Forcing Russia to fully give up on Syria because they have no hope of being able to militarily support a two front war (even if one front is a proxy war) would be a huge win for the West. The flip side of the argument is that keeping Russian military assets in Syria, makes them less capable of...

A juicy bombing campaign seems in order here by the American government, in response to their soldiers being killed. Russia already has their hands more than full in Ukraine and can't be of significant help here, without substantially damaging their ongoing war effort. The Russian Air Force is...

Greece 🇬🇷 has announced a new $200 million usd military aid package for Ukraine. The details of the package have not yet been released, but it's likely to consist of armored vehicles. USA 🇺🇸 just agreed to sell Greece 40 F-35s and in the process, gifted them 60 Bradley IFVs, 2 C-130H and 10...

Per Reuters: 14 Russian oil tankers cannot unload their fuel because of a payment dispute between Russia and India. India refuses to pay for the oil in USD, which Russia badly needs, so they can sell it off on foreign markets, keeping the Ruble from falling off a cliff and inflation going...

- Turkey 🇹🇷 and USA 🇺🇸 negotiated a deal for Patriot systems but couldn't come to an agreement on price and the United States was not comfortable selling Turkey the technology to manufacture domestically. - Turkey 🇹🇷 tried to force USA's hand by agreeing to negotiate for China's FD-2000 system...

Orban will continue to stall, have no doubts about that. With that said, his welfare country isn't getting any of the money it needs from the EU until it gets in line with the rest of NATO / EU countries, so his hands are, ultimately, tied.

Turkish 🇹🇷 President, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, officially ratified Turkish Parliament's vote to bring Sweden into NATO! That officially leaves Viktor Orban and Hungary 🇭🇺 as the last party to ratify. Orban has recently stated that he will not block Sweden's ascension into NATO, after the EU...

Some news about more defense aid coming to Ukraine that I've collected over the last couple days. France 🇫🇷 has delivered 2 additional LRU (M270) MLRS to Ukraine. France 🇫🇷 will deliver 6 additional CAESAR 155mm self-propelled howitzers to Ukraine. France 🇫🇷 sold 6 additional CAESAR 155mm...

Germany 🇩🇪 and Britain 🇬🇧 are working on a deal in which Germany will send Taurus cruise missiles to Britain and in turn, Britain will send additional Storm Shadow cruise missiles to Ukraine. Storm Shadow has already proven effective for Ukraine. If they can get 50+ additional missiles via...

I'm more than happy to debate anything happening on the ground. But as I've said from the beginning, I'm not going to be emotionally manipulated by the ongoings / outcome of the war. I think it's best for the West if Israel has some measure of success, because anything that hurts the Iran /...

The best man in combat is the one who brings the best capabilities to the battlefield. War is not a test of purity. It's a test of will power and capability.

Ukraine, with help from the West, should be planning to exploit Russia's geography and it's spread thin air defense systems to absolutely decimate the energy and natural resource components of Western Russia, using cheap, long range drones by the thousands. The size of Russia makes is damn...

The age old expression "actions speak louder than words" applies well here. Ignore the noise. People say all kinds of things. Pay attention to actions. The reality is that Israel has killed 1/10th of the people they could have killed by now (that's probably even understated) if their goal was...

If Israel 🇮🇱 does in fact make the push down into Khan Yunis that some are expecting, it will be interesting to see if HAMAS is better prepared to defend that sector of the strip. I thought they got steam rolled pretty quickly in the North and while they're still putting up some resistance, they...

Israel is not "massacering" Palestinian civilians. If you want to have an honest conversation about the conflict, you have stop perpetuating that nonsense. Israel allowed hundreds of thousands of Gazans to flee to a safer part of Palestine, many on foot, using a route established by Israel. If...

Turkey had their time in the sun and it passed in defeat, as happens with all great empires. Some day the USA will not be what they are now and somebody else (possibly China) will step in to be the big player in the world. That's how history has proven to go!

But it's the only way wars are fought successfully. Nobody is calling for the genocide / extermination of a population. All you can do is try to eliminate as many militants on the opposing side as is possible and drain them of their will and resources to make. Only then can you come to a lasting...

That's why I don't get bent out of shape like many in the West when HAMAS launches indiscriminate missile attacks into Israel that kill civilians and, likewise, I don't lose my mind when Israel flattens some infrastructure and some civilians happen to die as a result. Good luck trying to win a...

It's important to know who you're fighting and what they believe. Both sides have been invoking ancient scripture in this religiously bolstered war. That's why you must be willing to do the dirty work (despite international scrutiny) if you're either combatant in this conflict. Because if you're...

There is still some that Hamas is able to use. If you're Israel, it has to go ASAP. There also has to be extremely tight surveillance on the boarder with Egypt to make sure weapons and supplies aren't getting in that way. Obviously, sea access has already been cut off. That way, only the...
