arresting on rooftops now ?

Well indeed, perhaps the song remains the same ? Former Georgian President/ Prime Minister  Mikhail Saakashvilli being arrested on a rooftop.  I am happy to hear that he is shaken up, yet basically okay. Certainly he's a dedicated reformer. https://inforesist.org/uroki-avgusta-dlya-ukrainyi/ And yet, what about my totally unattributable story that North Korea got it's Nuclear Weapons material from Ukraine's  supposedly reprocessed weapons grade fissionable material  from the dismantling of their cache of dismantled Nuclear weaponry, and "research grade " materials ? I am probably high on my own imagination, yet Those materials got transported and reprocessed by The Russian Federation in accordance with the International agreements of the Budapest Memorandum.  Perhaps the chain of custody from weapons Grade material to Nuclear fuel rod material ought to be reviewed? Russia should, and deserves in some way to be a solid partner in global security. But

Existential Ukraine, or a letter to Santa ?

Existential Ukraine, or a letter to Santa Claus ? It is closing in on 10 years since I made my first phone call in Ukraine. What was it about ? Nothing important . Where did I make the call ? from the Prosecutor's office. Who was the call made to? Nobody important or significant. Why did you make the call from there, at that time? It is not important, and rather a long story I don't care to get into telling. How did you wind up there ? Again, part of a longer story, not worth telling. What was your experience there ? I saw a lot of huge, huge stacks of paper in the offices, trying to get digitized, eventually. Who did you know that got you there ? Again, it's not important. I am only an ex-professional dishwasher, not a spy, just a regular guy. I don't work for any government, or consortium. It is just me. I am simply random ,and definitely unsponsored in my activities. What is your message ? who knows ,  what I hope to emphasize herein. Did the Christmas letter an

A Box of Rain?

Thinking back to my unique vantage point of quietly seeing Ukraine in the late 2013, the different cities in the East I visited, that sense of an oddly normal feeling. Watching peaceful, yet ardent Student protest in Dnipro marching down Karla Marx Boulevard to the shopping centers to rally, and seeing them catch a little guff from older people,  for their pro-EU stance. Really, it was a strangely peaceful bubble then. What happened in our US election meddling was certainly a direct outcome,  of the EuroMaidan's success , along with the Magnitsky act's implementation. Now,  as President Trump is still getting his "sea legs" as CINC/ POTUS,  he still has that vaguely untouchable status with the RUssian Federation and Kremlin leadership, yet as I read this conclusion to this well thought out piece in Salon Magazine , https://www.salon.com/2017/11/10/former-fbi-counter-spy-on-mueller-trump-and-putin-russia-is-winning/  and as I struggled in my mind to come up with a

well things never stop being spicy and interesting in Ukraine, while the USA has got vaguely more interesting, nothing usually tops Ukraine's Dance with fate these days or "I looked at the road, and I see it needs fixing" well it is certain that the 100 Billion $'s that Paul Manafort and his buddies in the Party of regions stole , didn't get stolen from nowhere, they stole the roads of this large nation,,  back then during the UEFA soccer tournament preparations in Ukraine,  (was not a really, really big bag of cash,  fallen out of the truck on that bouncy road,  between Kiev and Odessa ?) well it was only the payroll for those road workers, who cares about them ? I am joking , of course, yet today nobody can take a joke anymore... and they stole the school textbooks, they stole the teacher's and the salary raises of the police and just about everyone else. If you hear it from them , it's something like that  the Party of Regions was perha
