Just an armchair chieftain trying to make sense of world politics and conflicts. 100% pro-Ukraine, 100% pro-democracy.

Born and raised in Sweden. Exported to Canada. Lived about half my life in Canada. I love both countries.

The profile picture is a replica of a Viking helmet. And no, the Vikings didn't have horns on their helmets. That was introduced in Wagner's opera The Ring of the Nibelung.

The header picture is of the Viking castle in Trelleborg (also called Trelleborgen).

Okay, this is Russian drone footage from the 2nd Guards Tank Army. A Ukrainian M2A2 Bradley is hit, but the crew survives and is rescued by a second Bradley. Leave no one behind. Heroiam slava!

This is what Russian military units call for. Total Ukrainian destruction.

--

The Ukrainian armed forces' strikes on Crimea, Belgorod, Luhansk, Donetsk... will continue until the response to them is many times more powerful, more tangible and, however it sounds, bloodier.

The more painful and vulnerable the response, the less desire to continue. The more destruction and deaths the response will bring, the more thoughts it will generate....

We have been leveling cities, torturing, raping, killing, plundering and abducting children for so long, my army seriously needs a break, before all those western weapons arrive, and we lose the war.

Therefore, I think western countries should give us a breather, so I can replenish my troops and get back to full blown genocide in about 6-12 months.

Eva doesn't need to spoon feed you historical facts about why you can't negotiate peace deals with Putin. There is plenty of information about what happens to peace deals and treaties that bear Putin's signature. If you don't know about them, then you should educate yourself on the subject before you come with another naive "question"/opinion.

    Since we now know Alito was flying his flag upside down at the time, letโ€™s review one of the plans the coup plotters had involving him.

    This interview by criminal defendant Powell is interesting. It suggests that the purpose of the insurrection was to DELAY the electoral college certification to give time to intervene on this legal challenge. But, Powell says they didnโ€™t anticipate Pelosi reconvening Congress that day.

    The Russians are good at war crimes. I doubt that even a handful of these war criminals will be brought to justice after the war. There won't be any Nuremberg-style trials. Russia won't allow it, and to appease the Russians, France and others won't pursue it. We'll just go back to business as usual.
