"putin is backed to the hilt by China..."
A truthful man.
Sir Richard Moore about the Estonian Foreign Intelligence Service: “I mean, gosh, pound-for-pound they probably knock us into a cocked hat.”

The dark past should not be forgotten. 🇪🇪
In the early hours of this day 85 years ago, thousands of families across Estonia were woken by a knock on the door, only to be torn from their homes and deported to Siberia by the Soviet regime.
During the June 1941 deportations, around 10,000 Estonians, together with tens of thousands of Latvians and Lithuanians, fell victim to Soviet terror.
As we honour the victims of these crimes, we must also remember that Russia is using many of the same methods in Ukraine today — deporting children, terrorising civilians, and attempting to erase Ukrainian identity.
History teaches us that crimes left unpunished lead to further aggression. It is time to hold Russia accountable.

"An utter tragedy and a scary indictment of our universities....."
The lives of these young Palestine Action activists have been ruined by university. They were radicalised to the point of madness on campus and now they’re facing years in jail. The whole thing is an utter tragedy and a scary indictment of our universities.

"It’s the Western students themselves who will destroy their own countries.........”
Jun 12
Hezbollah official: “We are currently investing in protests and demonstrations in Western countries, especially among college students.
We already have Muslim students agitating, but it’s the Western students themselves who will destroy their own countries.”
This is the decade-old plan by Hezbollah and the Iranian regime to destroy America and Europe.

💥 Russia: Much of the Strategic State Fuel Reserve destroyed by a large swarm of Ukrainian drones in Rybinsk, Yaroslavl region.

⚡️⚡️⚡️BREAKING: A Ukrainian drone strike has ignited a major fire at Russia's Novomoskovsk Azot chemical plant in Russian Tula Oblast — one of the country's largest producers of ammonia, nitric acid, methanol, and mineral fertilizers. The facility also supplies critical precursors for explosives and munitions used by the Russian military.
Azot generates hundreds of millions in annual revenue, with potential direct losses from damage, downtime, and repairs running into the tens to hundreds of millions of dollars depending on the fire's extent. Disruptions to fertilizer output risk further inflating global food prices, while halted supply of military chemicals could constrain Russia's ammunition production at a time when stocks are already strained, adding indirect strategic and economic pressure worth potentially billions in broader war-related costs. Moscow will likely face higher import needs and lost export earnings.

In the early hours of this morning, I directed our Armed Forces to intercept a shadow fleet oil tanker attempting to pass through the English Channel.
This successful operation delivers yet another blow to Russia and reminds those fueling Putin's war in Ukraine that we will not let them hide.
I want to thank those involved, including our Armed Forces and law enforcement officers who keep this country safe 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.

This is astonishing from The Sunday Times. As suspected, it looks like the Iranian government was responsible for the front terror group HAYI and the spate of antisemitic attacks across Europe over the last few months. The FBI have their chief in custody.

"Some European countries have interceptors sitting in storage. They should send what they have to Kyiv and let Ukraine take their spot in the delivery queue.."
@LukeDCoffey
European air defense begins over Ukraine, and the Patriot system's PAC-3 interceptor is the best to stop Russian ballistic missiles.
Some European countries have interceptors sitting in storage. They should send what they have to Kyiv and let Ukraine take their spot in the delivery queue, @LukeDCoffey argues.

' "Russia relies on its shadow fleet to fund their conflict in Ukraine and our interdiction delivers a blow to Putin's illegal war."
Russia has been operating a "shadow fleet" of tankers with obscure ownership structures to evade international sanctions imposed on its oil exports.
Responsible for carrying 75% of Russia's sanctioned oil, the shadow fleet of over 700 vessels provides a critical lifeline for the Kremlin, the MoD said.'

BBC: a “metropolitan” bias and a “toxic culture”?
@bbcworldservice
Although the news coverage is excellent & some presenters first-class (h/t @JamesCopnall ) the 'metropolitan' accents of the newsreaders & emphasis on the "other" as exemplified by this case DOES make it 'toxic'.
The best example on the World Service is the anti-men bias: "Toxic Masculinity" presented by, yup, a woman, endless female sports reporters (many of them commenting on male sports) & lots of "Women Only" programmes.
Stop it & let's have full equality rather than DEI !
Sean McGinty, 61, claimed his BBC bosses had “made an example” of him after he publicly condemned the broadcaster for not calling Hamas “terrorists” in the wake of the Oct 7 attacks on Israel.

“At the same time as my tweets, BBC Arabic journalists liked and shared hateful anti-Semitic posts which expressed support for the Oct 7 massacre,” he said. “The BBC investigated them but none of them were disciplined. I got dismissed. How is that fair? It’s two-tier.”
It is not fair & biased BBC

Manager Speak:
"A spokesman for the BBC said: “Sean McGinty was dismissed for gross misconduct and this was upheld by an employment tribunal, which found his claims ‘were not well founded’.”
An independent review found last year that the BBC did not have a “toxic culture”...."
