Quote:A reminder of how Russia blundered in the first 10 days of invasion. Ukraine would have long been defeated if only Putin were better at careful planning than at sloppy murdering. Trump is even worse at careful planning. The Iran War is proof of wishfully believing in inherent superiority.

Russian invasion of Ukraine: How Putin lost in 10 days
Russia launched its full-scale invasion of Ukraine on 24 February 2022. Since the initial attack, pain, destruction and bloodshed has been caused, with hundreds of thousands killed and millions more displaced from their homes. But it wasn’t supposed to be like this.
According to research by the think tank RUSI, when Vladimir Putin began his invasion, he expected to take control of Ukraine within 10 days. So what went wrong? Why did his plan fail? And how close did he come to succeeding?

US senators press Hegseth on delayed $400 million aid package for Ukraine

illion-aid-package-for-ukraine/
A bipartisan group of U.S. senators urged Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth in a May 23 letter to release a previously approved $400 million aid package for Ukraine that has been delayed for months.
The letter, spearheaded by Republican Sen. Chuck Grassley and Democratic Sen. Dick Durbin, comes after months of delays and mounting pressure from U.S. lawmakers for the Pentagon to release a broader $600 million security package, that includes $400 million in assistance to Ukraine and $200 million for Baltic states.
The $400 million package was approved by Congress in December 2025 but remained stalled at the Pentagon for months. Hegseth previously told the House Armed Services Committee on April 29 that the funding had been unlocked after bureaucratic hurdles were resolved. Despite promises by the Pentagon to deliver a spending plan to the Senate by May 15, senators say they have yet to receive details as to how the money will be disbursed.
"Any further delays — particularly as the Department reportedly plans troubling U.S. troops withdrawals from the region — risks our ability to adequately deter Russia," the letter read, according to the Associated Press (AP).
"Ukraine has persistently and bravely repelled a four-year Russian onslaught, but its military needs and deserves continued American support," the letter, co-signed by three Republican and three Democratic senators, continues.
Congress reauthorized the Ukraine Security Assistance Initiative (USAI) in December as part of a $900 billion defense spending bill, allocating $400 million annually for fiscal years 2026 and 2027 to sustain military support for Kyiv. The broader legislation also reinforced congressional oversight of Ukraine policy, including new reporting requirements if the Pentagon seeks to limit intelligence sharing or alter troop deployments in Europe.
Since his inauguration in January 2025, U.S. President Donald Trump has not allocated any new defense aid packages under the Presidential Drawdown Authority (PDA) — a tool frequently used by his predecessor, former President Joe Biden. Instead, the Trump administration has opted to sell weapons to Ukraine via NATO partners, using the Prioritized Ukraine Requirements List (PURL).
On May 21, the U.S. State Department approved a $108.1 million sale of equipment to Ukraine to support the HAWK air defense missile system.
The Kiel Institute for the World Economy reported on Feb. 11 that U.S. military aid to Ukraine fell by 99% in 2025, with the European Union now providing the majority of financial and humanitarian aid to Ukraine, while a small group of donor countries providing most of the military aid.

At the Scene of a War-Game: How the UK Would Respond if Russia Attacked the Baltics
While Russia has dismissed claims it has plans to invade NATO, the alliance is rushing to prepare for the nightmare scenario.

The main fear on NATO's eastern edge is that with the U.S. pulling back, Russia may be more willing to risk an invasion.

Quote:The Oreshnik is an advanced Russian intermediate-range, nuclear-capable ballistic missile designed to travel at hypersonic speeds exceeding Mach 10 (approx. 8,000 mph). It features Multiple Independently Targetable Re-entry Vehicles (MIRVs), making it notoriously difficult to intercept and capable of delivering strikes with little to no warning.

There is a connection between Russia's first nuke in 1949 and NATO's formation the same year.
The West was acutely aware of the Soviet Union’s pursuit of atomic technology. Allied intelligence had observed the Soviets actively increasing their mining and processing of uranium, with some British and American reports as early as 1948 hinting at the locations of Soviet plutonium production reactors.

Nobody cares about your irrational fear of Russia while you put on full display your desire for Muslims to invade America and Europe every day.
Your opinion, on any topic, doesn't matter and is not necessary.

President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said that, according to US and European partners, Russia is readying a strike against Ukraine using the Oreshnik system. Kyiv is currently verifying this information.
"There was a briefing from our intelligence: we received data, including from American and European partners, about Russians preparing a strike using Oreshnik. We are verifying this information," President Zelenskyy said.
He noted that Ukrainian intelligence sees signs of preparations for a combined strike on Ukraine, including on Kyiv, using various types of weapons. In this context, the president urged Ukrainians to respond to air raid alerts.
"This medium-range weapon may be part of such a strike. It is important to respond consciously to air raid alerts starting this evening. Russian madness is truly boundless, so please take care of your lives — use shelters," the head of state wrote.
Zelenskyy stressed that Ukraine draws the attention of partners in both the United States and Europe to the fact that the use of such weapons and the prolonging of the war are a global warning sign, including for other potential aggressors. Kyiv, therefore, expects a preventive response from the international community.
"If Russia is allowed to destroy lives on such a scale, then no agreement will stop other similar regimes based on hatred from carrying out aggression and strikes. We are counting on a response from the world, and that it will be preventive, not post factum. Pressure must be put on Moscow, so it does not expand the war," the Ukrainian leader emphasized.
He added that Ukraine is strengthening its air defense as much as possible and will respond justly to every Russian strike.
In conclusion, Zelenskyy said the war must end.
"We gave permission for a parade, but there is no permission for madness in Russia. This war must be ended — we need peace, not missiles for the satisfaction of one person's sick ambitions," he said.
