Thanks for keeping us updated with how you are doing. Your strength is amazing.
The book I am reading right now, The Last Green Valley by Mark Sullivan is about a Ukrainian family driven from their home by Stalin during WWll and it is rather like history repeating itself now. Knowing history is important.

Very important! As you can see, sometimes it's even a matter of survival. If our people know the true history (not those tales we were told in soviet school) I believe Maidan in 2013-14 would never happen, and Ukraine would be a prosperous and peaceful country. Actually, we are peace-loving. If you could see how many humor this war has spawned. Not only anger.
I will not reply to all this. Just wish you one day to go through Ukrainians go these days.
where are you from?
True or not, I hardly think RT should be trusted as an impartial reporter on the matter. And how many people does this justify Russia killing exactly?
My understanding is that most of the neo-nazi accusations revolve around the Azov regiment, a 900 member volunteer force. I'm not defending anything they have done. I'm just saying I don't see how it justifies Russia invading all of Ukraine.
So far, somewhere around 300 civilians have been killed already (an old number that is likely higher now) and there are expected to be at least a million refugees. Once again, how many people do you think Russia is justified in killing? Everybody in Ukraine? Are you saying all Ukrainians are Nazi sympathizers? What even are Russia's demands here? Russia already intervened in Donbas years ago and have effectively controlled it since. This goes well beyond that. But you think Putin's invasion of Ukraine is out of the kindness of his heart? As far as I can tell, he wants to set up a puppet regime that supports Russia, replacing the current president (who happens to be Jewish...not a likely Nazi) and administration. I suppose he annexed Crimea because Nazis too...
