It’s incredible how many soldiers are packed together in the open like that. If they were doing something like that in Ukraine, they would all be dead. The first drone would have disabled the helicopeter, and there would be many drones to hunt the soldiers one by one after that. It’s obvious...

This seems to be only Russian propaganda. Both the UK and Romanian authorities denied the Russian report. What is known is that the drone crushed inside Romanian theritory, but it was most likely shot down by Ukrainians. Anyway, the British pilots had clearence to shoot if they deemed...

NATO is already dead. As long as the US is inside, the credibility is zero. When one of the biggest threats to NATO members is a NATO member itself, what does it say about the alliance? Europe needs to do its own NATO, to defend against the US. This is where future threats will come from.

While it may sound far fatched now, I think that if Europe doesn’t gets its act together when it comes to defense, and if Trump’s regime manages to remain in power in the US, things could get ugly in the Atlantic. I think Trumpists could set their eyes on European islands in the Atlantic. They...

It’s very interesting to see how people really don’t care about killings done inside their religion, but once some of their own are killed by some of a different faith, everyone gets mad. The same goes for race. When Muslims kill Muslims, nobody cares (Sudan, Iran -Iraq war, etc.) When...

There’s not much China can do. The US controls the oceans, and with that, it can control trade. China is dependent on imports of natural resources, which requieres open seas, and on exports of products, which again require open seas. China is trade dependent, and the US has the power to stop...

Watch this video, and you’ll find the answer to your question.

As things stand now, Russia is doomed to lose the war. If they were smart, they would have tried to negotiate a peace now, while the Ukrainians have something to gain from a negotiated settlement. But Putin is too stupid to accept defeat, so he would go on with the war until there is nothing...

Good riddance.

Trump’s endorsement is toxic in Europe now. Having Trump’s support is a sure way to lose the elections. After his hatred for Ukraine and Greenland threats, Europe is mostly anti-Trump. Add the war in Iran, and his support in Europe is low even in far-right circles.

I don’t think Trump understands the concepts of culture and civilization. Keep in mind that he is an uneducated brute who probably thinks that civilization means five stars hotels and golf courses, and maybe industrial capabilities. Anything that can’t be measured in billions of dollars is...

This sounds like the subject of a future Hollywood movie.

And who wins and who loses from high oil prices? Winners: Russia, USA, Canada Losers: Europe, China, Japan, South Korea The US created a mess, and as always, it is others who pay the price.

The US has dragged Europe into countless useless wars that created migration problems that affected Europe. But when a European country was attacked, the US quickly found excuses that it was not their war, that they had a big beautiful ocean separating them from Europe. When Europe needed their...

Trump is almost 80 years old, with signs of dementia and lack of sleep. Don’t expect strategy from him. He probably has trouble remembering how he got into this war in the first place.
