For twenty years, one group of countries has been called paranoid about Russia. Check their forecasting record.
2008, as Russian columns rolled into my country, Poland's president stood in Tbilisi and said: today Georgia, tomorrow Ukraine, then the Baltic states, then perhaps Poland. Western capitals found it excitable.
2014, after Crimea, the same eastern flank warned the invasion would not stop there. Overreaction, said the seminar.
2021, as the buildup grew, Balts and Poles said full invasion. Berlin and Paris knew better, until the morning they didn't.
Since then: the same capitals warned of sabotage campaigns, of drones over infrastructure, of false flags — each warning dismissed, each confirmed on schedule. This week Lithuania pre-announced a possible Russian false-flag against the Baltics, publishing the play before it can be run.
The record now reads: right about 2008, right about 2014, right about 2022, right about the sabotage. A hundred percent — the best forecasting performance in modern European security.
They are still called alarmist, by capitals batting zero.
Paranoia is what experience is named by people who haven't had any.
Listen to the scoreboard.
Ils n’ont aucune dignité, ils arrivent à se regarder dans un miroir et croiser leurs mères, sœurs et compagnes ? Pour ces dernières j’espère que cela agira comme un électro choc et qu’elles les quitteront. Si par malheur certains sont pères, je plains leurs enfants….
WOW -- Danish reporter *goes there* with Mark Rutte
"You sit next to Donald Trump at moments when he talks about conquering Greenland, talks about lashing out at allies like Spain -- things it doesn't seem like the old Mark Rutte would approve of. Does this have any affect on your self-respect when you sit there and say nothing?"
@daligerin@WalshFreedom Your president did not fight for your country, he just cheated with the help of the corrupt infantino! Hopefully Belgium just put things in order.
BREAKING: HELL YEAH! Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen defies Trump by boldly declaring that her country will defend “every inch” of NATO as Trump threatens Greenland.
This is true courage in the face of fascism…
“We will defend the kingdom of Denmark,” Frederiksen said at the NATO summit in Turkey.
The remarks came after Trump once again insisted that the United States must annex Greenland for “national security” purposes.
“Greenland is a big problem for us. We need it for protection of the world, not just the United States, and it’s very important,” he said. “It doesn’t help Denmark.”
In reality, Trump’s deranged dreams of territorial conquest have nothing to do with defense. Greenland is part of NATO, so the U.S. already has de facto military control of the island. Simply slapping American “ownership” over it accomplishes nothing beyond flattering Trump’s ego.
And that’s what this is really about.
The same megalomania that possessed him to try in vain to chisel his name into the Kennedy Center and erect a gaudy ballroom is now driving him to gobble up Greenland. Trump wants to be remembered as a President who seized more territory since he has no actual achievements to his name.
Thankfully, the rest of the world is done being pushed around by this dementia-riddled bully.
“We are ready to defend every inch of NATO, including our own territory,” said Frederiksen.
“We are a sovereign state and we need everyone to respect our territorial integrity and our sovereignty,” she added. “Article 5 is our insurance.”
Much to MAGA’s chagrin, the EU is standing with the Danish.
“Decisions about the future of Greenland are for Greenlanders and Danes to decide,” said Olof Gill, a spokesman for the European Commission. “Territorial integrity, national sovereignty and inviolability of borders are fundamental principles of international law.”
The safest bet is that Trump will soon move on to some other distraction after this summit concludes and Greenland will remain free. But the damage he’s done through rhetoric alone is incalculable. Our core military alliances have been deeply shaken and our once close European friends realize that they can no longer trust the United States.
When he finally slithers out of the Oval Office, Trump will leave behind a weaker, less stable, more isolated America than the one he inherited.
Please ❤️ and share if you stand with the people of Greenland!
Passer sa vie à parler de laxisme, d’insécurité, de la lutte contre la délinquance.
Être définitivement condamnée.
Promettre de ne pas se présenter sous bracelet électronique… Finalement pour y aller avec.
La honte a un nom : #LePen
Bondi vient d'envoyer 1 lettre aux autorités du Minnesota indiquant que l'ICE partira si l'État remet sa base de données électorales à Trump. Il n'a jamais été question de sécurité ni d'immigration. C'est un prétexte pour que Trump contrôle les élections dans les États clés.

La France, nouveau leader du renseignement ukrainien ?
E. Macron a affirmé, le 15 janvier, que les deux tiers du renseignement de Kyiv seraient fournis par la 🇫🇷.
Quels moyens déploie Paris ? L’armée 🇺🇦 s’est-elle affranchie du renseignement 🇺🇸 ?

🎂 Aujourd’hui, c’est l’#anniversaire du président ukrainien, Volodymyr Zelensky - 48 ans!
@ZelenskyyUa
De comédien à chef de guerre, il est le symbole mondial de courage et le visage de la résistance.
L’un des présidents les plus respectés de la planète.
Un titan portant sur ses épaules le destin de son pays et bien au-delà.
Adulé par les amis de la liberté.
Haï par les ennemis de la démocratie.
Je lui souhaite longue vie, force, et la victoire la plus rapide possible de notre Ukraine contre l’agression des barbares russes
Et vous ?
Que souhaiteriez-vous aujourd’hui au président de l’Ukraine ?
