I have been compiling stories and sources about Russia and Ukraine at my blog on Tumblr. Take a look. Lotsa good stuff. The design is different from this blog. Tons of links. Kinda like my version of the Drudge Report. But, of course, better, much better.

INSIDE OKHTYRKA, A CITY IN NORTHEAST UKRAINE
“’Six people were killed here,’ he said. ‘Three people there.’ He preferred not to offer an overall death toll so as ‘not to frighten the citizens.’” That is the mayor.

Catastrophic consequences
“A HATRED THAT WILL HAVE
NO END AND KNOW NO BORDERS”
“One hundred and fifty years ago, on January 18, 1871, the German Empire was proclaimed in Versailles’ Hall of Mirrors, which the troops of the German states had just captured in the Franco-Prussian War of 1870-71.”
“The choice of January 18 for the proclamation that marked Germany’s birth as a unified nation was not accidental: it was the anniversary of the coronation in 1701 of the first king of Prussia.”
Tsar Alexander II of Russia warned Wilhelm, the Prussian king, that if the Germans forced France to concede long-held territory it would instill “a hatred between peoples that will have no end and know no borders” with “catastrophic consequences for all of Europe.”

Those Who Bake Are an Enemy of the State!
Authorities in Venezuela, homeland of the late Hugo Chavez, have been rounding up bakers, as in those who make tasty goodies in ovens, for making too much food and not following whatever stupid rules the bureaucrats have dictated.

“History belongs not to the seers but rather those with the best reflexes.”
“History belongs
not to the seers
but rather
those with the best reflexes.”
This is from a piece by Chris Stirewalt of Fox News. The assassination of the Russian ambassador in Turkey has brought about much speculation and even some introspection. The headline is apt. History reasserts itself.
