For us in Europe, there are 3 options:

Option 1: Fight Putin

Option 2: Live under his boot

Option 3: Live in his behind

If you choose none of the above it equals Option 2.

Rest of the #FreeWorld: Replace Putin's name with the autocrat who gets to your country first.

The calls from America this weekend to "abolish the EU" are for one simple reason: the EU is the only thing that can keep European nation-states from becoming Russian or American vassals.
The US has declared rhetorical war on the EU
The calls from America this weekend to destroy the EU are revealing. They hate the union because it's the only thing that can keep European countries from being Russian or American vassals.

The most transparent administration in history is now hiding both the complete Epstein files and the complete video of the Sept. 2 boat strike from the American people, only releasing the parts of each that they want you to see while concealing the rest.

Every Western nation should understand by now that Russia is already at war with them. It is on.
They have, hopefully just for the moment, overthrown the USA.

WARNING!

Grok AI on Twitter/X is now spreading unfiltered Russian state propaganda as facts, totally ignoring reports by independent organizations.

This is deliberate misinformation, don't fall for it and use GPT, Llama, Claude, Mistral, etc. for analysis.

Allowing Russia to wage a hybrid war against the West without a proper response was always losing game. There must be costs for aggression and they have been well overdue.

„Europe thinks the unthinkable: Retailiating against Russia“

I have been shouting this from the roof for decades and it is starting to sink in to more and more European officials. They realize that doing nothing is always the greatest risk.

We can only stop Russia by force bc that is the only language they understand.
This excerpt from one of my Substacks, illustrates the point clearly.
The Russians simply works different from us.

In der CDU sprechen sich immer mehr Politiker für die Prüfung eines AfD-Verbots aus. Der Vorsitzende des einflussreichen Arbeitnehmerflügels CDA machte sich nun für eine solche Prüfung durch das Bundesverfassungsgericht stark.

Unsere Beobachtung: Je öfter Menschen wirklich versucht haben, eine "inhaltliche Debatte" mit der AfD zu führen, desto eher sind sie heute für die Prüfung eines AfD Verbots. Die meisten die von "inhaltlich stellen" sprechen, haben es nie versucht.

Russland hat im Budapester Memorandum schriftlich zugesichert, die Ukraine nicht zu überfallen.

Jetzt bietet Putin an, schriftlich zuzusichern, nicht Europa zu überfallen.

Ist das russisch für "ich greife euch auf jeden Fall an"?
