Alle 21 di Londra, le 20 italiane, la BBC manderà in onda "#Putin Vs the West", documentario straordinario dedicato a Vladimir Putin e alle sue relazioni con il leader internazionali. Ma un'anticipazione dedicata alla telefonata intercorsa fra il leader del Cremlino e Boris

Johnson sta già facendo discutere.
I fatti: l'ex primo ministro del Regno Unito ha dichiarato di aver ricevuto - prima dell'invasione - una minaccia da parte del presidente russo.
Essa ha avuto luogo in quella che viene descritta come una "lunghissima" telefonata nel

febbraio 2022.
In risposta all'avviso di Johnson, secondo cui la guerra sarebbe stata per la #Russia una "catastrofe totale", Vladimir Putin rispose che "gli sarebbe bastato un minuto".
Come contestualizzare questa frase? Johnson ha ricostruito il colloquio, sostenendo di

Oggi il mondo libero guarda alla base di #Ramstein.

Diversi segnali suggeriscono la possibilità di un salto di qualità del sostegno occidentale all'#Ucraina contro l'invasione russa.

Per chi vuole: aggiornerò questo thread in tempo reale con tutte le notizie più importanti.

Per comprendere che aria tira oggi a #Ramstein bisogna citare le parole pronunciate ieri dal segretario alla Difesa britannico, Ben #Wallace: "Non andremo da nessuna parte, signor Putin. Siamo qui a lungo termine. Siamo al fianco dell'Ucraina. Devi riconsiderare la

situazione. Devi fare un cambiamento. Devi lasciare l'Ucraina".

Tra parentesi: Ben Wallace è uno dei pochi ad aver compreso fin da subito la portata della sfida lanciata dalla Russia all'Occidente.

Avete presente le volte in cui sentite l'esperto di turno dire in tv: "Con un tale affollamento di forze militari, con questo stato di tensione, il rischio di un incidente è dietro l'angolo. Nessuno vuole la guerra mondiale, ma finirci dentro è un attimo".
Ecco, qualcosa di Image

molto vicino a quanto sopra descritto è accaduto lo scorso 29 settembre.
Parola di Ben #Wallace, segretario alla Difesa del Regno Unito. Rivolgendosi al Parlamento, l'esponente dei Conservatori ha comunicato quanto segue: un aereo russo ha lanciato un missile vicino ad un Image

DIARIO DI GUERRA (GIORNO 71): IL TRADITORE DELLA AZOVSTAL. E PUTIN TESTA I MISSILI NUCLEARI

I russi sono dentro. Penetrati nella fortezza ritenuta inviolabile. Intenti a muoversi fra i cunicoli della #Azovstal, città nella città, ultimo riparo della resistenza a #Mariupol.
2/10
Sì, ma come? Probabilmente grazie ad un traditore: non un soldato, ma un dipendente della struttura, "forse una specie di elettricista", giura Anton Geraschenko, consulente del ministro dell'Interno ucraino, che avrebbe mostrato ai russi i tunnel che conducono sottoterra.

#Azovstal divenuta in queste ore il più grande obiettivo alla portata di Mosca. Prendere l'acciaieria. E il 9 maggio, nel giorno della grande celebrazione, dichiarare il controllo totale di #Mariupol. O di quel che resta di una città distrutta, dove ai residenti rimasti

The British Ministry of Defense again called the Ukrainians to war

Ben #Wallace, who at one time failed to redeem the Lexus and Vovan prank
listed a list of British ammunition shipments to Ukraine (for The Hague, no less).
2/
And his deputy James #Heappey gave his consent for Ukrainians to use these weapons for terrorist attacks on the territory of the Russian Federation.

The very fact of calls for the continuation of the conflict and the Afghanization of Ukraine clearly hints that the West does not benefit from peace, but quite the opposite.

Therefore, the Western press quickly "forgot" that the Kyiv regime is protected by neo-Nazis.

#Fake: The #West has never supported #Ukraine in its plans to get nuclear #weapons.

Truth: #British Defence Secretary Ben #Wallace has publicly admitted () that the United Kingdom is ready to support #Ukraine if it starts developing its own nuclear programme.

Mr #Wallace said this during a video call. The Defence Secretary thought he was talking to his Ukrainian counterpart at the time. But, unfortunately for him, it was the well-known pranksters Vovan and Lexus. 😄

Weißruss. Oppositionelle #Tikhanovskaya wird von der EU fast wie eine Heilige behandelt.
Vom irischen EU-Parlamentarier Mick Wallace bekam sie aber gewaltige Dresche.
Im Detail zerlegt Wallace ihre Doppelmoral, Unkenntnis vom Völkerrecht und Heuchelei.
Sehenswert.

Unglaublich peinlich in diesem Zusammenhang übrigens, wie einige Parlamentarier durch Rufe, extra lautes Husten und Beleidigungen versuchen, die Rede von #Wallace zu stören.
Zeigt eindrucksvoll, dass im EU-Parlament nur eine Meinung geduldet wird, die als EU-Mainstream gilt
(2/3)
Wallace in kurz:
- #Tikhanovskaya habe keine Ahnung von Völkerrecht, Gebot der Nicht-Einmischung oder Wirkungsweise von Sanktionen,
- dass sie zum "#Guaido von Europa" wurde, mache ihr keine Ehre,
- ihre Haltung zu Protesten sei extreme Doppelmoral (Palästina, Katalonien etc)

Mining built #NovaScotia!
#Halifax was founded in 1749 and its first court house is reported to have been built by 1754 on the northeastern corner of Buckingham + Argyle streets. After the building burned in 1789, the courts were temporarily housed in various buildings.
#nspoli ImageImage
In April 1851 a bill to provide Halifax with a county court house was passed. Mr. H.G. Hill, a prominent #Halifax architect, prepared a plan for a wooden building.
However, since the records of the county, wills, deeds and other papers of public office were...

...to be stored in the court house, it was important that the building be fire-proof. Also, a number of serious fires in #Halifax in 1857 led to the passage of a bylaw that required large buildings be made of stone or brick, so Hill's plans for a wooden building were abandoned. Image

Mining is part of #NovaScotia’s heritage and many communities benefit from tourism attractions related to historical mining. In fact, this 1889 flyer advertised #gold mines near #Caledonia, #QueensCounty, as tourist attractions to people from Boston!

#nspoli @RegionofQueens #NS Image
It says, “Many tourists will find a profitable and interesting diversion in visiting the various gold mines within easy reach of their boarding places.”
#nspoli #novascotia #gold Image
It describes gold processing as “curious and interesting, and well repays an intelligent sight-seer for a few days of travel and observation.”

Mining built #NovaScotia!
The term building stone refers, not surprisingly, to stone used in construction. It can be structural/load-bearing or for decorative purposes such as cladding, floor pavers and carvings.
Read this for the history of building stone in #NS!
#nspoli #cbpoli ImageImage
Virtually any type of stone can be building stone but in Nova Scotia, sandstone and granite have historically been most common.
Most building stone in the 1600s and 1700s was either:

Ship ballast - rock or other heavy material placed low in a ship to improve its stability. Ballast in the days of sailing ships gave easy access to building material.

In this time of fear and uncertainty, I finally started #TheWire. Here goes: a middle-aged white lady watches the greatest show on earth.
I’ve watched the first 5 so far. There will be SPOILERS, so if you haven’t seen it, feel free to mute this thread.

Of course, this applies to the kind souls who haven’t already muted me for my political rants and weak jokes.
So this show premiered in 2002 and People Magazine waited 16 years before naming Idris Elba the Sexiest Man Alive?

Insubordinate. And churlish.

We love getting questions about mining, minerals and geology! We were asked where the stone was quarried for the old #Bridgewater post office on King St. Here’s our answer:
#nspoli #cbpoli #NovaScotia #capebreton #NS #CB @BernJordanMP @MarkFurey1 @TownBridgewater @DesBrisayMuseum ImageImage
The old #Bridgewater post office was designed by David Ewart and built in 1909 by builders Faulkner and MacDonald. It was built in the federal style, with the ground level windows featuring rounded tops and stone arches.
#nspoli #cbpoli #NovaScotia @BernJordanMP @MarkFurey1 Image
It also has a Dentilled Cornice, which is the small tooth like decorative block design that crowns the building. ("Dentil" comes from the Latin word for tooth.)

We love getting questions about #mining, #minerals and #geology! We were recently asked about historical #gold mines around #Fenwick, #CumberlandCounty. Here’s our answer:
#nspoli #novascotia #ns #Cumberland Image
There are no documented #gold mines in the area but there have been numerous findings of gold in #copper deposits/occurrences in #Cumberland. For example, modest amounts of gold were found in the Blenkhorn copper mine near #Maccan.
#nspoli #novascotia #ns #Cumberlandcounty Image
#Gold sometimes became apparent when the #copper was smelted – small amounts were mixed in with the copper ore and were separated through processing.
Some other places in the area where gold was found, often in copper deposits:

#Mining built #NovaScotia!
The foundation of #NS' democracy (our legislature, at least) is ironstone from the Dalhousie #quarry on the NW Arm. It's 480 million years old and was a common building material in #Halifax in the 1800s. It rusts due to high iron content.
#nspoli @NSLeg ImageImageImage
@NSLeg #Mining built #NovaScotia!
The #legislature's foundation is #ironstone but the rest is mainly tan #sandstone from the Batte #quarry in #Wallace, #NS. The stone is 300 million years old and about 100,000 blocks of it were used. The walls are up to 3 metres thick.
#nspoli @NSLeg ImageImage
@NSLeg In 1985 #NovaScotia's legislature was renovated. The exterior sandstone, from Wallace, was cleaned to its original colour so it could be inspected. 1700 stones were replaced with stones from the same quarry so they would match.
@NSLeg is the oldest legislature in #Canada.
