In front of the Lincoln Memorial Sunday, pro-Ukrainian protesters played a lullaby video over images of infants, singing: "If you don't close the sky, I will die."

Activism, Uncensored: In Washington, Calls to "Close the Sky"

www.racket.news

TK partners News2Share capture a pro-Ukrainian demonstration in Washington from this weekend, featuring calls for a no-fly zone and speeches by the likes of casual-dressed neoconservative Bill Kristol, who said, “We are coming to the help of those who are fighting for Europe.” Democratic strategist Adam Parkhomenko added, “Putin does not believe in the power of the human spirit… we cannot compromise with evil.” In a video appearance, President Volodymyr Zelensky made a direct appeal to the West. “It is only the beginning for Russia on Ukrainian land,” he said. “Russia is trying to defeat the freedom of all people in Europe.”

The most intense footage was a prepared video montage of parents embracing their infant children, over a lullaby featuring the lyrics: “If you don’t close the sky, I will die.”

In other news, sources in the Biden administration have confirmed that Will Smith's assault on Chris Rock at last night's Oscar ceremony was personally authorized by Vladimir Putin. "Smith clearly used a Kremlin-linked slap technique," said CIA head William Burns. "We've seen this kind of weaponized Muscovite man-slap used over and over against innocent civilians in Mariupol and elsewhere in Ukraine." President Biden said, "He can't remain in power now. Smith cannot remain in power in Hollywood."

Try to close the sky and we all could die, including those precious babies.

There appear to be a lot of morons that think a direct conflict between two nuclear armed powers won't or can't end up as a holocaust for all of humanity.
