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."
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.
bill kristol has to be one of the most loathsome americans of the past generation or so, maybe this side of the cheneys.
we are suffering through all this warmongering partly because none of the architects of the iraq disaster had to suffer any consequences or face any personal responsibility.
Yes, Matt Taibbi, the destruction of Mariupol was just one of those things that happen. Bill Kristol is an asshole, its not my problem and aw fuck, I spilled my beer. There was a time, when good people, common people, read about Spain, read about Guernica, and were moved at act. Orwell, who you wrote of a while back, was one of them. Ultimately, only two countries, Nazi Germany and Stalin's Russia, aided the combatants in Spain. Western democracies sat. they wrung their hands as they lamented the brutalities. Their appeals for peace, shouted from a sober distance as propaganda images of "parents embracing their children.... " played n newsreels. The realists won in Spain and for half a Century the democracies of the West lamented their failure to act more resolutely. They learned that fighting fascism is noble and necessary. And the Spainish, the Basques and the Catalans, they had to settle for almost 40 years of Francoist repression. Neutrality, ultimately didn't keep Europe out of war. It never does. The Ukrainians are looking for allies in their time of need. They will find them here they can. It is unfortunate Matt Taibbi keeps his distance and does not appear to be one of them.
This stuff works, it always has. Hello, Merkel, an actual scientist sees one dead Syrian kid on a Beach and she changed her mind from few refugees to a million. Of course, the hundreds of thousands killed by OUR Jihaddi mercenaries means nothing. Sees Fukashima and shuts down All the German nukes so they can burn lignite, the most polluting coal. Irrational, Oh yeah but if it affects her with a doctorate in quantum chemistry, how does it affect us? Paleo emotional capacity, medieval institutions and god like technology; not a good recipe for survival especially when the world is run by the sociopaths.
These "Close the Sky" people make me nauseous. They have no idea that they are begging for World War 3. They have no concept of Mutually Assured Destruction. It's terrifying.
``featuring calls for a no-fly zone and speeches by the likes of casual-dressed neoconservative Bill Kristol``
We all need to make sacrifices. Ukrainians sacrifice their lives, Americans sacrificed free speech and standard of living and Bill Kristol has sacrificed his necktie and his soul - all for freedom. Raytheon and Lougheed Martin are still not free so more sacrifices may be be required.

If these cunts really cared about Ukrainian moms and babies they would have protested in 2004 and 2014.
They don't though, and Bill Kristol is a paid for shill working for the arms and energy industries.
This wasn't so much a "protest" as it was an advertisement.
If you close the sky, the babies die anyway, along with everyone else. Nobody survives WW3. Nobody.

My acrimony toward those who would push the world toward global nuclear annihilation knows no bounds.
You know... for the children!

I bet more than half of these "demonstrators" couldn't identify Ukraine on a map.

Start WWIII for the sake of the children? I call bullshit. Neocon bullshit.

Let's start thermonuclear war - "for the children", and stuff.
Don't you want somebody to hate? Don't you need somebody to hate? Wouldn't you love somebody to hate? You better find somebody to hate....
Sad as that may be it's not our place, especially after what we've gotten up to over there the last decade.
