So, just got newsletter from German Marshall Fund headlined ‘Iran War Is Shaking Up European Security Scene’. Uhh.. I kinda thought Russia has been doing it since 2014 by invading Ukraine and by sabotage, cyber attacks, sending drones and spy agents around Europe , but ok
Russian President Putin must realize that Russia is no longer capable of winning a war against Ukraine. However, he fears the fate of Nicholas II, the last Russian emperor who was executed after his abdication, former special envoy of the President of the US. RBC

Today’s case of: there are no complex problems in the world, its just a case of everyone other than me is too stupid to think of my special big brain idea and then I can yell at others about “common sense”.
Congratulations, a new member of the herd! 🐮
A clear majority (eyeball: 80-90%?) of tankers present in and around Hormuz strait are sanctioned ones.
Probably not news to insiders, like @TankerTrackers who got me the sanctions-list, but it was to me.
How the Russian intelligence services, with an okay from Putin, decided to use DHL parcel deliveries to bomb warehouses all across Europe. An essential read on Russia's idea of hybrid warfare against Europe. www.bbc.com/news/article...
Something is wrong when US prioritize an unprovoked war over defending a democracy against genocide.
Putin and Trump want Orban to win, and are willing to interfere and intervene to get their way. A major test for the EU and liberal democracy in Europe. Also for Hungarian voters.

"... the security architecture of Central and Eastern Europe requires a secure Ukraine, because Ukraine is the keystone.
If that stone falls out, the whole structure collapses."
Case in point, re veracity of AIS-data. It all anomalies.
Agree. Iranian people will be worse off now than before. Chaos & destruction everywhere. Just a war crime catastrophe.
Ironically exceptionalism got them here and will be the end of them
Fcuking idiots just realized what those floaty things in the water are….💣
Good, it needed to be stated explicitly

Great work by Ben McKenzie on the big bullshit that is crypto. A recent paper, authored by Hyun Song Shin, proves that blockchain's structure and gas fees is not scalable and not designed to give money social value.

100% correct. ✅
There’s cool, and then there’s Ukrainian cool.
Damn! Congratulations!!! ✊ 🤗
Yet again @sarahkendzior.blsky.social lays it all for us. “The same families appear, again and again, in a transnational crime network that profits off war. …the Iran War can only remind one of Epstein and Maxwell, for many of the same people tied to them are also tied to this war.”
🤫 Unconfirmed rumors of paper shredders working overtime in some Orbán government-funded GONGOs, as well as mid-tier bureaucrats of state institutions stocking up on compromising material (on their own bosses) to help save their jobs in case of a government change
Train wreak incompetents Trump & Hegseth didn’t think of this?
Unless they are working for the mutual benefit of Russia and their own crime families, in which case they’ve been stuningly successful.
Oh to see Moscow pulverized to ashes…but this is magnificent.
"there are a lot of dead bodies of soldiers in the Vovchansk axis, because the Russians don’t take them away.
“We saw Russians climbing over the bodies of their own people” noting that this factor has a big influence on Russians’ psychological condition and their decision to surrender."
