Nice and Brighton
A Commuter's Journal


Today Georgian people, some of them of the first generation, others of the second and even third generation, protested for the fourth time since last saturday against the Russian aggression in their country.

Despite the fact that many Russians are living in Nice, and also South-Ossetians, none of them comes to the Place Massena to let their sides of the story being heard.

"You are next". "Stop Russia." I think the Georgians have every reason to believe that the Russians won't stop at Georgia once they experience that they can get away with this. Many people from Ukrain, Bellarus, Latvia, Lithuania and other former Soviet states live here in Nice, peacefully and in harmony with Russians, and I expect it will stay that way, but most of these people have friends and relations living in their homelands, and the Russian aggression in Georgia makes them fearful.

Zielig nationalisme. Een statenbond als de Sovjet Unie was zo gek
nog niet. Zie ook voormalig Joegoslavië. Allemaal egootjes die de
macht (en het geld) willen en dat gaat ten koste van eerzame,
onschuldige burgers.

De
Volkskrant was founded in 1919 and is a daily morning
newspaper since 1921. Today it is the biggest newspaper of the
Netherlands, a liberal/leftish daily.

Long ago I
used to be a chef, in restaurants and in the merchant navy. I still
like to cook, for friends, at home. Since 2004 I'm writing the
