So, I did a little tallying up and came to the conclusion that Poland is based as f**k and will be the military power in Europe if it's not already.
Let's open up a bit about that conclusion.
We all know that Poland is again rearming itself and modernizing its equipment. Which is good and needed. They are also arming Ukraine which is also wonderful news.

Let me present you with the shopping list.
From South Korea: 180 K2 tanks and 48 K9 Howitzers.
48 FA-50 fighting Eagle aircraft. K239 Chunmoo (MRL) systems.
From USA 200 HIMARS systems. 366 Abrams tanks.

The only meme that conveys the scale of this...
PS: Poland please join JEF with best regards Finland.
Next phase built in Poland by licence? tallying all up to nice round numbers.
1,000 K2 tanks, 672 K9 howitzers
PPS: Could you please leave something for us to buy also?

Thread to those companies that are still operating in Russia. 1/24
I write this because we now have a perfect example of a company that is operating inside Russia, a company that falls under the humanitarian clause exception of sanctions.
I am, of course, talking about @Bonduelle_Group. 2/24
There are three types of companies that still operate in Russia.
A company; that is operating against sanctions.
A company; that is operating in an area that is outside of sanctions.
A company; that is operating in an area that is under humanitarian clauses. 3/24

This is a Russian war, not just Putin's war.
This is Russia.
Update by the Chair of the Independent International Commission of Inquiry on Ukraine, at the 51st session of the Human Rights Council.
Based on the evidence gathered by the Commission, it has concluded that war crimes have been committed in Ukraine. As for violations against personal integrity, we were struck by the large number of executions in the areas that we visited.
Common elements of such crimes include the prior detention of the victims as well as visible signs of executions on bodies, such as hands tied behind backs, gunshot wounds to the head, and slit throats.

Give the gift of warmth. Buy a fireplace.
Omri Association and Salo-based companies in Finland; sheet metal manufacturer Stremet Oy and metal component manufacturer Metalli Piiroinen Oy have started a collaborative project, driven by Professor Juha Varis of LUT University, with his research team.
The aim of the project is to manufacture and ship as many stoves as possible to Ukraine. As a source of heat, the stoves are excellent because, unlike electricity and gas, there is no shortage of wood in Ukraine.

Poem for #NAFO
Arise, ye NAFO meme forces
For truth and justice in the land
Rise up to fight against the vatniks
On Twitter they take a stand.

With wits sharp as steel blades,
Their courage cannot be denied.
No opponent can withstand them, 1/5
When their memes are amplified. 2/5
From the halls of Congress to social media streams,
They rise up with might and zeal.
Disinformation will not prevail;
Their mission is clear: Truth shall be heard! 3/5

We all need something to lift our mood. Here are some AI generated songs/poems of Russian might. 1/4
Cope pyramids:
These Russian cope pyramids in Ukraine,
So vast and tall in their view,
Claim to be mighty as Drachenzähne,
But alas, they’re not true.

They can’t match the grandeur of those rocky spires,
That reach up into the sky, 2/6
Theirs is a shallow attempt at power and might;
A feeble try.

For theirs is a world of fake strength and show;
A facade of false pride.
It cannot compare to the real thing that exists
In places far and wide. 3/6

"#Russia's devil-mongering rhetoric sounds ridiculous to our ears only because we in the West are not the main target of the message, writes author Sofi Oksanen." @SofiOksanen
"Moscow's #Satanism rhetoric is therefore just a reformulation of the #denatsification of the early years into a more understandable form for audiences for whom the #Nazis do not symbolise absolute evil in the same way as in the West -
the fear of demons is more universally unifying than the horror inspired by the Nazis."
