• [Sharing] Escaping Attrition: Ukraine Rolls the Dice – Big Serge

  The Zaporizhia Summer Blockbuster It has been a while since I published anything long-form commenting on the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian War, and I confess that writing this article gave me a modicum of trouble.

• [Sharing] Who is Responsible for Ukraine’s Failed Counteroffensive? – Scott Ritter, Sputnik

  On a normal summer’s day, the road to Rabotino would be empty, save for the odd combine tractor and the vehicles driven by farmers and their families as they tend to the fields of crops they had planted in spring. The summer’s heat would reflect off the horizon, creating glimmering mirages, while the still air…

L’AMX-10 est presque cinquantenaire,…

  Operation enters the second week of Ukraine’s long-awaited and highly touted counteroffensive, some basic conclusions can be drawn even though the fighting continues, and will continue to rage, for some time to come.

• [Sharing] Finally the Bull Charged – Scott Ritter

  Finally the bull charged, the horse leaders ran for the barrera, the picador hit too far back, and the bull got under the horse, lifted him, threw him onto his back. Zurito watched.

• The case in Ukraine of the British depleted uranium shells

  an eco-responsible commitment : not yet used on the battlefield, they are already irradiating Europe As a reminder, during the invasion of Iraq in 2003, Anglo-Saxon troops shot between 1,000 and 2,000 tonnes of depleted uranium (DU) munitions.
