Russians really are the thickest cunts I've ever met. Just cattle who can't help but be oppressed. In fact, that's what they live for, it's genetic.

Not all well on the Ukrainian side either.

Apparently fortifications that weren't even 30% ready were reported to have been completed by the higher ups.

Biggest fumble of the war for Ukraine since the summer counter attack, why wasn't this border properly defended?

Rumor has it Russian assault units are dying en masse now.

Nothing has changed in eastern front warfare since WWI.

Sustaining a ground assault over a large field of operations is difficult and the defenders are at a major advantage. 

The Germans solved this shit in WWII with their blitzkrieg tactics, but the defences have evolved which makes that sort of thing much more difficult again. 

The Americans solved this in Iraq twice by using overwhelming force and superior technology.

The Russians simply don't have either, so are simply reverting to their WWI tactics of throwing as many men into the meat grinder as possible to wear the Ukrainians down.

A win for Benji 

Quote:The Federal Court has issued a stinging rebuke of the Australian government claim that a court order was required to force Elon Musk’s social media site X to block a video of the April stabbing of a Sydney bishop globally.

Last month, the independent eSafety Commission persuaded the court to grant an emergency global take-down of the video of the stabbing of Bishop Mar Mari Emmanuel at Christ the Good Shepherd Church, which was live-streamed as part of a sermon.

But on Monday, Justice Geoffrey Kennett refused to continue the order.

In his reasons published on Tuesday, Justice Kennett ruled that a global ban would not be considered a “reasonable” step – required by Australian law – because it would likely “be ignored or disparaged in other countries”.

He found there were “powerful” issues with eSafety’s attempt to regulate the global internet. Lawyers for eSafety had argued a global ban was necessary on the 65 specified videos because Australians could circumvent X’s initial block that was limited to this country using simple technical tools.

Justice Kennett wrote that a global ban would clash with a concept called the comity of nations, a mutual recognition by nations of the laws and customs of others.

He said it “would be a clear case of a national law purporting to apply ‘persons or matters over which, according to the comity of nations, the jurisdiction properly belongs to some other sovereign or state’”.

“What X Corp is to be permitted to show to users in a particular country is something that the ‘comity of nations’ would ordinarily regard as the province of that country’s government.”

Such a stupid idea in the first place and an obvious overreach.

The other right wing parties finally reached an agreement with Wilders
  Rejoice



Quote:The "Hope, Courage and Pride" coalition platform presented today introduces strict measures on asylum seekers, scraps family reunification for refugees, and will reduce the number of non-EU students coming to the country.

"Deport people without a valid residence permit as much as possible, even forcibly," the agreement says.

The coalition will also strive to get a Dutch opt-out from the EU’s new Migration Pact and its mandatory migrant relocation quotas.

The protesting farmers will have many of their demands met.

The coalition will change the country’s stance on nuclear energy and will start work on building 4 new nuclear reactors.

Support for Ukraine will continue and a new law will oblige the government to meet the NATO requirement of spending at least 2% of GDP on the military.

The Netherlands will take new measures to support its Jewish community and will move the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem.

We're so fucking back and this summary doesn't even mention the lower taxes, higher top speeds and all the other goodies. Such as making Holocaust education mandatory for citizenship.
