It is time to be honest about Europeans who support Putin. They are traitors.
The exact same label applies to those who support Donald Trump.
Both leaders are openly hostile to European interests and security.
Supporting them is not a valid political opinion

Important article from former Naval War College professor @radiofreetom.bsky.social. As the headline says, "The Military Is Being Forced to Plan for an Unthinkable Betrayal". 👇
It is not up to the armed forces to put a stop to Trump’s ghastly ideas of war against NATO. The United States is not run by the military, nor should it be. Americans, and their elected representatives, must take this burden away from the armed forces—now.

The Military Is Being Forced to Plan for an Unthinkable Betrayal
Attacking an ally would be a perversion of everything the armed forces have been trained to do.

What Putin is doing isn’t a 'military' operation. It’s a war of terror,a policy of annihilation.He wants to break a people-the Ukrainians"

This is coming from the United States Government. It's awful, a brutal threat of aggression.
Seriously, shame on all you Americans who have let it come to this! If you don't want to go down in history like complete, spineless, fascist-followers you better take some responsibility, and that fast.

A US early-warning radar of one sort or another has been on Greenland for nearly 70 years—without the need for US sovereignty. Greenland is also covered by Article Five & US could protect it v Russia or China. Conflating Greenland's military importance with the issue of US ownership is dishonest.

🔥SBU destroyed Russia’s only Il-38N maritime patrol aircraft over the Black Sea just before the submarine attack in Novorossiysk. The $24M plane was the only one capable of detecting underwater drones like the Sub Sea Baby en route to target. Its elimination cleared the path for a successful strike.
