Today hundreds rallied in DC for America to enforce a no-fly zone in Ukraine, effectively promising to shoot down Russian jets in that airspace.
The group played a "lullaby" video with images of babies and lyrics like, "If you don't close the sky, I will die."

Full lyrics:
"If you don't close the sky I will die
IYDCTS mom will cry
IYDCTS he'll lose home
IYDCTS there'll be doom
IYDCTS the sky will still fight
IYDCTS we'll feel the night
IYDCTS he [Putin] might win
Now look in these eyes and think again"
"If you don't close the sky I will die
IYDCTS mom will cry

IYDCTS there'll be doom
IYDCTS the sky will still fight
IYDCTS we'll feel the night
IYDCTS he [Putin] might win
Now look in these eyes and think again"

'Defending Democracy Together' Director @BillKristol praised "the people of Ukraine who are reminding us what free men and women can do under brutal assault from an aggressor, from a dictator who is violating obviously all the laws of war and norms of decency."
"I really do hope - we can quarrel about some of the details - but I think we can come. We are coming to the help of those fighting for Europe in the 21st Century."

"Give Ukraine anti-aircraft weapons, please."
