Danke an den Berliner @tagesspiegel, dass er uns am #RussischesHaus besucht hat und uns zu Wort hat kommen lassen.
Die Hauptbotschaft ist:
Warum wurde der Staatsvertrag zu dieser russischen Operationsbasis mitten in unserer Hauptstadt noch nicht gekündigt?
Uns bleibt nur noch Zeit bis zum 6. Dez. diesen Jahres!
Herr @bundeskanzler Merz - Cojones!!!
BREAKING: 🇷🇴 Romania has shot down a drone that entered its airspace from Moldova, near Galați.
Romania’s Defence Ministry detected the aerial target at 04:44, approximately 24 km north of Galați. A Spanish F-18 operating from Mihail Kogălniceanu Air Base established radar contact and received authorization to engage.
The drone was shot down at 05:01. A possible impact area for the wreckage was identified between Băleni and Cudalbi, in an unpopulated area of Galați County.
According to Defence Minister Radu Miruță, the drone had flown along the Chilia branch of the Danube, crossed from Ukraine into Moldova, and then entered Romanian airspace.
The air alert for Galați ended at 05:20.
This is another direct airspace incident involving Romania after a series of drone incursions and debris discoveries across the country in recent days.
Exciting times are coming for Russia.
"Russia has found itself in such a unique situation that classic economic models may not even apply..."
The impending economic catastrophe "could be the beginning of a scenario and a model that nobody in the world has ever considered."
☕️ Ladies and gentlemen, it's another not-so-good morning in Russia! One of the country's largest oil refineries is on fire
A massive blaze at the Slavneft-YANOS refinery can be seen from all parts of Yaroslavl.
Three huge columns of smoke are rising into the sky.
The refinery processes around 15 million tonnes of crude oil per year and is among the five largest oil refineries in Russia. Since the beginning of 2026, the facility has caught fire at least six times.
Rick Wilson: Russia is a third-world country with first-world propaganda and intelligence system. It used to have second-world energy system, but now, with Ukraine knocking it apart, it’s a fourth-world one. They’re going to freeze in the dark this winter, and I’m here for that.
Real talk. I of course want to see the U.S. military unleashed on the Islamic Regime in Iran to add to the economic force already being applied. The goals are to compel the regime to capitulate on nuclear weapons development, full freedom of navigation in the Strait of Hormuz, and decouple its terror proxy armies from Iranian national policy.
Operation Epic Fury, Operation Rising Lion, and Operation Economic Fury were working. They got called paused after the new primary decision makers in Iran (the original ones are dead) sent the message that they had been compelled. That is not defeat. That is pressure producing results.
I also have the unbiased common sense to know there is an entire world of considerations, information, plans that I and every commentator do not know.
I am sickened by the back seat drivers who have little (can't stand leakers) to zero access to the real information the U.S. administration is using to make decisions. The voices saying “Iran is now a superpower,” “The U.S. has been defeated,” “The U.S. has no option but to acknowledge defeat.” Literally cheering for a U.S. defeat days, weeks, and a few months into an operation.
Of course there is a massive list of real factors the U.S. has to weigh: what the regime is saying, what allies in the region are communicating, gas prices, global markets, protection of U.S. bases, protection of allies, U.S. stockpiles, time, risk, and yes politics.
But give me a break on the defeatism. The U.S. has a TON of options. Maintaining the blockade and continuing to economically strangle the regime. Waiting until after mid-term elections. A partial to full scale return to military operations against many legitimate military targets that have not been targeted yet.
The war is a limited war until it isn’t. It is a contest of will until it isn’t. It is ongoing until it isn’t.
Yes I believe nuclear non-proliferation and freedom of navigation are worth fighting for. And yes, American deterrence is being tested.

"If we will give a nice, strong, solid military counterpunch, and we are ready for it – this will lead to collapse of the Russian military and political authorities.
We are doomed to Victory. It cannot be otherwise, and there can be no talk of any compromises or concessions."
Wow, I admire their determination🫡😉.
