I’m takking about spending 0.3% of GDP, and you suggest giving 50% of my wage? Are you out of your mind? Giving 0.3% of GDP doesn’t affect you at all, it is not the same as giving 50% of your earnings. Even credit card fees when you pay with your Visa are higher than 0.3%. I’m advocating for a...

That’s exactly where my problem is with the West. It’s insanity that a nonsense like Covid was considered an existential threat, while a war with Russia is seen as a non-issue. If you can spend one trillion dollars for a coronavirus, you should have no problem spending 5 trillion dollars for a...

You made my point. The cost of paying the Ukrainian army like humans (not enslaving them by force) would be around 80 billion per year. The GDP of the US plus the EU is 50 trillion. $80 billion per year is only 0.16% of that. If we add $70 billion per year in equipment, weapons and ammunition...

No, that is what the IDF is doing. What Hamas did is a similar attack but at a much smaller and shorter scale, because of its limited capabilities. That attack is what started the current conflict and led to the current massacre. Hamas leaders knew very well that Israel will retaliate after...

No, I am not supporting genocide, and I am not supporting Israel in this war. But I am also not supporting Hamas, who is the party that started this current brutal phase of the war. If Hamas did’t commit that stupid and useless attack, you wouldn’t have the current genocide. So they are equally...

I am not denying the fact that Ukraine has a manpower problem, and needs more personnel. What bothers me is the way this guy expressed himself, insinuating that the West is all-in but Ukraine is not, which cannot be further from the truth. Ukraine’s effort is much bigger than the West’s effort...

Your love for terrorists is disgusting. The death and suffering of the Palestinian people is because of what Hamas did, and yet you praise these terrorists as some great heroes. Tens of thousands of innocent Palestinians have died because of Hamas, and the rest live in poverty and have lost...

This is because they fail to understand how much different the situation is now, than during the times they fougt their last war using drafted people. The last time Americans used mobilized soldiers was in Vietnam, and guess how that war ended? They lost because the people were no longer...

What a disgusting scum this guy is. In his hypocrisy, he considers the West giving some excess weapons to Ukraine as being “all-in”, and this to be the equivalent of calling up all young males to die at the frontline. If he wants Ukraine to be “all-in”, what about the West joining the war with...

I have seen the video of the meeting, and even I, as a European, I feel that the German minister was the unprofessional character. She was dressed as if she was going to the minimarket to buy some groceries, despite the fact that all the other people there were dressed like state officials...

Just like with the Malaysia Airlines plane over Donbass, the Russian air defence is expert at downing civilian planes.

After the US defeated Saddam, it turned out that the big victor in Iraq was Iran. The US seems to have learned from that mistake, and instead of overthrowing Assad themselves, they waited in the shadows ready to defend their inteests through a proxy group and win the aftermath. I think that...

I‘d say this depends greatly of which aviation we’re talking about. If a country like the US or Israel uses its aviation, the effectiveness of air defence will be zero. But for most countries which have average aviation capabilities, air defence does play a role. The fact that Russia couldn’t...

Well, those who support Gaza and the Palestinians in the West are the hard left people, so it is natural for them to also support the Marxists/Communists from PKK. They support all Marxists everywhere, and they oppose what they call “imperialism”. In their world view, Israel and Turkey are both...

Why is everyone so obsessed with AD systems? Unless you are part of NATO or Israel, investing in AD systems is a huge waste of money and resources. If you are attacked by the US or Israel, your AD systems will get annihilated quickly without being able to defend a single target. In the case of...

Any other source? That tweet is already deleted.

Ukraine will never sign away NATO entry. They won’t join NATO anytime soon, but the writing is on the wall that it will happen in the future. All it needs is a US president with balls and brains, and Putin or his successor will have to accept the inevitable. Putin couldn’t do anything about...

Russian incompetence is polluting the Black Sea: Readovka media outlet reported: “According to preliminary data, a hole was formed in the hull due to strong waves, after which the ship broke in half and began to sink.” One unconfirmed report stated: “Volgoneft-212 was built 55 years ago. It...

Putin will have no choice in this case. Ukraine will be aligned with NATO whether he likes it or not. Ukraine has decided to align with the West, and there is no turning back after this war. Putin lost Ukraine for good. What will be decided is just where the borders between Ukraine and Russia...

Allowing Russia to keep the two military bases would be a huge mistake for the new Syrian government that would have dire long term consequences for the country. If Syria wants to have a chance at a better future, it must force the Russians to leave and build good ties with Israel. This is the...
