Turkey has officially dropped its opposition to Sweden and Finland joining NATO. No idea what this is going to cost us, but it was probably worth...
There might be another element to the degree to which Ukrainians are willing to stand and fight versus trading space for time (which is the...
Agree, but no I don’t think the President would do that. We seem to be doing everything we can to get out of Russia’s way and not give them an...
All the more reason they should be more scared of their nuclear threats than we should be.
Clarifying my “like” above: I am happy to hear about the long-range rocket artillery. Emotionally, I agree with the language about our embassy....
The trend still seems to be that Russia is slowly but steadily gaining ground, as predicted, but is still taking enormous casualties. This...
Not allowing freedom movement through one’s own territory and conducting a blockade are two different things … except in the rare circumstance...
What is your purpose in showing an interview under duress? Surely, you can’t actually believe that anything those men would say is their true...

Germany held (and if we’re being honest probably still holds) special meaning for East Prussia, the Sudentenland, Austria, Alsace-Lorraine et al....
Good to hear your friend is still with us, and Ukraine still has much fight left in it. Thank you for sharing.
There is a lot of hope in your position, but hope is not a strategy. I don’t know what that poster meant by “all out,” because that limit has...
Some would. I still say we can strangle this thing in its crib.
Once again, this kind of thinking flows from assumptions that Russia’s hunger will be satiated by Ukraine and that China will do nothing. And,...
Not to be snarky, but do you want WW3? Do you really think this ends at Ukraine? China has not even made its move yet, but they are taking notes...
