🐾 Waterbivak juni '26: Trainen in de hitte! ☀️
Vanwege de tropische temperaturen ging de wekker het weekend al om 5:00 uur 's ochtends. ⏰ We zijn enorm dankbaar voor de gastvrijheid zodat we hier perfect op water konden trainen in het zoeken naar vermiste personen #rescue #sar

There once was a time when making money of the misery of other people was seen as a negative ….. and not as something to be proud of. But times for this America have apparently changed.

Trump is alleen maar uit op geld en macht voor zich zelf. Olie prijs zakt, begin maar weer te vechten met Iran. Oh dat kost geld. Ah ik vraag tol.

[Hoodlum 🇺🇸 @NotHoodlum]

Marco Rubio: “That’s the law. It’s an international waterway. No country is allowed to charge tolls on an international waterway. That’s international law. That’s the way it is all over the world, and that’s the way we expect it will be here.”

Trump: “We’re charging tolls.”

Zaterdag 4 juli stond de RHWW met een informatiestand op SAR Katwijk. Onze reddingshonden gaven zowel ’s morgens als ’s middags een demo en lieten zien hoe zij worden ingezet bij zoekacties. Mooi om zoveel geïnteresseerde bezoekers te spreken en te laten zien wat ons werk inhoudt

Ik ben geen voetbal fan. Maar dit is op en top droevig. Dit is hoe dat sommige "leiders" werkelijk schijt hebben aan heel de wereld.

🚨 Zelensky blew a bombshell declaration

The myth of unlimited power.
For decades, the world lived under two opposite myths.
One was that Russia possessed an almost unstoppable military machine.

The other was that American power was virtually unlimited.

Reality has been cruel to myths.

Russia spent years projecting the image of the world’s second army.

But when it stepped forward in Ukraine, the world discovered that propaganda, corruption, and nuclear threats had concealed profound weaknesses.
Much of what looked like overwhelming power proved to be an illusion.

Now another uncomfortable reality is emerging.
President Zelensky revealed that the United States produces only about 60–65 PAC-3 anti-ballistic missiles per month. During the first day of the Middle East conflict, roughly two years’ worth of production was consumed in just 24 hours.

This does not mean America is weak.
It means that even the world’s strongest military-industrial power has limits.

Factories have limits.
Stockpiles have limits.
Supply chains have limits.

The lesson is not that the United States is declining, just as the lesson from Ukraine was never that Russia was powerless.

The lesson is that dependence itself is a vulnerability.

Europe cannot build its security on the assumption that America will always have enough missiles, factories, political will, or enough attention to fight multiple crises simultaneously.
As Zelensky put it:

“We need our own European independent strong system. And we will build it.”

Because sovereignty is not a speech.

It is the ability to defend yourself.

President of the Czech Republic proposes isolating Russia from the internet and satellites

Petr Pavel believes that such a step would weaken Moscow’s military capabilities without causing direct human casualties.

He stressed that Russia understands the language of force, and that changes in its behavior are possible through pressure rather than diplomatic procedures.

Among possible responses, Pavel mentioned cutting off internet access, disconnecting Russian banks from global financial systems, and shooting down drones or manned aircraft if they violate NATO airspace.

However, Russia’s authorities are already doing a good job of restricting internet access on their own.

Russia took another step regarding Transnistria – the Russians simplified access to citizenship for people originating from this region of Moldova. It is a very telling move. It means not only that Russia is looking for new soldiers in this way – because citizenship also entails military obligation – it is also Russia's way of staking a claim to Transnistria’s territory.

Those in Moscow often tell various interlocutors that supposedly only Donbas interests them. In reality, far more than Donbas is at stake. We must respond to this. All the more so as the presence of the Russian military contingent and special services in Transnistria also poses a challenge for us. We are interested in a stable and strong Moldova.

At a dinner in the White House, Charles III told Donald Trump: “I’ve noticed your changes to the East Wing. I must say, we Brits also, in our own modest way, tried to renovate the White House back in 1814.”
I didn’t know that myself, but looked it up — in 1814, the British burned the White House.
The king also gave Trump a bell from a decommissioned British submarine named “Trump”: “Ring it if you ever need us.”
And this one:
“You recently remarked, Mr. President, that if it weren’t for the United States, European countries would be speaking German. Allow me to say that if it weren’t for us, you would be speaking French.”
But the king didn’t just joke — he also reminded Trump about support for Ukraine and the role of NATO.
Overall, Charles devoted his entire speech to subtly trolling Trump — in a very British way, so refined that it went right over the heads of MAGA supporters. They even applauded him for it!
A British king and an American jester — that says it all.
I love British humor!

🇺🇦🇷🇺🤡 Lavrov : « Une guerre ouverte nous a été déclarée. Le régime de Kyiv est utilisé comme fer de lance. Sans les armes occidentales, le renseignement, les données satellites et la formation, il serait totalement impuissant. »

Toujours fascinant de voir la Russie envahir un pays souverain, puis se plaindre que ce pays reçoive des armes, du renseignement et du soutien pour ne pas disparaître.

En clair, Moscou voulait une Ukraine isolée, désarmée et abandonnée, pour pouvoir l’écraser tranquillement.
Mais quand un peuple agressé trouve des alliés pour se défendre, le Kremlin appelle soudain ça une “guerre de l’Occident”.

[Kate from Kharkiv @BohuslavskaKate]

KASPAROV: Trump keeps ignoring American public opinion to support Ukraine. It’s tragic that United States openly siding with Russia.

Look at United Nations. It’s shame beyond imagination. America never votes with Ukraine and European allies. It always sides with Russia, Belarus, Nicaragua, and North Korea.

America’s reputation has been damaged so badly that I’m not sure the next president alone will be able to recover it.

It will probably take a long time before people restore their confidence in America — country that was beacon of hope and garden of democracy in the days when I grew up as a kid on other side of Iron Curtain in Soviet Union.

❗️The 🇳🇱Dutch company Destinus is demonstrating launches of its new cruise missile, the Ruta Block 2.

It is claimed that the warhead weighs 250 kg with a range of 700+ km.

Ruta Block 1 has long been actively used by the 🇺🇦Ukrainian Armed Forces to destroy 🇷🇺Russian military targets.
