European Union leaders are making noises about developing a pan-European Union nuclear deterrent, be it French, British, or even EU-run. I think it's uhhhhh not happening, as I write in my latest column for @brusselssignal

"I like children and she was a child” "I kissed her to the face. I kissed her out of the love for children. Back home, all the people do that." That’s what an illegal Afghan migrant who worked for the Taliban told the court. He has been sentenced to ONLY 2 and a half years for kidnapping and sexually assaulting a 7 year old girl. Lucy Connolly was sentenced to the SAME amount of time for a TWEET about the risks of mass immigration.

There's something to the idea of other countries quietly developing a bomb (flag below) but that obviously risks pre-emptive strikes by Russia. Like many of Europe's problems, they're in a pickle entirely of their own making.

There is a certain performative quality to this kind of alarmism. If the Prime Minister genuinely believes that Russia may attack a NATO member “within months”, then the appropriate response would not be another dramatic interview with the Financial Times. It would be the immediate reintroduction of universal conscription in Poland, a comprehensive mobilisation of the state, and perhaps a plane to Washington to speak directly with President Trump. That, after all, is what statesmen do when they believe war is approaching. Instead, we get rhetoric calibrated less for serious strategic conversation than for domestic political effect: to frighten the public, to dramatise the moment, and to present oneself as the lonely guardian of national survival. The problem is that such rhetoric also has consequences abroad. If one repeatedly turns alliance management into public theatre, one should not be surprised when serious people in Washington conclude that there is little point in holding serious conversations. On the substance - the probability of a Russian attack on a NATO member “within months” is close to zero. So long as Russia remains engaged in a full-scale war against Ukraine, it has neither the political nor the military freedom to open a second front against the Alliance. Russia is dangerous, brutal and revisionist. But it is not omnipotent. So the real question is not whether Moscow is preparing to invade NATO next month. The real question is why the Polish Prime Minister has chosen to speak as if it were.
Financial Times@FT

Donald Tusk told the FT that Europe’s ‘biggest, most important question is if the United States is ready to be as loyal as it is described in our [Nato] treaties,’ as he warned that Russia could attack an alliance member in ‘months’. ft.trib.al/ckvXgTb

The most powerful trick modernity has played is removing the public disgust mechanism No sane person would allow this creature inside their country much less near a woman Your natural impulse is to destroy something this wretched, that’s a survival mechanism
