For obvious reasons, I can't get Bulat Okudzhava's "Raven" out of my head this morning. In the (Russian) song, a raven is spotted in the sky—an omen for war. To stop the war from happening, you have to kill the raven. To kill the raven, you have to load up your rifles. 1/ — PolitiTweet.org

The song ends with the raven still soaring in the sky with no one left to shoot it down. https://t.co/j7WXHlVZxz — PolitiTweet.org

But once everyone starts loading their rifles, everyone wants to start shooting. And once the shooting starts, Okudzhava sings, "a bullet will find its hole." "It doesn’t pity anyone, It just want to hit someone, Anyone, theirs or ours, Everyone, to a man, And that’s it." 2/ — PolitiTweet.org
