I like this sentence from a review by Aris Roussinos of a book about Taiwan from November 2021. It applies to Ukraine (and even Israel) too.

He's in town at the moment and I look forward to his analysis.
"The Democrats don't matter. The real opposition is the media. And the way to deal with them is to flood the zone." Steve Bannon told Michael Lewis this in 2018.
"If I were being born today, I would just keep negotiating in the womb until they said, ‘You could be in the United States.'” Warren Buffett
