            Seems like you've got a lot of invalid files there.

                    • A good summation/review of the war up to this point. Pretty long, but riveting.

                      For all this His anger is not turned away, but His hand is stretched out still.

                      Not long ago an obituary appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune that said the recently departed had "died doing what he enjoyed most—watching BYU lose."

                        That was a good read. The "Hubris" section about Putin is chilling.

                            • You've no doubt heard about the HIMARS attack that Ukraine claims killed 400 Russian soldiers and wounded 300 more. Russia actually acknowledges 89 deaths. The truth is probably somewhere in between.

                              • This was an interesting article from Reuters on how pro-Putin operatives are trying to influence Germany against helping Ukraine.

                                https://www.reuters.com/investigates...y-influencers/

                                I found this part particularly interesting:

                                Ties between Germany and Russia stretch back centuries. Empress Catherine the Great invited her German compatriots to emigrate to Russia in the 18th century. Between 1992 and 2002, around 1.5 million of these settlers' descendants moved back to Germany, taking advantage of laws that allowed people of German ancestry to claim citizenship. German government research shows that this community votes more heavily for the far-right Alternative für Deutschland (AfD) party than other groups. It wants to tighten immigration controls and limit Islam’s influence in Germany.
                                That's a significant chunk of people. Just over 83 million people live in Germany.
