To our Tanglewood customers:
We ask that you please remember and stand with the people of Ukraine while they struggle to keep their independence against bringers of the horrors of war, a brutal and uncaring Russian Federation invasion force working the will of Vladimir Putin, one of history’s most evil strongmen. Keep the brave Ukrainians in your thoughts and prayers. There are many avenues for badly needed donations via the Ukrainian Red Cross and other organizations.
Can anyone explain how the “Nazi hating” Putin considers it OK to do precisely what the premier Nazi, Hitler, did to Vlad’s beloved homeland and specifically to the cities of (then called) Leningrad and Stalingrad in World War II? The cruelty to the civilian populations in those battlegrounds by order of the most terrible Nazi of all times was the stuff of horrible legend. MILLIONS died due not only to the direct effects of conventional weaponry but to often more horrible conditions of fiercely cold weather and a lack of food and shelter under the Nazi sieges on what are now called St Petersburg and Volgograd.
Though there are always challenges and problems to solve, we in the USA are in many ways the very luckiest on Earth to have maintained our many Freedoms for so long. Once lost, they can be forever elusive to regain.
Hating the people we disagree with will NOT preserve those Freedoms.
Now please permit us to sell you some…food!
