Messerschmidt og Co. rider på højreskredet mod fascisme. Mikkel Bjørns udtalelser er klart inspireret af den fascisme vi ser fra bl.a. Ungarn og nu USA. Det er de klassiske skræmmebilleder blandet med religion. Gør folk bange, fordrej fakta og stil op som "frelseren".

US intelligence has become the clear game changer in Ukraine's successes by enabling constant and effective strikes deep inside Russia.

What does this mean?
After Minsk, Istanbul, and Alaska, it has become clear to everyone that Russia is simply stalling for time
