Early reports that Russian and Syrian forces have fled Hama airbase. More consequences of Putin’s war in Ukraine - he’s overcommitting troops to try to make progress in Ukraine and leaving himself vulnerable elsewhere. Losing in two theaters at once is pretty impressive.

Eisenhower wanted a society made up of Americans who were citizens first and soldiers second, and of soldiers who can behave in polite society, effectively offering a counterargument to the “warrior ethos” Pete Hegseth keeps pushing.

As Eisenhower Knew, Hegseth’s ‘Warrior Ethos’ Isn’t What Wins Wars
The U.S. defense secretary’s emphasis on warfighting ignores the other important factors that make a military cohesive and effective.

What is the best means of crafting and using a military? U.S. Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth seems to think it is a “warrior ethos.” But as @profpaulpoast.bsky.social writes, Eisenhower offered a much stronger argument:

The real issue isn’t left vs right. It’s not white vs black. It’s not citizen vs immigrant. It’s not gay vs straight. The real issue is that a lot of powerful people have a vested interest — and a lot of money invested — in dividing us, and it’s working.

No, Trump, it’s NOT “up to Zelenskyy alone” to FIGHT BACK against an Aggressive War Criminal Dictator like Putin. The Ukraine wants Democracy. The Ukraine is committed to NATO. NATO members banded together after WW2 to fight tyrants like Putin & Hitler. If not, Poland will be next. Have Guts

I believe that Trump is throwing Zelenskyy “under the bus”, so that Putin can install a puppet regime as Putin did in Belarus. Without US weapons and intelligence support, Putin is winning. From Trumps unethical point of view, Trump believes “he” has NOTHING TO LOSE.
