@EldarMamedov4 Washed out German politicians will never miss an opportunity to humiliate themselves. Either they live with the guilt of their forefathers's sin and should just sit it out. Or they have some completely naive understanding of the world. Regardless, absolute clowns for all to see.

This morally & intellectually bankrupt German liberal fanatic has never met a war he didn’t like. Completely out of step with the German public—only 12% support strikes—yet disproportionately amplified by the failed punditry class.

Nebenbei: Israel und die USA haben diesen Krieg nicht begonnen. Das iranische Regime führt ihn schon lange, an diversen Fronten und mit diversen Hilfstruppen. Die europäischen Regierungen, die jetzt den Entwaffnungs-Angriff auf den Iran kritisieren, haben ihn durch ihre Passivität gegenüber der Gewaltpolitik der Fanatiker in Teheran mit zu verantworten.

@RocksGin @sirenblep Think strategically, quel meilleur moyen de prouver que t'es un genuine Canadien si tu peux pas déballer 2-3 punchlines dans la langue de Molière ? It's going to be tough to be a yank outside the USA and they will definitely usurp your rightful 🍁 identity. Allez viens!

@sirenblep Because only 20% of our population have French as a first language? And because far less than 1% of Francophones don't also speak English? And in light of all that, our military, courts, post offices, trains, labeling etc. all has to be bilingual for that less-than-1%. Crazy.

I’m Albertan—you’re wrong and don’t care about Canada. You don’t care about what has happened on this land, and it’s repulsive. I’m genuinely at a fucking loss as to what to say to you. What is WRONG with you to show this level of disrespect to other Canadians? If you cannot even fucking RECOGNIZE how important language and culture is to the Québécois—then how are we supposed to expect you to give a shit and care about Canadian culture as a whole? To protect and defend it from American threat of assimilation? Culture needs to be cultivated. Neglect lets it wither—don’t try blaming your own callousness on a ‘brown thumb’.
Candice Bergen Harris@CandiceBergen_

Mr. Rousseau is expressing what millions of Canadians who don’t know french and have tried to learn it feel. What I am tired of is that a few elites (in Ontario primarily) get to tell the 80% of Canadians who don’t speak french fluently that we need to sit on the sidelines. It’s time for a conversation about what 2 official languages actually means. What’s transpired over the last few days is not about the communication or language but about control.

@admcollingwood @ElbridgeColby It's an important lesson (a reminder rather) for all of us, very easy to go from frontier exploration and scientific leaps (i.e. Apollo 14) to incestuous degeneration due to reckless hubris and complacent (ignorant) self-serving populace. Lest we forget.

Collingwood 🇬🇧@admcollingwood·
This was exactly the scenario the Prioritisers in Washington, such as @ElbridgeColby, warned about. They were wafted away almost disdainfully. And remember, folks, we're not even talking about what's left to defend against China, the US's most important rival. It's over. It took the neocons only 25 years to squander a near impregnable geopolitical position, in which the United States was more stronger than its rivals than any great power had been in history, and, as William Wohlforth wrote in 1999, was the first nation in history to be decisively stronger in every individual aspect of power -- military, economic, technological and geopolitical -- than any of its rivals. And they took only a quarter of a century to destroy that position. They will be judged by future historians to have been contemptible dilettantes, disgracefully selfish and monstrously hubristic, driven by their emotions rather than their minds, unwilling to account for consequences, and blunderingly malfeasant. They took the greatest geopolitical, economic, social, political and technological heritage in the history of the world and squandered it within only a quarter of a century.

"The Pentagon is considering whether to divert weapons intended for Ukraine to the Middle East as the war in Iran depletes some of the U.S. military’s most critical munitions, according to three people familiar with the matter. Although a final decision to redirect the equipment has not yet been made, the shift would highlight the growing trade-offs required to sustain the war with Iran, where U.S. Central Command has hit more than 9,000 targets in just under four weeks of fighting. The weapons that could be diverted away from Ukraine include air defense interceptor missiles, ordered through a NATO program launched last year in which partner countries buy U.S. arms for Kyiv, the three people said, speaking on the condition of anonymity to describe the Pentagon’s sensitive deliberations... Since last summer, the official said, the [PURL] initiative has supplied 75 percent of the missiles for Ukraine’s Patriot batteries and nearly all of the ammunition used in its other air defense systems." @noahjrobertson @ellen_fra washingtonpost.com/national-secur…

@KuittinenPetri @pati_marins64 The dichotomy is painful, you'd think the country home to Hollywood would be able to muster something more inspired than edgy COD-like montages. Meanwhile Iran does storytelling (the podium of coffins) and I wouldn't put it past them to give us an "Independence Day" inspired one.

@pati_marins64 I've seen plenty of war propaganda from the White House and from the pro-Iranian side. I think the latter isn't officially made, but fanfic. The pro-Iranian side are far better, with carefully planned emotional effect, while WH propaganda is there just to instill fear.

@HenrikCkrogh @MichaelShurkin True as it stands but I suspect the opposite (USA's position on GL and many more things) might become more and more untenable too. The appetite for ostentatious displays of power might end up taking a sharp dive a few months from now on.

If we open those bases, Trump will claim vindication for his tough talk. But in truth we always had the ability to open new bases. All we had to do was ask. This way, though, we get our bases but at the high price of antagonizing our allies, whose help we now would like.

USA wants three new military facilities in Greenland The United States is quietly negotiating with Denmark to gain access to three additional defense areas in Greenland—beyond Pituffik Space Base (formerly Thule Air Base) in northern Greenland. This was stated by General Gregory Guillot, commander of United States Northern Command, during a Senate hearing in Washington on Thursday, March 19. At the same time, the American top general described Denmark and Greenland as “highly cooperative,” saying that all U.S. requests are being accommodated and that everything can be handled within the existing 1951 defense agreement between Denmark and the United States. According to General Guillot, there are “three defense areas that we would like to negotiate with Denmark and Greenland about.” Possible locations Marc Jacobsen, a lecturer at the Royal Danish Defence College, said the general’s remarks indicate strong communication between senior military officials in Denmark and the U.S.: “That is positive for Denmark.” The Senate hearing did not specify which areas are being considered, but Jacobsen suggests three likely candidates: —Narsarsuaq in southern Greenland, which has a deep-water port —Kangerlussuaq in southwestern Greenland, capable of handling large aircraft —A deep-water port near Pituffik Space Base These locations are notable because they were among the first places where the U.S. established military bases in Greenland.

Iran has thousands and thousands of FPV drones....so yes, it will be like all of the gruesome videos we see out of Ukraine....with emphasis on that last private snuffy looking at the drone about to kill him still shot...... Americans are not ready at all for that.....this is a new world of warfare.....Ukraine has perfected it, has kept them alive..... We put boots on the ground anywhere within 30 miles of the Iranian mainland and we going to be seeing a shitload of war porn FPV videos of American troops getting snuffed

@RobertJMolnar I am honestly concerned we are going to watch private snuffy eat a barrel in 4K while drones surround and taunt him. Our American psych is not ready for that.

The most shocking thing about Russia is the combination of nationalism and extreme contempt of the ruling class (mostly ethnically Russian, too) towards the country. They'd rather pay you $200K to die like a pig than train an effective soldier for $100K. Likewise in everything.

I just want to point out that it shocks me how Russia (and the Soviet Union in the past) depends on foreign oil field equipment. Considering how oil is Russia’s biggest export, you would think they would build their own oil field equipment.

At the risk of sounding like an annoying nerd, but *ackchyually* I think the rules of the contract were probably pretty clear: the U.S. can use the purchased weapons if it has a strategic necessity (which they think Iran is), at the condition that it then produces equivalent systems in the future and delivers them to Europe. I imagine the deferred delivery clause also contains provisions about interest rates on deferred payments for deferred deliveries and such legalistic/financial blabla. Turns out reality is more complicated than a Washington Post headline (shocker, I know). This is what happens when Europe’s strategic needs (Ukraine) don’t match the strategic needs of America (Iran) AND Europe is fully dependent on the U.S. for advanced weaponry… if you want to complain, you should write a letter to the German chancellor and the Polish PM (mostly I think, I need to take a look at the numbers).

I mean, how the hell is this even legal? Was it part of the contract that the seller is entitled to say “screw you and the money you've paid us, we're talking these weapons for ourselves”?

This is truly insane, and it should be front page news across America.  Denmark secretly deployed soldiers to Greenland prepared to blow up airport runways to stop a U.S. invasion. They brought blood supplies to treat the wounded. France, Germany, Norway, and Sweden quietly coordinated against us. This was not a drill. This was our closest allies preparing to fight Americans. Let that sink in. NATO allies. Countries whose soldiers have fought and died alongside ours for decades. They looked at this president and decided they had to prepare for the worst. Fewer allies does not make America great. It makes us more isolated, more vulnerable, and it hands Russia and China exactly what they have always wanted: an America abandoned by its friends. The American people deserve to know how badly this president has damaged our standing in the world.  bbc.com/news/articles/…

If you want to understand the US, this video would be a very good place to start The median American is not interested in what happens overseas. This is a constraint on the US government (voters don’t like foreign adventurism) but also liberates the government as well (you can do what you want and you don’t need to build “consensus” at home. Do most Americans support the air war in Iran? Does it matter? Even asking the question is the wrong frame in my opinion) But woe to the politician in DC who forgets The First Commandment of American interventionism: Thou Shalt Not Visit the Consequences on Americans America is very big, very rich, and usually able to externalize the downsides of its foreign policy on others. So in practice, American politicians can get away with a lot. But most countries don’t have this luxury You read a lot of moralizing commentary on X about how America’s decisions will inevitably blow back on the US. But this never really seems to happen. Believing in some sort of divine or programmed moral comeuppance is a kind of cope. It will never arrive

This makes four Arab nations that have expelled Islamic Republic of Iran diplomats in the last week. Lebanon joins Saudi Arabia, UAE, and Qatar.
