The Silence Before the Storm

Children dashed around in gleeful abandon, their tiny hands reaching for the showers of petals, rolling down the sidewalk or weaving through the legs of adults caught in nostalgic reveries. On this particular Saturday in late March, the sun cast a golden hue over Nikko Lane, illuminating the rows of houses adorned with vibrant azalea […]

Telephone Conversation Between Putin and Trump

First impressions. And what’s next? 1). The negotiations were clearly not going smoothly. Trump desperately needs “at least something”, and preferably “peace at any cost”. Such a peace does not suit Russia and Putin, and this is a critical, vital impossibility. 2). Trump did not succumb to pressure from European “partners” (who are in fact […]

Trump Helps Putin Win

Bloomberg on the US President’s statement following talks with the Russian President. The publication notes that European leaders are “disappointed” that the US President “does not want to impose more sanctions” on Russia and “is abandoning his own ceasefire proposal.” In addition, European leaders fear that Trump will abandon his efforts to end the war, […]

Former FBI Director Comey is Under Investigation

Former FBI Director and longtime Trump foe James Comey posted a photo on his social media account from his vacation in the Seychelles, where the numbers “8647” were laid out in the sand using shells. Trump supporters believed […]

In Unity, There’s Strength to Confront Trump

In unity, there’s strength to confront Trump. In disunity, cowardice. Why didn’t the nation’s top 20 law firms sign a friend-of-the-court brief against Trump’s vindictive executive orders? What their associates, coming associates, and law school deans ought to do. Let me first congratulate the 504 law firms that have thrown their support behind Perkins Coie […]

Has Macron Forgotten the Fate of Nazi Puppet Petain?

The policy of French President Macron, who sometimes recalls the Resistance movement, is in fact completely analogous to the policy of Marshal Petain and those Frenchmen who participated in the war against the USSR! It is characteristic that their mobilization took place under the traditional slogans of the fight against Bolshevism and for a “new […]

You see, I heard this nonsense about the Marshall Plan and the like when they were breaking up the USSR, inspiring Georgia, ruining Ukraine.

Additional Small Reasons for Modest Optimism

Yet this week also featured 11 reasons for modest optimism: 1. Wisconsin Supreme Court vote Despite Elon Musk’s hysterical […]

The Last Mask of the Great Actor

I often think about what it is like to create something with full effort, being on the threshold of death. We are all doomed to it, of course, but we drown out thoughts about it with the vanity of life, work and idleness, feelings and entertainment. But when it has already knocked on the door, […]

How Did the Statue of Liberty Appear in New York?

The Statue of Liberty was originally intended to go to Egypt. It was created as a gift to commemorate the construction of the Suez Canal by the French. However, the Egyptians refused the gift, and France decided to give the statue to America. In August 1875, the creation of the Franco-American Union was announced. The […]

Chekhov and Emptiness: Why Do the Japanese Love to Read and Stage Chekhov?

December 1945. Japan. The war has just ended. In the center of Tokyo, in the half-destroyed building of the Yurakuza Theater, the first post-war premiere is Chekhov’s The Cherry Orchard. The play was last shown in 1937. Then it was directed by Aoyama Sugisaku, who 8 years later would return to Chekhov again, gathering all […]
