@amirtibon@juliaioffe Has an American we should not be. After the way Israel has been behaved for years now committing genocide, etc. I don’t see why we should be giving one nickel to Israel anymore.
The rules-based international order is facing its most critical test since 1945. For too long, the West has been trapped in a state of dangerous complacency, setting self-imposed red lines out of fear of escalation. We must realize that Putin treats our self-restriction not as an invitation to de-escalate, but as a red carpet to exploit. While Russia struggles to achieve decisive victories on the conventional battlefield, it is successfully shifting the conflict to the cognitive and hybrid domains. The recent destruction of Ukraine's cultural heritage, combined with the thousands of coordinated drone incidents, sabotage acts against critical infrastructure, and arson attacks on EU soil, demonstrates that Europe is already firmly in the crosshairs of Moscow's imperial ambition. Germany is a primary target of this campaign, not as a frontline state, but as the central logistical hub for Euro-Atlantic defense.
We must abandon the romantic, naive belief that a revanchist power will negotiate in good faith without a clear demonstration of strength. True peace, freedom, and self-determination cannot be achieved by forcing Ukraine to cede territory or by accepting a artificial buffer zone. Ukraine's resistance makes Europe safer, and its ultimate integration into the Euro-Atlantic security architecture is a geopolitical necessity for a resilient Europe. To deter the broader axis of authoritarian regimes—including Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea—Europe and esp. Germany must urgently step up. This means implementing a modern mandatory service to rebuild civilian and military resilience, fostering independent capability in our defense industry, and maintaining unwavering strategic clarity. True stability requires predictability, reliability, and the courage to meet systemic threats with absolute resolve. FrontlineDailyPodcast with @amykelloggmilan

@atrupar Trump’s Iran policy: $25B war cost + $20–$24B frozen assets = $45–$49B total. Far more than Obama’s $1.7B. Gas is 52% higher than pre-war. $45–$49B wasted on an unnecessary war while Iran gets billions back—not a feat, a costly failure.
@atrupar They’re laughing at you, you fat fuck. You’re a stupid gullible, dumb motherfucker who fell for it all because of your brittle little ego. Go take a dirt nap.
@TheRickWilson@BlokeQuebecois Obama’s deal released $50–55B Iran’s frozen assets after strict conditions. Trump’s 2026 framework gives Iran access to over $100B upfront with no nuclear limits or verification in place. Obama made them earn relief; Trump gives roughly double the money before restrictions exist
@joni_askola Trump can’t stop it or change it. Or he can’t force Ukraine to do anything and I do believe Trump has figured this out now. He cannot bully Zelenskyy.
