Another socialist success story.
Eventually they got them going. A bit late.
As cool it is to be in that old building, if you value the contents, you need a state of the art facility.
I read somewhere they were also having problems with water supply problems. They gave no details.
I don’t know much about Brazil. Latin American in general leans that way.
A number of years ago, I was very proud of the Hondurans and how they handled Mel Zelaya. Especially the part that after the legislature (not their term) voted to remove him and the Supreme court supported it, they picked him up in his mansion in his PJ’s and transported him to the other side of the border in Costa Rica. smile.
And it stuck. Later Zelaya sneaked back in the country and holed up in the Brazilian Embassy. Lula helped him do that.
Obama and crowd tried every way they could to get him reinstated. Hondurans refused.
I like Hondurans. Still have friends there that I made back then. Nice people.

As you said, it is truly tragic.
Thanks for the link.
Looks kind of like the White House. Must have looked close to that when the British torched Washington.
Now they SEE... It has strengthened our friendships. All I have done is point out what will happen. I think it helped them put the pieces together themselves.
I have friend like that in Syria. It has been going on for over 4 years. Honest conversations are very good tools when building trusted friendships.
It has been an education both ways.
The battleground today is truly global, but the Nationalists are the ones who want to step away from Global government. It is the only path that will allow freedom to exist.
Love of Freedom is neither left or right. There are traps all around.
Totalitarianism in all forms is evil.
It does look like the WH. ...
