Hereโ€™s a picture of me, a European, security freeloading in Afghanistan as part of a US Army special forces task force.

Look! They even gave me a special โ€œfreeloaderโ€ badge to wear above my medals.

12 close friends and colleagues killed when they were there freeloading too.

Zelenskyy is a ten times a man compared to the other two, put together.

Two moral weakling, tyrant-fellating, cheap showmen for simpletons, barking at one of modern historyโ€™s great men. What an age we live in.

We're waking up to a new US/Russia axis Why Trump clings to Putin.

Trump could have pushed for an end to the war in Ukraine without becoming actively hostile to Ukraine. Instead, he has imbibed Putinโ€™s lies. Have written about the emergence of a new US/Russia axis, where it comes from and the staggering implications for Europe.

Trumpโ€™s shift on Ukraine: America's new approach to NATO and global diplomacy .โ€œOperation Minimiseโ€ were words feared by every British serviceman and woman in Afghanistan. This was the call to cut communication home until the families of wounded or killed soldiers were notified...

@mrandrewfox.bsky.social writes for @lbc.co.uk on Trump's shift towards Ukraine, the risks of sidelining NATO, and standing firm against authoritarian aggression.

On this Holocaust Memorial Day we remember all those murdered, including 6 million Jews, whose deaths are a stark reminder of the devastating consequences when prejudice and hatred go unchecked.

Iโ€™ve been recommending that for months tbf. Lack of political direction is why it hasnโ€™t happened, is my best guess. The Israelis are peerless at operational design but poor at strategy.
