Can a war between Russia and NATO really happen within the next few years? Recently there have been several warnings from politicians and high-level military leaders. In this video I discuss what on earth they are talking about, and what such a war might look like? And I think it's an important discussion, because the risk is bigger than many people assume.

For two years, the Biden administration led an international coalition to provide military aid to Ukraine. Majorities in the U.S. and in Congress continue to support Ukraine. Now, a minority of Republicans are preparing to cut it all off.

If they do, the US is at risk of seeming not just like an unreliable ally, but an unserious ally theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/

Remember, the Holocaust didn’t start with gas chambers.

It started with politicians dividing the people with “us vs. them”.

It started with intolerance and hate speech.

It started when people stopped caring, became desensitized, and turned a blind eye.

Remember.

Keep the memory alive.
Honour the survivors.
Never forget the Holocaust.

6 million Jewish women, men and children and all other victims, including hundreds of thousands of Roma, were murdered during the Holocaust.

79 years after the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, European Jews are once again living in fear.

We must not forget the origins: antisemitism and hatred led to the Shoah.

It is our duty to build an EU free from antisemitism, racism and discrimination.

Ukraine war, lethal weapons in use 

The grenades, Ukraine is dropping are getting deadlier.

A recent video from teoyaomiquu gives a pretty clear impression of how dangerous drones have become in this war:

Picture 1: The grenade components: 3D printed pink tail fin, white explosives component, black piston shaped trigger.

Picture 2: An area of attack.

Picture 3: Impact of 2 grenades. It seems the 2 russians on the left are wounded severely, even though they are 5 meters from the impact center.

"When all Ukrainians join hands, they won't raise them to surrender. We all fight. And today, this is true not only for the Dnipro's two banks. Today, the unity of Ukrainians spans both hemispheres of the Earth. In every corner of which, on February 24, there were people declaring: "I am Ukrainian".

Only strong Ukrainians can be united. And only united Ukrainians can be strong. Ukrainians all over the world.

Happy Unity Day! 🇺🇦"

- Volodymyr #Zelenskyy, President of #Ukraine

Nearly three-quarters of the roughly 2,500 foreign components found in russian weaponry and analyzed by #Ukraine authorities were made by U.S. producers, a database by the National Agency on Corruption Prevention (NAZK) reveals.

If you want to understand, why Russia will have a difficult time fighting in Ukraine in the long term, Anders Puck gives a great, short and to the point explanation of the production challenges of facing a country backed by NATO:

The Ukrainian 47th Brigade released a picture of the M2A2 Bradley crew which successfully destroyed the Russian T-90M.

It emphasizes again that those Ukrainian heroes are ordinary people. Teachers, repair shop workers, people with a simple life, before Russia arrived to unleash its own misery upon others.

I want to congratulate the crew for their outstanding performances beyond the call of duty.

While Ukrainians are dying on the frontline, Republican Mike Johnson still keeps delaying the weapons support for the war-torn country.

Luckily, in this excellent video, military analyst @anderspuck cuts straight through Mike Johnson’s arguments and exposes the Republican deception.

THIS! And it's not just the #NYT or the American media, it's a global problem. And it's not just a matter of military issues, it's a matter of security issues in general. It seems to me that the coverage of cybersecurity has got a little better in the last few years.

Also, as someone who has served, this is why I have turned to alternative sources like Ryan McBeth, Perun or @anderspuck since the invasion of Ukraine.
