Letter 23 the War is NOT over - give till it hurts, please. Help us raise $10,000 for tourniquets, chest seals, and blood clotting agents, which are desperately needed.

One year later, together we fight fatigue and resolutely look forward. Glory to Ukraine!

As citizens of the western world, we are fortunate that we are led by people who do not bury their heads in the sand and take a stand, albeit often hesitantly and meekly, on the right side of history.

The greatest impact of this war on America is the realization that the Cold War never ended. Not really. All it did was pause momentarily.

A man dies when he refuses to stand up for that which is right. A man dies when he refuses to stand up for justice. A man dies when he refuses to take a stand for that which is true…. Dr. Martin Luther King

Just People writes today’s letter: I want to say that in this difficult time for my country, you not only helped Ukraine, but also found a friend in my person. I am in your debt. You can count on me anytime, no matter what happens. I give you all a big hug.

Tour of Odesa is postponed. The war in Ukraine hit close to home. Our Odesa tour guide, Natalia, last week lost a close friend and coworker.

For years the words "Russians" and "Soviets" have been used interchangeably. These words have been universally accepted as synonyms, but I think the events of the last ten months have demonstrated just how wrong we have all been in accepting that misguided synonymy and that the difference between being Russian and Soviet is much more then just a matter of syntax.

If you are Ukrainian, please use your influence on your leaders to ensure they represent you, and NOT just take the convenient positions based on the inertia and the prevailing winds.

I already wrote that we, as Jews, have a responsibility to help Ukraine, but now, we have a golden opportunity to help Ukraine differently. We have an opportunity to help Ukraine on its path to becoming a more perfect nation with a strong multicultural community of some 130 ethnic groups.

One thing I know for sure is that the eventual cessation of outward hostilities will not equate to lasting peace and will not satisfy either warring faction.

There are many reasons for the current Ruzzo-Ukrainian War. Still, the essential truth is that the Genocide of the Ukrainian people is the fundamental tool of the Russian National strategy. It always was, and it still is.

From the US Congressional Research Service, learn about the Ukrainian military system and how volunteers have stepped up to fight the war.

Odesa is a vibrant city with a multinational character: its first mayor was Frenchman Duke de Richelieu, and the first architects arrived from Italy. Greek, Polish and German merchants developed trade here, and one of the largest Jewish communities in Ukraine was also in Odesa. Mark Twain, who visited the city in 1867, compared Odesa to his native country, saying, "Look up the street or down the street, this way or that way, we saw only America!”

Some weeks ago, we toured Kyiv. Now, we are preparing to explore Odesa.

SHARE Ukraine’s next major project is to raise $30,000 for two 4x4 pickup trucks and ship them to Kharkiv which was bombed again today.

Generous supporters of SHARE Ukraine have raised over $270,000 in goods and cash assistance - THANK YOU!!

We all know what the words “NEVER AGAIN” mean in terms of the Holocaust. Today, in Ukraine, those words have taken on a new meaning
