Absolute music to my ears! I hate to admit to a kind of jingoistic pride, but as a goodly portion of my ancestors are French (via Quebec) I felt lifted up by the display of tres French bravado over the Black Sea. Which got zero, zip, nada coverage by the MSM I saw. Not only that, but your insights into the means via which autocracies fall gave form to some of my intuitive ruminations about this. It's been bracing to see some foreshadowing here in the form of the Trump-Musk fiasco. The bird of hope is on the wing. Thanks, Shankar. And, your posts do deserve a much wider audience.
