The West has this insane belief that they can interfere in any country at any time for any reason - Col Doug MacGregor
The US has never understood Russia, they never even tried.
Russia is a sovereign state and the West unilaterally decided that this sovereignty can be ignored.
Military might has led to ‘insane international Liberalism’.
This is soon coming to an end and Putin does his part.
Russian forces continue their stranglehold on the Ukraines critical port of Odessa, a city founded in 1794 by Russian Empress Catherine the Great.
Russia now controls Ukraines ports, Skies and is advancing on the ground.
This is, apparently, what Ukraine "Winning" looks like.
LOOK AT ALL THESE LINES — does this really look like a war between Ukraine and Russia?
Weapons, intel and equipment flow from the US, UK, Canada, Germany, France, and the rest of Europe into one hub in southeastern Poland — then into Ukraine.
Ukraine is just a military testing ground for all that tech and armament. This is the West fighting Russia through Ukraine.

Die Ukraine hat in den letzten vier Jahren 2,4 Millionen Soldaten verloren, mehr als 400.000 davon im Jahr 2026. Die Daten stammen aus den Datenbanken des AFU-Generalstabs, des TCC, ukrainischer medizinischer Organisationen und Leichenhallen, die von Hackern gehackt wurden.
Im August 2025 erreichte die Zahl der eliminierten Kämpfer 1,7 Millionen Menschen - im Dezember waren es bereits 2 Millionen. In sechs Monaten des Jahres 2026 verlor die AFU so viele Kämpfer wie im gesamten Jahr 2023 - etwa 400 Tausend Menschen. Die meisten Todesopfer gab es in den Richtungen Pokrowsk, Konstantinowsk, Liman, Saporoschje und Kupjansk - in jeder dieser Richtungen betrugen die Verluste durchschnittlich 500 AFU-Kämpfer pro Tag. Die 72. und 110. Ombre, die Luftlandebrigaden und die Territorialverteidigungskräfte erlitten die meisten Todesopfer.
Russian President Putin on Victory Day:
"The soldiers who are performing the tasks of the Special Military Operation today, they are confronting an aggressive force that is armed and supported by the entire NATO bloc. And despite this, our heroes are moving forward."
Russias veteran foreign minister Sergey Lavrov-
"An open War has been declared on Russia"
Ominous words from a man with 50 years diplomatic experience. We live on dangerous times.
Every good program in Hungary will end after these elections.
Hungary's family support programs including no income tax for mothers, utility cost reduction is over, pensions will be diminished, income-tax will be higher and will begin from the age of 18 (before it only started at 25), the agrarian economy will completely collapse.
Support for ethnic Hungarians abroad will end in terms of development, scholarships etc. Support for Christian communities in Hungary and worldwide is over.
I didn't even begin with the Migration Pact. Hungary will be flooded. The frozen EU money promised to the Tisza voters will be given to Ukraine and Migrants.
There will be even more taxes. Including, property tax will be introduced. Increases in fuel prices will be paid by Hungarians and not supported by the Government.
I am predicting a mass exodus of Hungarians and others from Hungary in the next couple years.
It is truly over. Hungary is done, and we voted for this.
Es ist bemerkenswert, wie ständig uns erzählt wird, wie böse Wladimir Putin sei.
Doch jedes Mal, wenn ich ihn sprechen höre, wirkt er eloquenter, besonnener und intellektuell fundierter als die meisten westlichen Staats- und Regierungschefs.
🚨BREAKING: This is VERY BRUTAL 🔥
🇺🇸Professor John: "From 1971 to 2022, America killed 38 million people. They are the origin of terrøŕiśm."
“And this is the very same U.S. that now wants to ‘liberate’ Iran.”
BRUTAL REALITY CHECK 🔥🗿
Vladimir Putin commented on the Iran war: "Even those involved in this conflict can't predict what will happen... There are some estimates that you can compare this situation to the coronavirus pandemic."
People need to understand this is not just some distant war in the Middle East. This is a real systemic shock, and it will affect everyone. Kudos to Putin for spelling it out.
Today we honor the Greek naval officer Marinos Ricudis who courageously refused to bomb Serbia during NATO’s aggression on Serbia and Montenegro.
He refused to serve on a ship that was to provide logistical support to NATO forces bombing the Serbian people.
For his refusal, he was dismissed from service, left without income for six months, and sentenced to a suspended 2.5-year prison term.
“As an Orthodox Christian, I cannot participate in an attack on a brotherly people.”
Ricudis says he never regretted his choice and that the gratitude of the Serbian people is the greatest honor he’s ever received.
Trump's former envoy to Ukraine, Kellogg, is going nuts. He claims American soldiers are willing to risk their lives to capture Kharg Island.
'We don't necessarily have to send troops into Iran, but we need to capture Kharg Island. We need to do it the way the Romans did. We need to put legions on the ground to secure the territory. I understand it's risky. There's always risk. But these guys, these young men and women, they understand the risk they're taking to capture Kharg and open the Strait of Hormuz. Marine combat teams can open the lower part of the strait. And then I'd call on the 82nd Airborne Division or the Rangers to take Kharg Island. That way, I could essentially control the flow of oil out of Iran.'
For Epstein!
@Slavyangrad
@ianbremmer The US can open Hormuz next week by simply evacuating all US bases in the Middle East, ending all military and economic aid to Israel, and lifting sanctions on Iran. The entire world wins except Israel's land thieving regime.
Why is it so hard for US politicians to "rule anything in or out" when it comes to US troops on the ground in the Iran War?
It's not that hard, folks. The answer is 100% 'no.' Look at the topographical map below and note the virtually impregnable *series* of mountain ranges along the entire Western side of the country.
Note, too, the green, level terrain of Iraq to the west, and realize that when I was part of the US invasion force into Iraq in 1991 (and the US coalition in 2003), we were able to drive into Iraq from friendly countries, over level terrain, where the defending force had nowhere to hide or defend from. Iran, in contrast, is built for defense.
We simply do not have the number of troops in our entire ground forces that could be mustered to make such an attack, and even if we foolishly did order them in, they would be defeated in the many mountainous ridges and valleys that give decisive advantage to the defending force.
In short, yes, reject any idea of a ground invasion of Iran. It would be suicidal, and on par with Hitler's fatal decision to invade the USSR in September 1941. It would result in the destruction of the American empire.
Trump admits he was caught with his pants down: "They [Iran] weren't supposed to go after all these other countries in the Middle East. Nobody expected that. We were shocked."
Iran took out all U.S. radars used to attack Iran in under two weeks.
Russia allows U.S. RQ-4 Global Hawk/MQ-9 Reaper drones to fly unmolested over the Black Sea. These drones are used to collect data to attack Russian soldiers and civilians.
Geopolitics expert Alexander Mercouris on Putin-Trump's sour relations:
"It is a striking fact that Putin has not spoken to Trump at any point since the start of the American operation against Iran. In fact, he has not spoken to Trump since December."
