Snowdens Secret posted:Oh yeah also this I really doubt Putin has any plans to invade Finland. The more likely scenario is that Putin wants to see Finland return back to its cold war status where the country was seemingly independent and neutral but Moscow still had disproportionate influence over Finland's internal politics. I don't really see that happening either unless Finland decides to leave the EU. Still, it would've been nice if we hadn't cancelled the ATACMS contract  . At least the JASSM deal is still going through as planned.

The Yellow Birds by Kevin Powers is another fantastic novel that feature a soldier who walks out of a base in Iraq. However, his fate is considerably worse as he ends up being tortured to death by the insurgents.

Now all we need is for China to decide that it's the perfect time to start settling all those maritime disputes with force  .

The best part about the whole spy scandal is the fact that most of US intelligence activities in Germany were not even focused on the Germans themselves but rather against Russia. Russian intelligence agencies have been infiltrating and penetrating various sectors of German goverment/security/military with massive success for decades now and continue to do so even now.

I'm also eagerly awaiting how Hollande is going to spin not cancelling the Mistral deal in the coming days.

Bolow posted:Spoiler: No one that actually has power to do poo poo to Israel (read: Europe, America) gives a hot steaming poo poo over a bunch of brown people being turned into paste by the judenreich. Israel sells top of the line military technology to china that we give them and that's not enough to break ties with them. You think them exterminating a bunch of muslims that not even the muslim world gives a poo poo about is going to change things? Don't forget the the time they tapped the White House phonelines, recorded Clinton's personal conversations with Lewinsky, and later went on to mention it to him in a casual way that could in no way be seen as blackmail. That was pretty rad.
