrzy, często zakochujemy się w prostych, sycących rzeczach. Pierogi ruskie. Żurek z kiełbasą. Oscypek z żurawiną. Kotlet schabowy z kapustą kiszoną. Do tego zimne piwo albo czysta wódka. Żadnych cyrków, pełny brzuch, koniec dyskusji. A Wy u nas? Słyszę to już od lat. Lángos. Gulasz. Kürtöskalács. Lecsó. No i oczywiście pálinka, po której człowiek nagle zaczyna rozumieć węgierską historię. Jak schodzicie na południe, z bufetu zawsze najpierw znika ten tłuściutki, czosnkowy, serowy lángos. Nie kłammy, lángos to Wasz letni romans z Węgrami. I jest jeszcze coś, bez czego u nas lato nie jest latem: Fröccs. Wino z sodą. Proste? Proste. Ale to nasza narodowa klimatyzacja w kieliszku. Mały fröccs, duży fröccs, „długi krok”, „sportowy”… ile wina, tyle sody, tyle nastroju. W upał to nie napój. To system przetrwania. Inny klimat, ten sam apetyt. Wy kisicie, parujecie i lepicie ciasto. My papryką palimy, w tłuszczu kąpiemy i wino z sodą mieszamy, jakby to była nasza filozofia. Więc nie ma rankingu. Kiedy jestem u Was, siadam do miski pierogów - a gdy Wy wpadacie na południe, wciskam Wam w rękę zimnego fröccsa i gorącego lángosa. Ale zdradźcie mi: jakie jest to jedno Wasze danie w Polsce, bez którego nie ma życia, i na co polujecie w pierwszej kolejności zaraz po przekroczeniu węgierskiej granicy? Bierzcie widelce. Stół jest wspólny. 🇭🇺🤝🇵🇱🍲🍷 #Polska #Węgry #Kuchnia #Pierogi #Lángos #Fröccs #Gulasz #PolakWęgier #Polska #Kuchnia #Jedzenie

Medvedevin sanat eivät yllätä. Yllättävämpää on, miten johdonmukaisesti Stubbin oma käytös niitä ruokkii. Ensimmäisellä valtiovierailullaan Ruotsiin Stubb ilmoitti, ettei ole koskaan tuntenut itseään niin ruotsalaiseksi. Psykologisesti se on harvinaisen selkeä signaali: identiteetti ei ole ankkuroitunut. Kun oma kansallinen perusta on hatara, ihminen alkaa etsiä hyväksyntää ulkopuolelta. Ja juuri sitä Stubb on tehnyt. Hän on WEF-marionetti ja EU-federalisti, joka puhuu kansallisvaltioiden hävittämisestä kuin se olisi edistystä. Hän allekirjoitti Kiovassa 10-vuotisen turvallisuussopimuksen ja julisti Ukrainan sodan Suomen sodaksi. Hän ennusti joulukuussa 2023, että Venäjä on jo hävinnyt, ja tammikuussa 2024, että tavoitteena on saada Putin häviämään. Realiteetit eivät ole seuranneet. Samaan aikaan Venäjä-suhde on ryssitty ja Yhdysvaltoihin nojaaminen entistä epävarmempaa. Molemmissa suunnissa Suomen oma ääni on vaimentunut ja liikkumatila kaventunut. Psykologisesti kiinnostavinta on se, ettei Stubbilla ole omia suoria linjauksia. Hän omaksuu sen mielipiteen, jonka kuvittelee olevan suosittu, ja vaihtaa sitä tarpeen mukaan. Ulkopuoliset tahot ohjaavat liikkeitä. Selkäranka taipuu sinne, mistä hyväksyntää tulee eniten. Stubb ei ole idiootti. Hän on jotain hyödyllisempää. Mies, jonka linjat taipuvat aina sinne, mistä hyväksyntää sataa ja juuri siksi häntä kannattaa käyttää. Kun presidentin kanta vaihtuu sen mukaan, mikä kulloinkin tuntuu suositulta, kyseessä ei ole enää poliittinen joustavuus. Se on selkärangan puutetta. Moraalista tyhjyyttä. Sätkynukkena toimimista, jossa naruja pitelevät aina joku muu. Ja siihen on jo aivan riittävästi näyttöä. Kysymys ei ole enää siitä, mitä Medvedev sanoo. Kysymys on siitä, kuinka pitkään suomalaiset suostuvat katsomaan tätä esitystä. #wefpuppets #politics #Finland #identity

Insegno vs Ranucci Febbraio 2019. Michela Andreozzi, attrice, regista e sceneggiatrice, in un programma di cinema storpia il nome della Lazio e dice “Lazie”. Una battuta da niente. Fabrizio Piscitelli, Diabolik, leader degli Irriducibili, gira il link a Pino Insegno. Piscitelli non è soltanto un capo ultrà: è un uomo inserito negli ambienti della criminalità romana, con legami con il narcotraffico e gruppi criminali. Sei mesi dopo verrà assassinato con un colpo di pistola alla testa al Parco degli Acquedotti, in un agguato maturato, secondo la ricostruzione giudiziaria, nel contesto della criminalità organizzata romana. Insegno gli manda il numero di cellulare privato della collega. Poco dopo Andreozzi riceve una telefonata da un numero sconosciuto. È Piscitelli. Le parla con un tono che lei definirà inquietante e le chiede di rimediare a quella battuta. Poi il suo numero viene passato ai sodali e parte la campagna contro di lei. Insulti, minacce, attacchi sui social. Andreozzi chiude il profilo Twitter e non lo riaprirà più. Si scusa pubblicamente per paura. Insegno è un collega che conosce da oltre trent’anni. Le chat le ha pubblicate Domani. Insegno non ha negato il rapporto con Piscitelli: “Fabrizio era un amico”. Amico, il criminale. Sul numero dato alla collega ha risposto che il contratto con la Rai non gli consente di rilasciare dichiarazioni senza autorizzazione. La Rai non ha aperto alcun caso pubblico. Nessuna istruttoria annunciata, nessuna nota aziendale, nessuna questione di opportunità. Con Ranucci è andata diversamente. In poche settimane la sua permanenza alla guida di Report è diventata una questione di opportunità, è intervenuto il Comitato etico e la Rai lo ha sostituito. Passare il numero privato di una collega a Diabolik non ha aperto una questione di opportunità. Fare inchieste, sì. #Criminalità #Televisione #FattiDiCronaca
