"Against Capital Punishment" (1906): S. Bulgakov posits capital punishment as partaking of that evil which is inevitably embodied in an ill-conceived, godless law that forces individuals to participate in a cold, indifferent execution.

What ????
This is indeed a clumsy attempt at divide-and-conquer.

The "future" of NATO without France, the Baltic countries or UK is a very strange attempt at "manifesting" rubbish into existence (yet again).

Looks like:

Baltics: sacrificial cows.

UK+FR: don't look at their nukes, let us provide.

Sigh 🙄
❗️The United States is organizing a working meeting in Poland on the future of NATO without inviting the United Kingdom, France, or the Baltic states. The initiator is Elbridge Colby from the Pentagon. Those invited are Norway, Sweden, Finland, Poland, Germany, and the Netherlands.

The New Yorker has some concerning reporting in its deep dive on Jared Kushner suggesting that a future Russia/Ukraine peace deal could be tied to potential Russian business deals for Trump, Kushner and Witkoff.

Kushner on Ukraine:

“President Putin's laid out his line of what he wants to achieve. If Ukraine, you know, wanted to withdraw to that line, then obviously, you know, we have the rest of the deal set up and put together. Ukraine right now does not want to do that.”

Thorough analysis of Kiryll’s (Russian) ideology in this very relevant but according to the review not so good or compelling book
„A dangerous book doesn’t need to be good literature.“
Russian Orthodox Patriarch Kirill has a new book on war. We asked historian Ilya Venyavkin to unpack its ideology.

This would make Joseph Goebbels blush: the US is now trying to pin the blame for the rise in global oil prices on Ukraine!

"We are going through an energy shock right now due to both the war in Ukraine, because Ukraine has decided that they want to blow up Russian energy assets and refine products, so that is creating upward price pressure

Republicans who see Canada as an enemy has leapt up this year, similar to how Republicans’ approval of Putin shot up in 2016.

Virtually no anti-Canada US constituency before this year, and virtually no pro-Putin constituency before 2016.

Out of nowhere. Now millions say that’s their position.

This summer's food recalls are broader in scope, longer-lasting, and more severe than past years as regulators are slow to respond.

The parasite surveillance staff at the CDC, which responds to outbreaks (such as cyclosporiasis), was downsized last year by DOGE from 11 people to three.

Duitse expert is (ook) van mening dat de boete in NL te rechtvaardigen is gezien de wetgeving alhier - waar (uiteraard) ook journalisten zich aan dienen te houden.

Een beroep op de vrijheid van meningsuiting slaat bovendien nergens op - zeker niet in deze casus.
