STALIN’S GENERAL: SAVING MOSCOW
21 Mar 2021 Leave a comment
With his recall to Moscow Georgy Zhukov’s moment had arrived. The impending battle for the Soviet capital would either bolster or demolish his reputation; much more importantly it would determine the fate of Operation Barbarossa—Hitler’s attempt to conquer Russia in a Blitzkrieg invasion designed to avoid a costly war of attrition on the Eastern Front.
Hitler’s plan had worked well so far, except that the Red Army exacted a heavier than expected toll on the Wehrmacht as it marched across Russia. In summer 1941 alone the Germans suffered twice as many casualties as they had in conquering France in 1940. But the cost to the Soviets was even greater.

The rational and inquisitive, however, have found plenty to see in Texas. Or, more to the point, in the wind and solar obsessed policies that inevitably led to the calamity, that the 4 million Texans freezing in the dark.

Davidson tweets her rebuttal (with a “racism” barb) in spat over homelessness and crime but has yet to issue a ministerial press statement
21 Mar 2021 Leave a comment
Green Party co-leader Marama Davidson’s accomplishments as Associate Minister of Housing (Homelessness) became an issue that aroused our interest during the past week, although mainstream news media seemed more fascinated by Davidson’s playing of the race card when National’s Nicola Willis linked crime with homelessness.
At Question Time in Parliament, Willis asked Davidson:
Can she confirm that in the five months since becoming a Minister, she has not taken a single paper to Cabinet committee or Cabinet and has not issued a single press release?
Speaker Trevor Mallard let her off the hook by ruling this did not relate to the primary question.
Davidson was given a chance to answer the question outside the House, when reporters asked her about her achievements as minister. But as Stuff reported –
… when questioned about what she had achieved as minister she abruptly left the press stand-up mid-question.
And:
