  • Almost 500 days after he was detained in Russia, Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich is heading home.
    (Subscribe: bit.ly/C4_News...)
    With him are former US marine Paul Whelan and Kremlin critic Vladimir Kara-Murza, part of the biggest prisoner exchange since the Cold War.
    Sixteen people detained in Russia and Belarus are being released, in exchange for eight held in the US and several European countries. One of them is a convicted Russian murderer.

      @@tinalove8197Thousands of Americans and other foreign nationals continue to live in,work in, and visit Russia without experiencing a single problem. I myself lived and worked there for five years. Not one problem. Why? We respected the law. It's that simple.
      The people who've ended up on the news failed to do that. Many of them committed crimes in the US as well. But when they do it abroad, you lot call them heroes. What a sad farce.

      Sergei Skripal is mentioned in reference to the time he was exchanged in 2010 after which he was poisoned in 2018. They are saying that THAT exchange (in 2010) was the largest exchange of prisoners made until this one. Sergei Skripal has NOT been exchanged again.
      He is supposedly living in New Zealand under a new identity at the moment.

    Vague description of four out of 12 and only one out of 8 is not the best way of setting the scene. As for the two guests, they are both very biased - too many speculations, many statements they've made should have been challenged and they don't seem to have much awareness of what is actually happening in Ukraine itself. Perhaps could have at least one from the other side of the argument? Otherwise, prisoner swap is always good news.

    "Like flies to wanton boys are we to the [geopolitical] gods. The kill [and exchange] us for their sport!" Text in brackets my own. The thought expressed is from William Golding in "Lord of the Flies". Thank you.

    • @stephenwalker2924
      @stephenwalker2924 Месяц назад

      “As flies to wanton boys are we to the gods: They kill us for their sport” is a quote from King Lear by William Shakespeare. Gloucester says this line in Act 4, Scene 1, while wandering on the heath after being blinded by Cornwall and Regan. The quote reflects Gloucester's despair and his desire for death, and it also highlights one of the play's main themes: whether the universe is just. Gloucester's philosophical musings suggest that there is no order in the universe, and that humans are unable to impose their own moral ideas on the world's laws.
      Eric Cantona, a former Manchester United footballer and actor, also quoted the line in his 2019 UEFA award acceptance speech. Cantona's speech was described as "bizarre" and "unique", and left some audience members, including Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, confused.

God is sufficient for us, and He is the best disposer of affairs for those who brought us to this situation. By Allah Almighty, I did not write this appeal out of distress and distress. Poverty, O world, they have felt it So, I hope for you. By Allah Almighty, Lord of the Great Throne, he ate what I had in the house. By Allah, my brothers, he is my brothers by sitting in the house. Who has no food? By God, we are in a very difficult situation. We have 6 people entering the house, and my father has died, and there is no one who can depend on us and who lives in it.We live in a rented house because we cannot pay the rent we owe. '''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''''' ''''''''''''' My brother, my first words are: I swear to God that I will not lie to you or deceive you. I am a Yemeni girl displaced from the war. My family and I live in a rented house in Al-Shahrab 20,000 Yemenis among us, and now we owe 60,000 for 3 months. The owner of the house is one of the people who does not have mercy, by God, my brother. He comes every day, insulting us, talking about us, and moving from the house to the street because we were unable to pay him the rent. The neighbors saw us crying and came back.They came back to talk to the neighbors and we were given the weekend. So we made him swear by God. He will take us out into the street. Have mercy on him and us. Our country is due to this war and we do not find food for our day, and my brothers and I live in a difficult life. Our father died, may God have mercy on him, and we have no one in this world who was with us in these harsh circumstances. My younger brothers went out into the street and saw...The neighbors eat and stand at their door in order to give them bread even if they break it. By God, to whom belongs the dominion of the heavens and the earth, they closed the door and expelled them and came back crying. They are dying of hunger. No one has mercy on them and a holiday is returned. I have made a living, and now if one of us helps us with a kilo of flour, I swear to God, I am dying of hunger. My brother, I am an alien to God. Then, I ask you to help me for the sake of God. I ask you, by God, to love goodness and to help me, even if you can, by messaging me on WhatsApp.On this number 00967717354582 and ask for the name of my card and send it and do not be late and may God reward you with all the best, my brothers Sagar, see how they are and help us and save us before they throw us out in the street, you will be lost or we will die of hunger.
