My favourite moments of this iteration of the ”US-Russia peace plan” were: 1. Dmitriev leaking it 2. The points admitting that Russia does kidnap Ukrainian children 3. The points including that Ukraine shouldn’t hit Moscow or St Petersburg ”without a cause” (Tbc)

I read the EU's ReArm Europe Plan/Readiness 2030 Plan... it's useless as it caps defence spending increases at 1.5% and lasts only for 4 years. You can tell that the frugals (🇳🇱🇦🇹 etc.) and russian lackeys (🇭🇺) don't care about investing in European defence. This is mad! 1/12

Italian Army Alpini troops with Swedish BV206S vehicles in the Dolomites. The kind of vehicle you need if you think about fighting russians in Northern Finland. 🇪🇺🇮🇹🇸🇪🇫🇮

Kinzinger: There’s a reason that every Trump cabinet member has had to tweet how strong he was today. Because they got the memo from The White House that they better come out and support Trump because this is a really bad day for them and they know it

After looking at warhead debris from Dnipro I can say: • this is not: "russia is firing ICBMs at Ukraine" • this is: "russia is disposing test missiles with inert warhead mockups of its failed illegal IRBM program in the cheapest way possible" and Western idiots fall for it.

Last night russia fired a RS-26 IRBM (!! NOT AN ICBM !!) from the Kapustin Yar test site at Dnipro in Ukraine. Test site? Yes, of course test site. The RS-26 never went into production and russia rid itself of its last test model last night.

Everyone, pro-russia & pro-Ukraine, is going with "ICBM" today, because it suits their narrative. Wasn't an ICBM. Was an IRBM. IRBMs are banned by the INF Treaty. russia broke the treaty in 2011 by deploying RS-26s, which russia calls "ICBM" to claim it didn't break the treaty.

🇬🇧 British Army (74,000 troops): We have a "recruiting crisis". There are too few volunteers. Young people don't want to join the military. 🇮🇹 Italian Army (94,000 troops): 9,800 volunteers joined and we had to send 59,000 volunteers away, because we hit our annual recruiting goal in March.

Italy just sent an Italian Navy officer, who tried to spy for russia to prison for 29 years. If he had murdered someone, he would have gotten 20 years. But he took €5,000 from the russians for bringing them 57 secret NATO files... got caught on the way and will die in prison.

putin will not strike Ukraine with a ICBM, tactical nuke or similar. Trump isn't president yet and putin needs Trump to "win" the war. Striking Ukraine with a weapon that will cause a global outrage will drive Trump away from brownnosing putin. ICBM and nuke talk is bullshit.

What I like about the UK: • spends a ton of money to upgrade HMS Bulwark, then immediately scraps it. • spends a ton of money to upgrade Puma Helicopters, then immediately scraps them. • spends a ton of money to upgrade Watchekkper, then immediately scraps them. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Usually when someone talks about Italy's military I despair. So little knowledge... but just now @surivoron.bsky.social sent me this video by @michaelshurkin.bsky.social and I have zero notes; found no errors; agree with all! And that is beautiful. www.youtube.com/watch?v=vh4e...

Italy's 2024 defence budget is just 45.03% of the UK's 2024 defence budget... and yet: 🇮🇹 Italian Navy > 🇬🇧 Royal Navy 🇮🇹 Italian Army > 🇬🇧 British Army 🇮🇹 Italian Air Force > 🇬🇧 Royal Air Force The UK has less ships, less fighters, fewer troops etc. Britain nowadays is just a big useless Ireland.

Storm Shadow and ATACMS are blowing up military targets in russia... and the Kremlin goons are silent. Their bluff has been called. Alas, Trump voting morons in the West are waaaaay toooo dumb to realize they have been played by putin.

Trump's nominee for Secretary of Defense: 1) is a Christian-nationalist 2) supports war criminals 3) assaults women 4) has an alcohol problem 5) is a uneducated moron 6) is an serial adulterer and yet he is NOT the most horrific among Trump's national security nominees...

1) amazing animation 2) captivating characters 3) stunning story 4) gut-wrenching twists #Arcane is a masterpiece! Each single episode of Season 2 delivers more brilliance then entire seasons of other shows released this year.

Trump is not allowing the FBI to conduct a background check of his nominee for Director of National Intelligence... So THE only person in the US' 100,000+ strong intelligence community that is not vetted will the Director of National Intelligence... ... ...

All Trump cabinet members are uneducated nincompoops, who got their current position due to slavish obedience to the MAGA Fuhrer. Competent people would refuse to muck up their departments, because they understand the consequences to their actions. Trump's gang of nincompoops doesn't.
