I'm a supporter of this, and wanted to share. (Pics are from Feb 24 Ukraine rally at the Capitol.) Please join us to show your support!!!

Sunflower Society of Sacramento would like to welcome you to a deeply meaningful symbolic installation, Bring Kids Back. This installation was founded by the organization Razom for Ukraine, and is dedicated to the children of Ukraine who have been abducted during war.

This installation features 20,000 teddy bears, each representing a Ukrainian child who has been deported, forcibly transferred, or separated from family as a result of Russia’s war against Ukraine. First displayed on the National Mall in Washington, D.C., the exhibit serves as a powerful reminder of the urgent need to secure the return of these children and support international efforts to protect their human rights.

Bring Kids Back will be traveling across America as a powerful expression of solidarity to bring abducted Ukrainian children home, and a commitment to protecting the world’s most vulnerable in times of war. Sacramento is its third stop.

Its 4am in Kyiv, most of the rocket strike is over, but I can still hear exposions in the distance . I just got out of shelter and going to bed now. Its been a few sleepless nights. I wanted to thank everyone for helping us during this times.

It is VERY joyfull to see our soldiers making photos and seeing NAFO stickers. It is not less important for morale to see that people still care and support us. Thank you.

And they still have no gasoline…

“Crucially, the Kremlin understands that they don't need the West to fully agree with their worldview, but they do need enough people that accept their core premises: multipolarity is arriving; the US is a declining aggressor; sovereignty is the only true refuge. Once that becomes the majority view, what seems now like a global “reconfiguration” looks less like Russian ambition and more like the consensus view. When that occurs, in the Kremlin's own telling, its plans will begin to come to fruition.

Dangerous Western Misperceptions

Western analysts tend to focus on material losses — troops, equipment, territory — and calculate odds of military success in Ukraine. But this misplaces the real location of the battlefield which is in the hearts and minds of the ~7 billion in the so-called global south.

While Russia may not be gaining ground in Ukraine, it's vital to understand that they believe that they would do so instantly if not for the interference of outside aggressors. And they believe that that aggression will evaporate overnight if they can achieve sufficient mindshare globally. Within that framework, an Indian think tank carrying its China line, or a US strategy targeting “antifa,” read to them as wins.

So while Western analysis might be tempted to discount Russian ambitions because of their lack of battlefield progress in Ukraine, their information warfare operations throughout the world are making slow but steady progress.
Their gamble, which may be correct particularly if the West continues to be oblivious to the threats posed by information warfare, is that an eventual tipping point will be reached that will allow not only for the capture of Ukraine, but for the victory of their worldview globally — along with all of the implications of that: the end of US ‘unipolar’ hegemony, along with NATO and the European Union.”
