"You're an observer, it's not your town, because I'm hiding behind a drawing board."
Artist George Butler, who has recently returned to the UK after a month in Ukraine, says that drawings "stay with you" as he thinks back about the people from his sketches.
The award-winning artist travelled across the country, sketching events as they unfolded. In the past, he has documented life in war zones like Syria and Afghanistan.

@morho9422 2 жыл бұрын

fu, because "brave" is now a fashionable buzz word. nothing to do with thinking. the people use it willy nilly because their amygdala is larger than their frontal lobe. if you look at their comments you'll see only emotions and wild ideas. the saddest thing is that those people have a right to vote. thus we end up with bush, blair and likes of theirs.

Stand for peace and ...save Ukraine! Be patient and respectful on the Soviet Victory Day, however, it arrived. (Didn’t know what to expect. ) In the United States, we don’t celebrate the end of ww2. We honor a simple weekend for Memorial Day, which pays tribute to all ...US fallen soldiers of our conflicts, over the years. We have honored fallen heroes and then payed tributes to them on ....Veteran’s Day in November. ☮️💜...May ..peace come soon ...to Ukraine. 🤎🇺🇦💛💙🇺🇸

you did not have ww2 in usa. so it understandable. just like russia honouring it so much. it meant a lot more for them than to you. oh, and did they behave? like savages, in poland they threw away all their dignity at the wreath laying. they created an international incident and showed their disrespect to the memory of those who defeated the nazis.

The majority of people simply don't understand what's actually happening so let me explain. My final conclusion is that ukraine should completely surrender as they are obviously fighting a war which they can not win, and therefore relying on their pride and ego will result in more casualties that can so easily be avoided. So far the intervention has been relatively smooth, however if Zelemsky continues to stall with his irrational sunk-cost fallacy, then plans and arrangements could be severely delayed, which only harms Ukrainian people long term. I have a degree in Political Science from Exeter University and I have also worked in conjunction with the U.N. so I speak with experience and knowledge regarding this subject. The first thing you need to understand is that the people of Ukraine will benefit from Russian intervention in the long term but will obviously face a few bumps in the road to begin which is completely natural, they'll need some guidance, reassurance and more importantly patience. However history tells us that future generations will reap the rewards of freedom and prosperity. The majority of people who I discuss this with have switched their support and now understand and agree with me, the minority simply don't understand the implications of continuing to fight an unwinnable war. Please keep replies respectful as this is a sensitive subject (preferably you should hold a recognised degree if you want to add a comment)

I have a recognised degree in PPE from the University of Oxford - This can be verified because I have just written it here. As an expert from a University which all ranking tables agree provides a better education than yours, my words are therefore more valuable. I've come to the conclusion that everything you said is completely wrong and you should believe what I just said instead (see aforementioned point about degree value) Yours sincerely, Dr B. S. PS - I know this is difficult to hear, but please keep your responses respectful. Thanks.
