    For me, it was a rare event. But certainly worth the effort.

    @LuFins-Dad said in Can Ukraine push back?:

    @Klaus

    presumably no access to replacement parts etc.

    Or a skillset to operate them. Though, I suppose a Zoom meeting might take care of that.

    I need to see a video of that…

    “Alexei is muted.. Click on the thing… No, that was your camera, click on the other thing… Ok, we can hear you but not see you. Click on the camera. There, that’s better, but it looks like you have the cat filter o….You know what? Screw it, let’s move on…”

    Ok, that made me laugh.

    Last November, a revolution came to life in Virginia, a rebellion by parents who wanted a say into what their kids were being taught in school, mainly about race.

    A good way to phrase that. CRT not explicitly mentioned, and therefore no opening for a knee-jerk eyeroll giggly dismissal from the programmed leftist response.

    You go, girl.

    (Although the soldier was trying to be cool and civil, FWIW.)

    Maybe the Taliban will train the Ukrainian military over Zoom?

    Good backgrounder from Axios: https://www.axios.com/us-ukraine-troop-training-47be92ec-3693-4f60-88b8-19ff0055134e.html

    Point: Votes could come as soon as next week.

    Point: House Armed Services Chairman Adam Smith (D-Wash.) told CNN the odds of passing a bill "in a rapid enough fashion to repel the invasion are remote."

    Point: Ukrainian forces so far have been buoyed by foreign military aid and drastic modernization since 2014.

    In this article anyway, I see no set-in-place plan, but rather are "considering ways to train Ukrainian forces remotely."

    @Jolly I saw a story today, can't remember where, making the case that possessing a nuclear arsenal by small(er) countries might actually be a good thing, because of MAD.
