GOOD MORNING FRIENDS AND FOLLOWERS: THE AVERAGE AMERICAN DOES NOT UNDERSTAND THE CONFLICT BETWEEN UKRAINE AND RUSSIA. I DO NOT INTEND TO EXPLAIN IN A SHORT INTRODUCTION THE ROOTS OF A CONFLICT THAT GOES BACK MANY CENTURIES IN HISTORY. IN MANY WAYS, THE UKRAINIAN CONFLICT IS A CIVIL WAR AMONG A PEOPLE OF THE SAME RACE, LANGUAGE AND CULTURE. VLADIMIR PUTIN EXPLAINED IT VERY WELL IN HIS LONG CONVERSATION WITH TUCKER CARLSON THAT MANY OF YOU PROBABLY WATCHED. FOR TODAY, I HAVE A COUPLE OF SHORT VIDEOS: ONE IS FROM ROBERT F. KENNEDY jr. WHO IN LESS THAN 5 MINUTES EXPLAINED HOW THE ACTUAL CONFLICT STARTED DEVELOPING FROM THE MOMENT OF THE FALL OF THE BERLIN WALL AND THE REUNIFICATION OF GERMANY THAT FACILITATED THE EVENTUAL BREAK DOWN OF THE SOVIET UNION, FROM WHICH UKRAINE WAS AN IMPORTANT PART AND BUFFER ZONE BETWEEN EUROPE AND RUSSIA. THE SECOND VIDEO IS FROM INDIA'S MEDIA. SEE HOW THEY REPORT REAL NEWS IN A WAY NO AMERICAN MEDIA DOES. WE MAY HAVE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION AS A RIGHT BUT AMERICAN MEDIA IS MEDIOCRE AT BEST AND KEEPS PEOPLE IN IGNORANCE.

SADLY, HERE IN AMERICA, IF WE WANT TO KNOW WHAT'S REALLY GOING ON IN THE WORLD, WE HAVE TO LOOK FOR INTERNATIONAL NEWS IN FOREIGN SOURCES. THIS IS FROM THE 'TIMES OF INDIA' ABOUT THE SITUATION IN UKRAINE. NO AMERICAN NEWS CHANNEL WILL SHOW YOU REPORTS LIKE THIS ONE.

OUR DAILY OLDIES: TODAY'S SONG WAS POPULAR IN THE 1950s. AS WITH MANY SONGS OF THE 50s, THERE WAS ANOTHER VERSION IN THE 60s BUT THE MOST INTERESTING VERSION IF FROM 2023: A GROUP OF OLD MEXICAN ROCK&ROLLERS HAD A REUNION TO REMEMBER THE "GOOD OLD TIMES" AND HERE'S WHAT THEY DID IN A RECORDING STUDIO IN MEXICO CITY. ENJOY IT!
