It's more than just choices. It's the weaponization of the food industry for profit.

I am totally shocked that Peter Berg (Director), Betty Gilpin and Taylor Kitsch (Lead Actors) from American Primeval (Netflix) were completely left out of the Emmy's. American Primeval was easily one of the best limited series of the year. It did however get nominations for cinematography and costumes, but the direction and performances were outstanding. My Two Cents.

It's always funny how short our collective memory is. Does anyone remember December 5th 1994? I am well aware it's not a legally binding treaty, but they went through a lot of effort to make it happen. It's very strange to see where we are now. I wonder how many European and US politicians actually know what this treaty actually says. A link to the source document is below:

The treaty was signed on December 5, 1994, in Budapest. The parties (USA, UK, Russia) pledged to:

• Respect Ukraine’s independence, sovereignty, and existing borders;

• Refrain from the threat or use of force against Ukraine’s territorial integrity or political independence, except in self-defense or in accordance with the UN Charter;

• Not use economic pressure to influence Ukraine’s policies;

• Seek immediate UN Security Council action if Ukraine becomes a victim of an act of aggression or is threatened with nuclear weapons;

• Not use nuclear weapons against Ukraine, unless Ukraine itself attacks another state in alliance with a nuclear-weapon state.

This document is a political agreement, not a legally binding treaty under international law, but its wording provides Ukraine with certain security assurances in return for giving up what was then the third-largest nuclear arsenal in the world.
