A multiple choice survey to provoke thought and more indepth evaluation of tbe various negotiation concepts floating around out there. None of which in my view can guarantee Russian or Ukrainian compliance. Putin's reason for the war is: (choose as many as appropriate) 1) Ukrainians are...

Russia (Putin) has repeatedly stated there are no rules in war and that the ultimate strategic goal of this globally fought Cold War 2.0 / WW3 (depending on your definitions) is the replacement of the rules based order with a multi polar order based on spheres of influence and the uninhibited...

Think of "domains" as environments both physical (such as land, sea, air, space) and energy (electromagnetic = cyber and electrochemical = human brain) Parallel to the ground are the planes representing domains most commonly thought of ascending upwards as if from the earth to space: land, sea...

The domain slide or the youtube that seems to have been removed?

None to Syria, none to European members of NATO, but a real threat to the US southern border via hybrid methods such as sending lots of assylum seekers of whom some may be cells of saboteurs, sleepers and agitators to embed within the hispanic diaspora

NATO has about 4-6 months, maximum, to get their shit together or it will lose WW3 (4?) that I have been saying is underway since late 2022. Ostrich level denial that Russia, Iran, Syria (not so much anymore), China, North Korea and Venezuela have ALREADY declared a war on 'the west' that is...

Hush - he might put/keep tariffs on Canada until we actually arrive at 2% (or 3.25% or whatever the new number is) of GDP actually spent appropriately on defense

Not a bad trip report of very recent conditions in Kursk by Chris Cappy

Contrary to what seems to be the common understanding that Russia's defeat/retreat from Syria will be good for Ukraine it is my belief that in about 3 weeks +/- we will see another surge in Russian attacks. The next 2 weeks will be used to restrategize and reconstitute as well as to deploy/equip...

Worth a listen if you want to try to understand the why behind Russia and Putin

Sometimes what is old is new again. Russian AN2 biplane hunting drones at night. VFR night without goggles trying to see/chase/shoot down a Shahed must be a bitch. https://www.reddit.com/r/CombatFootage/s/ziY98hII8X

$7,100 million - $725 million still leaves $6,375 million to deliver in 50 days. There will be a lot of drawdown left unless a division or two of Abrams and Bradleys are sent (on what ships?). How about a few hundred Tomahawks and a a couple of dozen Patriot batteries with multiple reloads. That...

"There are reports that Russian commanders have invented 4 Ukrainian ghost battalions, to account for losses. Inventing enemy forces is a highly resourceful move, and it is likely to enter the permanent playbook for Russian high level commanders" (Pen2net@bsky.social)

"Maidan" 2.0 begins. If Ukraine releases the Georgian Legion volunteers (with personal weapons and some drones) and maybe some Iglas or higher altitude capable AA assets to take out glide bomb bombers this could become yet another front for Russia to cope with.

Have not seen this map before. Sets out a 20 year plan for absorbing Ukraine into NovoRussia That said my 2¢ is that (1) a chunk of Kursk will still be in Ukrainian hands by mid January (2) Russia will gave gained another few thousand square km of fields, treelines and pulverized villages...

Only AFTER full membership is signed and ratified by all 32 NATO members, not just based on some sort of MOU or a position part way through the accession process

Here's hoping he delegates the Ukraine file and decisions to Kellogg and Rubio and that Hegseth does not survive confirmation
