Home Actor Platon HD Instagram Photos and Wallpapers May 2019 Platon Instagram - (2/2) george h. w. bush. “Politics has always been a combative business; a melting pot of victories, losses, friends, and opponents. In reflection, President George H. W. Bush’s legacy is a complicated one - as are all presidential legacies. Yet one thing is crystal clear – he believed in service. Ultimately, he would only be a one-term president; losing a bitter political-cultural fight to Bill Clinton, signaling a new generation of leadership. Yet, despite Bush’s devastating election loss, he wrote a gracious letter to Bill Clinton on Inauguration Day in January 1993 – ‘Your success now, is our country’s success.’ President George H. W. Bush, I salute you."

Platon Instagram – dr. denis mukwege conducting a prayer vigil during his morning sermon. “I am writing to you from my hotel room in Oslo, Norway. This week I witnessed history unfold before me. I was invited by my friend and hero, Dr. Denis Mukwege, to attend the Nobel Peace Prize Ceremony. It was a humbling moment in my life to watch the global establishment acknowledge the courage and compassion of this year’s two recipients – Dr. Denis Mukwege and Nadia Murad. Over the past few years, Dr. Denis has taught me the meaning of empathy, truth, and righteousness. His resilience in fighting rape as a weapon of war is remarkable – everyday he faces daunting obstacles and risks, yet he is driven forward by a hope that justice will prevail over injustice, and that action will triumph over inaction. Nadia’s family was murdered by ISIS in Iraq. She herself was then abducted and forced into sexual slavery by the terror organization. Yet somehow, she has survived the horrors of history and has joined the battlefront to end this dark epidemic of sexual violence. Nadia’s Nobel lecture was an exemplary demonstration of stoic nobility. Dr. Denis Mukwege followed with a thunderous call to the world to end this barbaric brutality. He asked the question – how can we live in the 21st century with all our technological advances and yet we refuse to halt a war on women and children, forged with weapons of a bygone era. Through dark days, Denis and Nadia have not lost the capacity to dare. And so, to my friends of peace who read these words – Now is the time to speak truth to power. Now is the time to hold compliant corporations and governments accountable. Now is the time to rise above our differences and end this moral bankruptcy. Dr. Denis Mukwege and Nadia Murad, I salute you.”
Platon Instagram – (1/2) george h. w. bush. ”Today is a day to remember George H. W. Bush. I have fond, personal memories to share with you. I photographed the former president in his Houston office during his son’s term in the White House. Bush Sr. had tremendous charm and wit – his unrelenting political battles of the past had not disfigured the spirit of the man in the present. I asked him about Margaret Thatcher – he said she was a tough lady but a loyal, steady friend. They were together at a summit the very moment news broke about Saddam Hussein’s invasion of Kuwait, ‘she was a rock that day,’ he said. President Bush was also a huge admirer of Churchill. This picture is our private tribute to Winston – ‘V’ for victory at the end of the second world war. Here is the Bush Sr. character on view – playful, disarmingly cheeky, with a deep rooted love and respect, for public service, courage, and history. This picture was to become the cover of a great magazine called Texas Monthly. My dearest friend and greatest collaborator, Scott Dadich, was then, creative director. As soon as the cover was released publicly however, it occurred to me that the George W. Bush White House administration may read the image differently. I immediately received an email from one of W’s chief political advisors – I would love to share the note with you today. ‘Dear Mr. Platon, congratulations on a cover with cross-generational appeal. George H. W. Bush’s two upraised fingers may represent a victory sign, or a peace sign, depending on which side of World War II the reader was born. However, my three year old daughter had a different take. Upon glimpsing the cover from her seat at the front of the grocery cart, she exclaimed, happily, “daddy, that man sings LITTLE BUNNY FOO FOO!”’”
