Revolution 2.0

As Russian bombs rain down on Kyiv and other cities in Ukraine in Putin’s effort to expand his rule, let’s remember when another Russian President, Joseph Stalin, tried to freeze and starve out most of divided Berlin in 1948 in his attempt at expanding his rule.

Children who had little or nothing, and were simply hoping to survive. Stalin failed in his effort. Let’s work and pray that Putin also fails.
