They're already laying the groundwork for Ukrainian integration into the EU

Words mean something and Zelensky's words are telling. "The connection with Europe is getting stronger". 


Suspected sabotage on HMS Glasgow

The UK was within hours of conducting an airborne op into Sudan with their entire Parachute Regiment (to include reservists)

 

Is it just me or does it seem to that UK is much more "aggressive" lately. The conditions on the ground were obviously much worse than we all though (and I thought it was pretty bad).

100 year old Nazi Guard stands trial. I'm conflicted.

 

Don't get it twisted.

I have absolutely no sympathy for this guy but let's get real.

He's 100 fucking years old.  

Does a conviction and prison time even matter at this point? 

To be blunt.

He's escaped man's justice and its up to God to deal with him.

Brit supplied Storm Shadow cruise missile already in use by Ukraine

Wow. This might be a problem. They definitely need some type of office that has only one function. To decide if a target should be gone after and if so then what weapon to use. As things now stand it appears they're just burning thru all types of weaponry without a care as to rationing at least a bit of it for a rainy day...or a truly high value, time sensitive target that is worthy of a 2.2 million dollar missile.

Robert F. Kennedy on the Russell Brand Show...

RFK Jr. would wipe the floor with Biden. No wonder the DNC is fighting so hard to make sure their isn't a primary challenge.

France's 13th Engineer Regiment conducting bridging ops with Griffon Mult-Role Vehicles...

The Griffon has really grown on me. Bigger than the JLTV (but the French use the Serval in that role) I don't know how it would be classified in US service. It's weight is probably a concern even though it carries 8 fully equipped soldiers (25 tons). This is an interesting vehicle. Not quite an infantry fighting vehicle, but better than a truck that's been armored up (can't forget about the fold down bench either) its quite the odd but beautiful duck. Maybe a lower cost surrogate VBCI for operations other than high intensity combat?

We spend our ammunition among other things to halt the fleeing? WTF is going on with WAGNER???

If you've been listening to Prigozhin then it sounds like the Ukrainian counter offensive has begun. Is this a distraction while they prepare to strike in other areas? Are they assuming the Russians will thin their lines to reinforce the fight around Bakhmut? This thing turned from sugar to shit for the Russians real quick. What changed? No. What's real!

Could this be S. Korea's next gen optionally manned MBT?
