It doesn't matter what most people intend to do-it only takes two to get out of hand.

You want to talk about it, do it via email. You get the discussion you want, without sacrificing another thread on the altar of Ukraine.

Putin accepted Geneva too, it didn't mean a thing.

And yeah, Ukraine was operating 4 Mi-24 in support of MONUSCO in the DRC. I guess that one is one of them that they didn't have time to repaint.

As I said, it requires the cooperation of ALL parties. It does give amnesty and there is a disarmament program as a next step. However, I agree with you, it doesn't seem like it would go anywhere.

War must be, while we defend our lives against a destroyer who would devour all; but I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warrior for his glory. I love only that which they defend.

Don't know if I should post it here or in Eurovision thread.

Member of parliament (Duma) replied to Eurovision winner's song by singing a famous abstrcact from cossack song "Black Raven". Right in the parliament.

I love me some good ol' rock'n'roll.

Now I imagine whole Duma suddenly sporting Elvis hair and simultaneously getting on their feet and going air-guitar-ing all over the tables.

We are doomed. It's just that whatever is going to kill us all just happens to be, from a scientific standpoint, pretty frickin' awesome.

So, the Danish parliament launched an ad to get people voting.
'Criticised' for using sex and violence to get people to vote? Nay, more dolphins! More violence! It is not a criticism,  it is righteous democracy!

The message I got from that video was that not voting will turn me into a macho muscular sex machine. And give me a pair of dolphin pets.

A guy affiliated with the German Pirates made a video on the EU - it's in German, but even the non-German speakers should get the joke.

Is it an updated version of the 'What did the Romans ever do for us?' sketch from the life of Brian? Because that's what it looks like.

Ayup. It's fairly well done, too!
