Without bias, it's a yes from me. #Bundeswehr has officially adopted a #military strategy, citing an increasingly dangerous international situation. It defines the future focus and analyses how they can counter potential threats. #defence #conflict

As we begin to see Iran's response to Operation Epic Fury, just how far can the state project power with its current missile arsenal?

To answer that question, the CSIS Missile Defense Project mapped Iran's arsenal of ballistic and cruise missiles and their ranges.

Sounds comfy - “The club…built by cereal heiress Marjorie Merriweather Post in the 1920s, has natural protections…anchored to a coral reef by steel & concrete, making it hurricane resistant. Walls are made from thick stone from Italy.” #Iran #US

Masterclass in diplomatic gaslighting from the Americans in Munich today.

Too many European commentators behaving like battered wives. “Oh, he still loves us, he didn’t mean it, he won’t do it again, he just gets like that sometimes.”

Wake up.
