I wake up and the news of the day is a massive Russian strike across Ukraine with 50-70 missiles and drones including a strike on the visas office of the German Embassy. Many of the strikes were launched from Belarus who has handed Ukraine's ambassador a note of protest.
Looks like Belarus is finally going to be going all in and opening a new front against Ukraine in order to take pressure off of Putin's flaling failings in the south and east of Ukraine. How long the Belarussian army can sustain high intensity operations on foreign soil during
fall and winter remains to be seen. Most experts I have seen don't rate the Belarussian army very high: poor leadership, old equipment, bad morale and no belief in the cause. The invasions appears to have already miscarried at least once this spring. Lukashenko has now had 7
months for the KGB to purge the army of anyone with two braincells capable of thinking for themselves. sadly a good army or a bad army Ukrainians are going to die that would have otherwise lived. Ditto a bunch of Belarussians. The only thing the good/bad army determines is the
ratio of dead Ukrainians to dead Belarussians. Another front won't break Ukraine, not now, not after being visited with so much horror. The unending terror strikes on everything from thermal plants like TEC-5 to theaters used as shelters like Mariupol along with the bodies in
mass graves, now with video evidence from a Russian phone show the Ukrainians an imposed peace from Russian will only speed up the dying. It is literally victory or death for them. We must support Ukraine and help them liberate their lands from a genocidal tyrant.
Thats what I expect from @JohnBoozman, @SenTomCotton and @RepFrenchHill more support now. Things are goign to unfold fast in the coming days if Belarus jumps in. It might be hard to stay up to date but a great resource is @MriyaReport which runs 24/7/365. The space helps support
@MriyaAid and other worthwhile charities. Good information means you can also help push back on the Russian dis-info efforts. Join #NAFO and help us secure the information spaces for democracy and freedom. Plus your donations help support the @georgian_legion in their fight to
put an end to Putin's fascist imperialism. Speaking of dis-info a bit of a personal note. I have voted Libertarian for decades. Too many in the Dems and GOP were absolute nutters married to extremist positions. Well that association ended yesterday given that the LP appears to be
all in on drinking the vodka after Putin biologically recycles its in his own bowels. I won't be part of it. Plus I was already going to vote for @RepFrenchHill and @JohnBoozman next month anyway. My vote is for Ukraine its just now I guess I am officially a partyless independent
voter. Anyway, until Ukraine wins on Ukraine's terms, Slava Ukraini! #russiaisaterrorisstate #GenocideOfUkrainians #Belarus @mfa_russia <--- losing so bad you are begging for help from the Potash King and his army of dontwannabees.

I thought maybe it was just me, but I woke up to at least two other people posting about interactions with Indians, I guess Russia has mobilized its Indian trolls to help in the info battle over Ukraine. I freely admit that #NAFO has not really engaged there, after all its in our
name NORTH ATLANTIC FELLAS ORGANIZATION so the focus has not really been in the INDIAN OCEAN but since expansion is non-negotiable.... Indian support for Russia is non-sensical from an anti-imperialism perspective. Now if they want to support Russia because they too believe in
religious tinged nationalism, mass poverty outside of the elite core of a couple of urban areas, ultra rich oligarchs, corruption and eventual vassaldom to China that is an honest stance and I can respect that. But Russia is an imperial state so ergo support for Russia is support

Now into a second day of Russian strikes designed to cripple Ukraine's civilian population heading into winter. This is not revenge for the Kerch Strait bridge, this is state sponsored terrorism by a dictator who has failed to fill the shoes of his heroes like Hitler and Peter
The Great. He has now moved from Ukraine will be part of the Russian Empire again to if I can't have it no one can. He seeks to de-energize the entire country and also make the countries soviet era district heating system using centralized thermal plants inoperable. Its a slow
attempted murder attempt to kill as many people and depopulate a city much as a nuke would but without the mushroom clouds and fall out... Well there will be fall out he is trying to force Ukraine to move enmass. We are now watching one of the most important races in human

I freely admit I am not an engineer, however, as a truck driver I know something about roads and pot holes that I feel is germane to the conversation about the Kerch Strait bridge. What we know is that half the road way was dropped and one of the rail lines was roasted. Thats the
That is the absolute best case scenario. That would mean a loss of 50% each of max road and rail traffic at a minimum since the remaining capacity now has to be divided to continue two way traffic. Now if the peak capacity thats left still exceeds the needs of the Russian army
then the impact on combat operations won't matter much for now. If the new peak is less than what the army requires well then in plain English: that's a problem. However much capacity is left however is sitting on a timer. The roadway will be the easiest to repair because the

So, #Ukraine went all in for Putin's birthday celebration. I mean they pulled out all the stops. First there was the giant barbeque at Ilovaisk... Potentially hundreds were served.

But the unwrapping through once the dance floor was cleared...

So last night
@POTUS
revealed what those of us who have been paying attention already knew. The world is closer to #Armageddon than at any time since the Cuban Missile Crisis. cbsnews.com/news/biden-arm…
why did he say it, was it just an old man's flub to be walked back like the Taiwan comments (could it be walked back), or was it deliberate and if so, who was the audience. I think some context is needed.
First, Russia has been making nuclear threats for months and has already engaged in nuclear terrorism at least 2 nuclear sites in #Ukraine: Zaporizhya and Chernobyl and recently his puppets have begun openly discussing the use of strategic nuclear weapons in response to

Do people have the right to secede from the nation they belong too without there being some extreme factors in play like say a genocide? After all East Timor, Eritrea and Kosovo recently separated (among others). Who should get a vote in such referendums?
Another example is the Scottish referendum held just before Brexit. How often do separatist minded desires get a vote? One and done, generationally, yearly? Then there was the dissolution of the USSR and a US court case from the immediate post civil war era where secession
required the will of all the citizens of the state to be split to enact such a split. I am sure there are other examples as well but I am going to dig into the cases listed above to explore the idea of secession.
