U.S. Secretly Alerted Iran Ahead of Islamic State Terrorist Attack (WSJ Jan 2024)
I hope our duty to warn policy has some sort of provision for being blamed for the act after warning that removes the duty to warn in the future.

I suppose it was not ISIS, but Kremlin work at all. For ISIS, more logically would be to make terroristic attack as revenge for Gaza or something else, but not against country, withstanding with West - their main enemy. There was claims about "attack on Christian gathering", but who knows, how much Muslims, except Christians or atheists were killed in this attack
IS does not function as a monolithic group that way.

Tucker Carlson will soon note how incredibly efficient the press in Russia is compared to backwards America.

This is quite a shocking video and it was mentioned in that interview with Carlson It is unbelievable
Weren’t you given a warning about trolling? Dumb move by an ignorant Canadian politician. Had nothing to do with Zelensky or Trudeau directly.

I was surprised/shocked that such an experienced interviewer as TC seemed to be at sea and unable to structure his interview "professionally". He seemed all over the place, repetitive, and finally unable to conclude the interview with any memorable wrap up. It was left to poor old Putin to shoot the dying interview to put it out of its misery.
It was very interesting to hear Putin's perspective on how we got to where we are starting way back after after the fall of the USSR. But, imo much of the time Putin seemed rather "tricky" and "sly".
While clearly stating that the US empire is falling apart and the world is changing, Putin unintentionally made a good argument that USSR was like the Roman Empire and both were dissolved - and no one is saying that the Romans should get their empire back. But,TC didn't pick up on that at all.

He wasn’t there for a serious journalistic interview, which is why he was granted an interview where all other western journalists have been denied (despite trying).

I assure you that anyone employing the word “woke” in any serious context also has no idea.

Just saw a pic of the abandoned T-90M
In CM's language, it is:
Optics: X
CITV: X
Weapon control: X
Main Gun : X
the two bright flash in the video are the smoke grenades discharged from the launcher. So all the smoke grenades are gone too. And from the pic the smoke launchers seem to be taken a badly damages.
The 3D17 grenades are burning in the launchers then detonate inside them. That is not normal deployment for 3D17, which should be launched 50m up and away from tank before detonating.

Looks like the BTR backs into a ditch and gets stuck. Then it gets droned.
So Russia continues to put crappy drivers in its crappy vehicles.
I speak no Ukrainian, but I do understand "motha****a"
What is most interesting about this is there is a 1:30min response form initial spotting to strike by FPV drone that started on ground.

It's actually Bradley's shooting.
From 0:45, 4 bursts in rapid succession around the Bradley and trench position, followed by another shortly after. Looks larger than 30mm.

Dear eurofriends, do you perhaps have a recreational light aircraft you aren’t currently using on hand?
