Bornholm is very close to Russia where I live just a little Baltic Sea between Denmark and Kaliningrad Russia a big militarist territory of Russia, they are notorious bullies who constantly violate our sovereignty with military aircraft’s and Bornholm was occupied by USSR after WW2 for a long period, the Russian German natural gas pipelines Northstream 1 and 2 only approved marginally in our parliament after the German clowns lobbied hard against their own interests and getting addicted to Russian gas. We are seriously tired of Russian behavior and is happy to use our enormous resources to help Ukraine win and no new pipelines will ever be built no matter what compromised Germans are lobbying for, Russia is a pariah state

Good grief. Back in the 1980's Margaret Thatcher said that Britain does not need to make weapons, we can buy them all from the USA. We, who worked in defence industries, all screamed "No, we need independence in defence and traceability of parts". Needless to say all those old big name British defence companies I worked for have not existed for a long time. Now, 30 years later people start to find out this is important.

When I hear analysts complaining that Ukraine took too much risk in Kursk and that it is a strategic mistake, I wonder what these analysts are smoking. Because to me it seems that the invasion of Kursk is a textbook example of a low risk, high reward strategy. It must be good stuff, because it sure detaches one from reality. Why is it low-risk? Well, the Ukrainians have not created huge salients where they can easily be surrounded and destroyed. They can always make a fighting withdrawal. They could do that on day one, they can do that today. So, where's the risk? The fear for nukes is highly irrational, because Putin is a coward and a nihilist. That is why he will not use nukes. Because he has no cause to die for and because he fears death over all else. All his behaviour points to this. The rewards are plentiful. - it makes Putin and the Russian army look weak. The Russian army has _still_ not been able to push the Ukrainians back significantly. - it forces them to bomb their own towns and villages. Every bomb that falls in Kursk, does not fall on Ukraine. - there are now thousands of refugees from Kursk oblast dispersing over the country telling people that the Russian army did nothing to defend their homes, that Putin promised them a measly $100 compensation that hasn't even been paid and that their relatives report that life under Ukrainian occupation is better than under Russian government. - if the Russian army is serious on pushing the Ukrainians out, they will have to divert very significant forces from the front in Ukraine to the front in Russia. Until now they tried to do it with a bit from here and a bit from there and some conscripts and it doesn't work. If they want to take back Kursk they will have to send significantly more troops and material and those are getting scarcer. - even if they manage to push the Ukrainians out, they will still have to take defence of the border serioiusly. The border is no longer protected by red line defence. They will have to station _way_ more serious combat units all along the border, or the Ukrainians will simply reinvade wherever the Russians look weak. These troops can not be in Ukraine, where they are needed. - the Ukraininans have made thousands of prisoners that can be exchanged. There have been quite a few big exchanges lately. - it is a new black hole where Russian soldiers and material go in and never come out. - sending more and more soldiers to sit in the trenches before Pokrovsk and eat glide bombs plays straight into the Russian book. This might have been different if the Biden administration had grown some cojones and enabled Ukraine to destroy the Russian aircraft and airfields, but they didnt't, so it is not different. These Russian aircraft need to be destroyed, glide bombs are by far their most effective weapon at the moment. - it hits the Russians where they are weak, not where they are strong. That is right out of Sun Tzu. But these analysts of course know better. According to them it is a better idea to drive right into minefields and prepared defences without air support. These guys sound like classmates of Gerasimov. So, I think the Kursk invasion is a huge success. It was already a big success at day one and it is a much bigger success now. No matter what happens next.

"It makes Putin and the Russian army look weak." Making your opponent "look weak" is just about the most wishy-washy appearance over substance justification of a military operation that you can make. Hamas made the Israeli army look weak on October 7. Did not stop them turning Gaza into a wasteland. There are now thousands of refugees ... report that life under Ukrainian occupation is better than under Russian government." Facts very much not in evidence. More wish fulfilment than anything else. And I doubt that the Ukrainians would hesitate to play that propaganda card if it could actually be sustained. Seems to me that very civilians remain in occupied Kursk and those that do are unlikely to be singing the praises of their occupiers, especially given the propaganda own goal the Ukrainians made in allowing so many of their troops to prance around practicing World War II German cosplay. That's the gist of what little reporting I have seem come out of occupied Kursk suggests anyway. "They will have to station way more serious combat units all along the border, or the Ukrainians will simply reinvade wherever the Russians look weak." That's a two-way street. If the Russians station more units on the border, Ukraine has to respond in kind or its they who'll leave themselves open to invasion. "Sending more and more soldiers to sit in the trenches before Pokrovsk and eat glide bombs plays straight into the Russian book." And sending them into tiny rural villages that don't have any fortifications is better ? I guarantee that a soldier sitting in a reinforced-concrete bunker in Pokrovsk has a better chance of surviving against Russian firepower than one sitting in the basement of a wooden dacha in a single-street rural village in Kursk.

The risk wasn't a tactical risk on the ground, but a strategic one. Russia could have used it as a justification for mobilisation and, if he had spun it right, he might have succeeded in at least partial mobilisation without angering his people too much (he could argue legitimately that Russia itself is threatened, which is what he's been claiming from the start but without any credibility, now it is real). It could also have caused Ukraine's Western allies to reduce their support. In fact, neither of those risks transpired. Maybe that was good judgement by Ukraine or maybe they got lucky. I'm not going to second guess them. They made a bold decision and it paid off. Good for them!

It was a good calculated risk. The people of Russia are still not politicized. They have been discouraged to be that way for years. Also, now the Russian Propaganda is kind of backfiring. If you tell the populace there is nothing going on and everything is under control, and suddenly you get invaded by the supposed enemy, that's a hard sell. The result is that they flee and ask Putin to fix the problem. But they won't be part of it.

There is a vitally important thing which a lot of European commentators are not understanding about Donald Trump's position on Ukraine. And a lot of American commentators for that matter are "sanewashing" him and won't say it outright. Donald Trump absolutely is motivated by personal revenge and blames Zelenskyy's refusal of his extortion attempt (and the fact that it became public) for his electoral loss in 2020. It is important to him that Ukraine should be destroyed, in order to humiliate Zelenskyy.

@@kabzaify In many ways, Denmark and the other Nordic countries were at the forefront of the international Anti-Apartheid movement. The Danish Anti-Apartheid Movement fought for 3 decades against Apartheid. It helped get the sanctions off the ground, set up support NGO's and scholarships, helped build the labour movement in SA, played a leading role in international criticism and lobbied the Norwegian government into providing massive financial support. The ANC was labelled a terrorist organisation by CIA and it's very much thanks to Nordic diplomatic efforts that that got flipped. I can go on but if you want to know more, you could try some search terms like Danish contribution to the anti-apartheid struggle. Of course, the movement in the UK and the US was also pivotal but we tend to know more about it because of language familiarity. Many South Africans emphasise the role of the USSR because its military contributions but I don't think it comes close financially or strategically.

Exactly. US spent aprox 820 billion dollars on defence in 2023 ( 876 Billion in 2022) and budgetting 842 billion for 2024. So far since Feb 2022 and until now (2.5yr period) US has sent aprox 106 Billion dollars in direct aid to Ukraine and 69 Billion has been spent within US itself paying for American factories and workers to produce the various weapons that are either shipped to Ukraine or that replenish the U.S. weapons stocks the Pentagon has drawn on during the war. Remember a lot of the funds are on a lend lease program to be paid back with interest.

Fortunately at the company level, we adapted, endured, and repurposed. And we’re really well trained. My platoon stole anything not nailed down, operated two bars, and looked a lot like McHales Navy or Seargeant Bilko. But did not get in the way of doing the job.

15:50 there's another aspect. The overbuilding of the military industrial complex of the Russians, if the West is at the same time willing to meet up with demand around the world, the only attractiveness that Russia will have on the international weapon sales scene, is that they're not the west. If the West plays their cards right, they will have sufficient production not only in the West but in countries that are not considered the West but are definitely west leaning. Therefore making sure Russia does not capitalize after the war on all these wartime war economy investments

The problems with global supply chains for (parts of) military equipment remind me so much of the pandemic and PPE. We are so used to global imports and exports working just fine that we never prepared for scaling up PPE production quickly and efficiently at home. It's a side-effect of profit-maximization in capitalist global systems. These interdependencies were SUPPOSED to prevent large scale conflicts (Germany in particular thought so about their investments in Putin's Russia) but we've seen now that we need redundancies in all things.

41:11 I would caution the belief that Putin's analysis of Harris is like what we would perceive. He has already demonstrated what he actually thinks about women leaders, and specifically about Harris. He made an incredible speech in which he insulted her and disparaged her in the most Russian way possible. It wasn't just about the laugh, or the smile, it was the context in which he used it, and did so about a woman. These were literally dog whistles that were being used in that speech, which included racist ones but as well as misogynist and a purely Russian interpretation of somebody who smiles to a stranger. Putin does not have an accurate read of Harris, and it is obvious by the way he disparaged her and insulted her on state TV

The problem I see with building up the Ukrainian defense industry is that defense plants in Ukraine are targets whereas, unless Russia wants full war with NATO, those in Denmark would not be. And Denmark, in order to do its part as a NATO member, needs a capacity to produce weapons.

Short cuts in the small things slapped together to be visually compliant. Smoke and mirrors Potemkin Village model scaled to industrial output. Fresh top coat of paint, but absent solid primer base. Engine fittings jury rigged enough to get tanks to train/road haulers, etc. Hundreds of rushed parts slightly out of spec but shipped at target quantity kicks the can down the road.
