I honestly cannot wait to work for the next 10/15 years and then just drop everything and move to a nice area with loads of land where I can get a job helping other people and every night I come home to my goats/cows/dogs/cats and I can hang around barefoot on my front porch and care for all my plants

Happy birthday to Yuri Alekseyevich Gagarin (March 9, 1934 – March 27, 1968), the first human in space, who would’ve turned 85 today!

“Orbiting Earth in the spaceship, I saw how beautiful our planet is. People, let us preserve and increase this beauty, not destroy it!”

“My biggest plan, my greatest dream is to do it one more time… to go to space a few more times. I want to fly there, see more, go to other planets.”

It was 58 years ago today when with his famous phrase „поехали!” (”Let’s go!”) Yuri Alexeyevich Gagarin became the first human in Low Earth Orbit, reaching an altitude of 327 kilometres above the surface of the planet for 1 hour and 48 minutes. He and his misson, Vostok 1 had begun the new era of human space exploration, and it’s impacts have changed humanity to what we know today. С Днём Космонавтики! 🚀✨

NATO’s War of Aggression against Yugoslavia

Today marks the 20th anniversary of the NATO bombing of Yugoslavia.

Summary:

The NATO bombing of Yugoslavia began on March 24th and ended on June 10th, 1999. It lasted 78 days.

According to various sources, up to 2,500 inhabitants of Yugoslavia lost their lives during the operation.

The official reason for the start of the operation was, allegedly, the protection of the Albanian population of Kosovo.

That is how the West interpreted the operations of the Serbian police and the military against the terrorist organization “Kosovo Liberation Army”, which controlled almost 40% of the Serbian province’s territory and violently fought against “Serbian occupiers”.

NATO assured the public that it would only target military facilities.

Yet, the result of the aggression was: 25,000 destroyed homes, 470 destroyed kilometers of roads, 595 destroyed kilometers of railway and 38 destroyed bridges.

Then: 14 damaged airports, nearly 40 damaged hospitals and clinics, almost a 100 damaged schools and kindergartens, and 176 damaged cultural monuments.

In total, 38% of bombed buildings were actually civilian.

Loses:

The overall damage is estimated to be from 30 to 100 billion dollars.

It is believed that between 1,200 and 2,500 people were killed and 6,000 people were injured.

In total, there were 2,300 air strikes on 995 buildings across the country.

About 420,000 bombs were thrown on Serbia, including those filled with depleted uranium.

The symbol of suffering of the Serbian people was the murdered three years old Milica Rakić. The house where she lived with her parents was hit by a NATO bomb.

Jamie Shea, the secretary of the Alliance’s media, called the civilians who were murdered during the NATO bombing “collateral damage”.

Epilogue:

Regardless of the foreseen disarmament of KLA terrorists, Kosovo formed its defense corps, the security forces, and ultimately an army in 2018.

Regardless of the Resolution 1244 foreseeing the territorial integrity of Yugoslavia, Kosovo still declared “independence” in 2008 with the support of a number of members of the international community.

After the arrival of international forces on Kosovo, more than 200,000 Serbs and other non-Albanian people has left the province.

Those 78 days of fear, violence, terror and destruction mustn’t ever be forgotten.

this is cuuuuuuuuuuuuuteeeeeeeeee ssssjsjsjjsj
