This is funny & uncanny at the same time. Russia unveiling a monument to Felix Dzerzhinsky, one of the worst murderers of Christians from the 1917 Bolshevik Revolution - to the tune of “Jesus Christ, superstar!”

Remember that night when Iran attacked Israel and when NATO jets were collectively shooting the drones and missiles down? It’s every night in Ukraine.
Only more drones.

Volodymyr Mykolayenko, former mayor of Kherson who refused to be exchanged in favour of other 🇺🇦 PoW and who was released only now, 3 years later, tells his story. How he was beaten “almost daily, except on Easter”.
And that’s all you need to know about Russia’s “Christianity”.

11 years ago, 🇺🇦 Olena Kulish & Volodymyr Alyokhin got executed mafia-style in #Donbas. “Guilty” of supplying 🇺🇦 soldiers with food.
He was in IT. She was a popular radio host & animal rights activist. Russians killed her 6 dogs too. Just for the fun of it.

An illustration to put russian smugness in perspective. Somewhere around 2018, during my time as 🇺🇦ambassador in Austria, I was informed of contacts between Catholic Church & 🇷🇺 Orthodoxy. Catholics were doing the Christian thing: reaching out a friendly hand, trying to smooth out existing problems.

Russians started what was supposed their Ukraine blitzkrieg by bombing Kyiv and other 🇺🇦 cities at 4am - just like the Nazis in 1941.
They got stopped 19 miles away from Kyiv - just like the Nazis 19 miles from Moscow.
History does rhyme.
