Going to resume regular streaming coming this Friday.
Topics to he covered include @SpaghettiKozak recent video and looking at Predictive History's Secret History 2. I fully expect the second will be suffering.

If we are talking commandants and Elon Musk I would point to over valuation and Commandment 9.
Jun 12
The Tenth Commandment has never been more relevant or necessary than today. Malicious envy is now treated as political and moral virtue.

The lack of self awarness required to talk about not valuing diplomacy when Donald Trump has, without provocation attacked Venezuela and Iran, and threatened Cuba and Denmark this year alone.
The issue with this discourse is that Westerners assume every culture inherently values diplomacy and peace. In the Middle East this is interpreted as a sign of weakness and invitation for more violence and attacks.

I think a more accurate assessment would be that drones were used to slam the door shut, but a lot of combined arms work had to be done to get to this point.
Pushing the Black Sea Fleet out of Crimea without a navy of their own was pretty fucking impressive though.
Had a chat with a friend in the military about Crimea. He thinks the public and most militaries do not yet fully grasp the enormous significance of what Ukraine did. Putting an entire region the size of Massachusetts under a blockade, without a navy or ground force, but drones.

Breaks out the world's smallest violin.
Netanyahu has decided to accept the Iranian deal. Security officials are despondent and see it as a disaster. Ynet brings some high level quotes from them:
1) A senior Israeli official said "Nobody is happy with this. We understand it is not good for us, and that it harms Israeli interests. What is troubling is that Israel cannot influence it. Its voice is not being heard."
2) The anger at Trump is palpable.: "Trump screwed us, we took the hit. We're no longer in the loop and can't really influence anything."
3) Israelis fear Iran will be economically revived: "They've blown money on the Iranians, who are getting everything they want. They'll build a missile corps, and we'll have to pour money into interceptors." Israel sees oil revenue flowing back into the exact capabilities the war was meant to degrade.
4) They don't believe a deal will adequately deal with the nuclear issue: "The real test of the deal is removing the uranium and destroying it. If that doesn't happen, the sense of a bad deal will turn into something more concrete."
5) They fear this will embolden Iran: "Iran has smelled that it can achieve things by force, and it will use that against its neighbors and against us."
6) The deepest worry is not military. It is perception. After months of direct fire, Iran is seen across the region as the side that took the pressure and did not fold: "the regional working assumption will be that it was signed under Iranian pressure and American capitulation, rather than the reverse."
Israel is concerned that Iran will be stronger, the US will be weaker and that the future for it will be bleak in the region. This war has been a disaster for Israel.

We have an amazing ability to field sports teams that win at sports we care nothing about.
IE our recent upset victory over Pakistan in Cricket back in 2024.

So when did the Yanks learn to play football?

Private individuals have named you a threat to Ukrainian security, it's not a government list.
Jun 12
I have been added to the kill list.
tass.ru/mezhdunarodnaya-pano…
Having a website with kill list, not even Taliban or Isis can do this.
I am an American citizen. My taxes buy Ukrainain weapons, and theyre threatening to kill me with them for a holiday visit to Russia.
Community note
Myrotvorets is operated by a Ukrainian non-governmental organization, not the government, and is not an official kill list despite its controversial content. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myrotvore… apnews.com/article/fact-c…

What were you? Three when Obama took office? Get back to us when your brain has fully formed.
Jun 10
We loathed Obama like you loathed Trump.
Except we loathed Obama because he loathed America.
You loathe Trump because you loathe America.

There is a great line in the movie Lincoln from Tommy Lee Jones's Stevens.
"This is the face of someone who fought for the good of the people without caring much any of them."
What people want is irrelevant in politics. The task of a leader is deliver what they need.

A new poll from the New York Times shows potential Democratic voters want the party to move to the right, are happy with where it is ideologically, and rate socialism highly. Huh?

The Friday Show is live, we talk about Graham Platner and the tyranny of low expectations, more Predictive History suffering, and some actual history from an actual historian.

This is a shocking read by the way. Although I would hasten to point out that if those commanders were capable of accepting and integrating criticism and adjusting the command climate wouldn't have deteriorated to such a point in the first place.
Jun 12
This piece by @rfobar for @TheWarHorseNews should be used as a case study for all military leaders on how they should not handle their command's 3rd suicide in less than 2 years.
Berating and calling your subordinates disloyal for pointing to your leadership weaknesses as a reason for the suicides is not the way to approach the situation.
I sincerely hope that @CMC_MarineCorps @USMCSgtMaj and @SECNAV really evaluate what happened here and hold these Marines to account for any violations.

The only viable option at this point is to relieve the Command team, and probably the Command Team's direct superiors for failure to act on in what was clearly a deteriorating situation.

PT standards being what they are I don't think any of those counted.

America’s @SECWAR CRUSHED 44 reps on the bench after a morning run with the troops yesterday in GTMO.

The fact that the prospect of section 224 of the NDAA is causing everyone who works in defense/intelligence to be all "fuck this" should tell you everything you need to about our "alliance" with Israel.

The attempt by pro Israel dipshits to paint the nation of Israel as if it was the Jewish Diaspora would be insulting if it wasn't so stupid.
It's the kind of historical and material dishonesty invoked when someone says "Democrats were the party of slavery."
“Netanyahu” today functions as a boogeyman. He is a hated figure on the world stage because he plays the role of the Jewish villain in the antizionist universe, not unlike the role Baron de Rothschild played in the antisemitic universe. He serves as a scapegoat and a figure of blame. References to “Netanyahu” are regularly invoked to justify and avoid discussion of the explosion of antizionist hate that followed October 7.
Rather than confronting the ideology itself, attention is displaced onto a single individual, as though the harassment of Jews, the normalization of antizionist hatred, and the global mobilization against Israel can all be explained by one man, which is irrational and nonsensical.

In fairness military PT uniforms have always been a bit of a fashion faux pas.
It's the shorts mostly.

1. The Holocaust was evil, as everyone knows
2. The Holocaust was NOT uniquely evil, as some claim
3. Throughout history there have been other comparable genocides, often carried out by Europeans against indigenous people
4. The genocide in Gaza is not the same as the Holocaust, obviously, but it is in the same moral category
5. The Nazis killed babies, children, women and men BECAUSE they were Jews. The Israelis kill babies, children, women and men BECAUSE they are Palestinian
6. Israel and its supporters weaponise and abuse the memory of the Holocaust, sometimes to close down argument and sometimes even to justify the genocide in Gaza

Easy, stupid, and inaccurate.
We shouldn't lie to children.
Because Israel is good, and Iran's Regime is evil. That was easy, wasn't it?
