I honestly kind of liked that DR didn't treat this as anything serious when the story first broke. Since it's the same shit that he normally says, only this time it's written in whatever that Microsoft product that allows you to make flyers is called, it doesn't feel newsworthy to me. Also big fan of his "Stand with Israel because no one else in this country will do it" that he constantly uploads to his social media, while our fascist-lite SocDem is using the opening speech of the parliament to commemorate the real victims of the last year, which are the 200 danish jews that somehow all of our politics have to revolve around.

Wasn't she also one of the biggest Iraq War boosters? I remember her name floating around on the /r/Sino subreddit as one of the biggest warmongers at the NYT, which seems like a hell of a high bar to clear

Is he the guy who is wrong about literally everything he says? I remember one of the millitary analysts kept going on the news and proclaiming that every weapon to the Ukrainians was a gamechanger that would surely turn the tide of the war, and then when the AFU didn't magically become better by getting 12 new tanks, he just went on to talk about the need for further donations.

My dreamjob is now to become the fucking "defense correspondant" for Danish Government Media. That motherfucker has been wrong about EVERYTHING and somehow I'm still supposed to believe that he knows what he is talking about, as if he shouldn't have been thrown out on the street the milli-second it became clear to him that the Storm Shadow missiles, the HIMARS systems, the F-16s, the Leopards and every other fucking WunderWaffen weren't going to cause the Russian state to collapse like the Soviet Union in the 90s.

Tbf given that the Danish Navy doesn't have guns that work, I'm not sure that more bodies on the ships are going to help anyone. Also, people don't want to join because the government is constantly warning about a war with Russia, who would destroy us in less time than it took the Germans in 1940.

The only way Biden gets tanked by his actions abroad is if he is perceived as "having lost" the war in question. Hogs fucking hate it when the savages don't just die quietly, and the election is only 10 months away bear-despair , so that probably makes it unlikely that Yemen can tire the Great Satan and Slightly smaller Satan out before the election. Though I guess the firing upon shipping lanes will continue to be a drain on the economy, but those costs can always be passed on to the consumers, and nobody gives a shit about those.

Somehow beheading a person is considered barbaric, but dropping a 2000 pound bomb on top of them so that their remains are scattered to the winds is "humane" and "not-involved"

On one hand, if OPEC did another oil crisis, there would definitely be a reaction from the West as it would cause a massive economic crisis, which would honestly either provoke war or force the SocDems to invest in infrastructure, but on the other hand, I live in the imperial core and am visibly minority, which I suspect would get me lynched if the Arab states decided to do something funny.

Misread that as Catholic Evil and somehow thought that sounded fine. It did give me a new idea for my next DnD game though.

Is that the tank that is so heavy that it has to function as a submarine if Ukraine is ever going to cross a body of water wider than a stream?
