How Future Historians Will View Ukraine

“This is a war about all the world.” -Volodymyr Zelensky

I can’t get the horror of the Russian atrocities in Ukraine out of my head. I keep hearing that cute little toddler crying out hysterically, “Daddy, Mommy is dead!” Her mother was killed in her apartment by a Russian bomb. The videos of teenage Russian conscripts burning to death in their tanks from Javelin missiles don’t make me feel much better.

Is there any point to all of this needless human suffering? “History does not repeat itself, but it does rhyme.” Perhaps it is time to start reflecting on what Russia’s invasion of Ukraine will mean to future historians.

That’s not nice!
