I want to say that even that statistic does not provide the full picture because one might infer that one of their carriers is the equal of one of...
That probably just depends on how you define the “size” of a navy. If it’s number of vessels, then China might have more small vessels than our...
I’m very disturbed that the President keeps implying, intentionally or not, that an end state where Russia remains in parts of Ukraine is...
What I’ve come to think of Russia’s many threats: [ATTACH]
Precisely my thoughts. Historically, when Russia does a false flag, it stokes some outrage but doesn’t actually hurt them very much. They tend to...
The Ukrainian response to that needs to be whatever the diplomatic version of “We’re open all night” is. Or as Achilles put the matter of making...
I think I would like to know a bit more about German calculus on this one. I suspect (but certainly don’t know) their earlier commitments were...

Both of those things seem to confirm — well, track with — previous rumors.
Then we are certainly fulfilling our end of the bargain.
That’s a complex question, but one accurate answer is, the people who do things like that are people who know beyond the shadow of a doubt that...
Fair point. Did COVID vaccinations also take out those homes, businesses, places of worship, Holocaust memorials, and such? The world indeed wonders.
The Ukrainian survivors who have lost their loved ones, limbs, eyesight, sanity, homes, and livelihoods will be so relieved to hear that. I’ll do...
