There is a lot of talk about a Russian counteroffensive in Kursk. It’s worth remembering that right now it is actually in Zelensky’s interest to make it sound like a big deal, because that will validate his claim that the Kursk offensive is working to divert Russian resources from elsewhere.

Why is NATO not responding more forcefully to Russian provocations and hybrid attacks? That is my topic in this video.

Surely the U.S. will respond by allowing Ukraine to use ballistic missiles against Russia. Oh, not? Sending thoughts and prayers instead. https://mastodon.online/@SocraticEthics/113113699469800377

It's interesting how the Russian media is freaking out about the Telegram CEO being arrested in France. They openly acknowledge that the Russian military uses Telegram for encrypted communication, and that they don't have an alternative.
But why is it that they don't have an alternative? Why don't they just use Signal (like the Ukrainians)? I think the big question to those who think that Telegram is a secure platform is why it's the only encryption service that is accepted in Russia.

I know that YouTube now has speed issues in Russia but why has this been a recurring experience for me in Denmark in recent weeks? Is there a connection with spillover effects?

The Russian reaction to Ukraine's invasion of Kursk is somewhat misunderstood. They may be slow, but they are not paralyzed. We should expect them to escalate the war, but that will require the use of conscripts. They are progressing slowly to avoid domestic backlash.

Jeg er med i denne episode af Genstart til en samtale med Anna Ingrisch om Ukraines angreb i Kursk-regionen, og hvad det siger om krigens gang.

Does anyone with actual experience of naval command or planning of complex diving operations believe that Nord Stream was sabotaged by divers in a sailing yacht?

Krigens Døgn er ikke tilbage før i næste uge, hvilket jo er træls når nu Ukraine vælger at ændre hele krigen. Men jeg var i Deadline i går, hvor der var en rigtig god dækning af Kursk-offensiven.

Zelensky has now confirmed that F-16 is flying in #Ukraine. I think we should see this as an indication that Ukraine does not expect wild and spectacular consequences in the short term. Otherwise they would not announce the planes, but would have left the results to talk for themselves.

Jeg forstår ikke den forvirring om hvad vores beskyttelsesrum skal bruges til. Er det så svært for vores beredskabsplanlæggere at forestille sig at Danmark bliver udsat for luftangreb? Jeg synes man skal kigge til Ukraine og droppe den antagelse at hybridkrig er det værste vi kan opleve herhjemme.

@npub1fvv…yw2w Or mistaken assumption that in the end Russia would want to join the West. It seems to me that's what he is saying.

@npub12l3…qgjv Doesn’t that mean that the internet is a panopticon?

If you take on the responsibility of creating a public link shortener, you also have the obligation to keep it running forever. But of course, it’s Google.

It is the nature of military offensives that they eventually culminate, and that is a good moment for the adversary to launch a counteroffensive. At least according to Clausewitz.
So what should #Ukraine do if Russia's current offensive culminates within the coming months? Is it time to be bold and take the initiative, or should they rather be cautious and wait? That is my topic in this video.

It is a mistake to think that Russian war crimes are just a result of bad discipline or ruthlessness. In this video I discuss the strategic purpose with war crimes, and why they don't mind having cases at the International Criminal Court. In reality, the war crimes are a tool that Russia uses to challenge the idea of a rules-based world order.

@npub18qs…0s8s Great initiative. But frankly I think what journalists really want are quote posts.

@npub1zva…e2q5 Are we sure that there wasn't a significant group of people supportive of the idea of negotiations with Hitler in 1944? I wouldn't be shocked if that's the case.

Danish government broadcaster DR is closing their profiles on X because the tone is too toxic and they can’t moderate replies to their posts. Would be great to see them in the Fediverse, but that is probably too much to ask for at this point.

I am getting a lot of requests to comment on these videos from the Austrian army, so here's my quick take.
These videos demonstrate the best and the worst of military staff work in Western countries today. It is good and solid analysis backed up by facts and documentation. It is also way too slow. By the time they publish the videos, they have been overtaken by events and the conclusions describe the situation a month ago.

Denmark has joined the group of countries allowing Ukraine to strike inside Russia with donated weapons. This has been announced by the Danish prime minister.

Smartphones play an important role in modern warfare. In this video I have a conversation with Matthew Ford from the Swedish Defence University about the ways that soldiers use smartphones on the battlefield, and how we are seeing a new level of participatory warfare where civilians can be personally involved in the war fighting through their digital devices.

Russia is in a spiral of escalating repression, but it is nevertheless noteworthy when milestones are being passed. That happened with Prigozhin's plane crash and the arrest of Girkin. With these events, Putin has redefined the rules of how politics are done in Russia. That is my topic in this video.
