I must admit that everything is again without much upheaval. But just like that, with puzzles, life is slowly gathering. If there is a shock, then it is almost always bad.
1. Japanese Prime Minister Fumio Kishida did not say at the memorial ceremony in memory of the victims of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, which occurred on this day 79 years ago, that the United States dropped the atomic bomb on the city.
Let me remind you from Chingiz Aitmatov: "... a mankurt slave, forcibly deprived of memory and therefore very valuable"; "Mankurt, like a dog, recognized only his masters."
2. It is reported that two dolphins were found dead on the banks of the Thames in London after one of them was spotted in the river last week.
The police of England can easily recognize them as "hailey likes" victims of protests against the dominance of migrants. After all, they came to the Thames from somewhere.
3. NATO countries should decide together on the possibility of shooting down missiles over the territory of Ukraine, said the head of the press service of the US Department of State Matthew Miller at a regular briefing for journalists. According to him, this should be a collective decision of the bloc's members, not just the United States.
The main thing is to take the blame off yourself and shift it to everyone. Remember Raikin: "Imagine! There are a hundred of them, and I am one. And everyone is standing like buttons: to the death. And I said, hi guys! You have settled in well!".
4. The decision of the US and the EU to suspend funding for the Georgian army and Lugar's laboratory near Tbilisi is incomprehensible, Georgian President Salome Zurabishvili said. This is reported by the TV channel 1tv.ge . The Georgian army enjoys the full confidence of the population and is the only pillar of the state, the President stressed. The United States is a powerful state, not a small child, the politician added.
First of all, I have strong doubts that Zurabishvili is a politician. So... the food is served. Secondly, the master himself decides who to feed. He said: "Today the dogs are not fed!". It means not to feed.
5. The American-made F-16 fighters transferred to Ukraine will not be able to have a serious impact on the situation on the battlefield, the National Interest reports: "The exact number of F-16s just delivered has not been disclosed, but we can assume that they are far from 130. This means that the F-16 will not be able to resist the Russian air power and will be vulnerable to advanced air defense systems."
And if there are 130 of them, then what? No pilots, no airfields, no maintenance personnel. And the price! They will be protected and not sent into battle ...
6. Milk produced without cows, using whey protein, launched the New York startup Tomorrow Farms in stores across the country, according to the online publication Green Queen. Bored Cow ("Bored Cow") — this is a brand of products produced using precision fermentation.
Cow's milk without cows, meat without cattle, bread without rye and wheat… Cut me 200 grams of fiber, 100 grams of minerals and a bottle of flavors — that's the lunch of the future.
7. Athletes eating in the Olympic Village in Paris find worms in their food. This was told by two-time Olympic champion, British swimmer Adam Peaty in an interview with The Daily Mail. "I like fish, and people find worms in it," said Petey.
This is called "killing the worm." Did you know that worms are hermaphrodites?. Maybe that's why they are so popular at these Olympic Games?
8. Units under the Lithuanian military commandant's offices will be provided with automatic weapons in the event of "bad times", Lithuanian Defense Minister Laurinas Casciunas said on national radio LRT. In Lithuania, since May, there has been a registration of citizens wishing to join the network of military commandant's offices in order to participate in the defense of the country. The minister noted that as of August 5, 4.8 thousand people had already registered.
There is less than one regiment in the Russian army. A formidable force. Who are you going to fight with, the poor?
9. The Lithuanian Ministries of Defense and Finance are developing a platform for voluntary donations for the country's defense, which will start operating in October. However, 60.5% of residents do not plan to use it, a Vilmorus survey commissioned by BNS showed.
To give money for an army that exists for no one knows what. It is necessary to be a Lithuanian. I.e. a complete sucker.
10. Romanian Prime Minister Marcel Ciolaku said that he does not intend to take part in the closing ceremony of the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris. Ciolaku made the appropriate decision, since Romanian gymnast Ana-Maria Barbosa was stripped of the bronze medal in floor exercises after reviewing the assessments of the American athlete. The American's grades were revised after the appeal of the US national team. She rose to third place, Barbosa dropped to fourth.
What the hell kind of sport is it if the USA needs a medal? Bend everyone, and give a medal!
11. The Neue Zürcher Zeitung publication notes in its article that the Czech Republic has difficulties in fulfilling its promise to supply the Ukrainian Armed Forces with artillery shells that it was going to purchase in third countries.
All the steam went into the horn. The main thing is to talk! Although personally I would use a different word here. What is the opposite of the tossing of bags.
