RT @MorganC000: A catastrophic blast at Canadian Forces Base Wainwright, Alberta has reportedly resulted in multiple fatalities and injuries during a live fire military training operation.

According to local sources on base, Canadian Forces personnel had been conducting exercises over several days when an artillery projectile reportedly struck an active natural gas well on the bombing range, triggering a massive detonation.

The blast is said to have levelled nearby tactical training buildings, with subsequent fires reaching munitions storage and setting off secondary detonations across the range.

The geography and infrastructure;

➟ CFB Wainwright has a documented history of natural gas production, with approximately 180 wells reported on the military property in 2014.

➟ Military range maps identify munitions storage, pipelines and designated live fire danger areas near Peterson Pond.

➟ NASA FIRMS satellite imagery recorded multiple thermal hotspots between Peterson Pond and Jamieson Lake on October 17.

Local accounts also describe hospitals activating Code Orange protocols, mobilizing stretchers and preparing for a significant influx of casualties.

The reported gas well strike, secondary detonations and hospital emergency measures remain unconfirmed as authorities investigate the incident.

Should these reports be confirmed, my thoughts and prayers are with everyone involved and affected.

This guy…..

Macron will go down in history as one of France’s worst presidents. He has pushed a once-great nation to the brink of economic, demographic, and social ruin.

Had he spent his nine years in power focusing less on “Palestine” and more on Putin and the putains de salauds threatening France from within, his country would be far better off. - Mark Dubowitz

RT @Teoyaomiquu: “If someone says it's raining and another person says it's dry, it's not your job to quote them both. Your job is to look out the fucking window.”

Europe’s pro-Russia commentators are absolutely furious with this headline because it correctly describes what they are advocating.

Hats off to the @Telegraph here. This is a great example of that old adage in journalism:

“If someone says it's raining and another person says it's dry, it's not your job to quote them both. Your job is to look out the fucking window.”

In this interview, Mendel advocates for Ukraine to surrender territory to Russia, and surrender its sovereign right to choose its own security alliances, both of which would only escalate Russian aggression in future. She also praises the German far right for their pro-Russia position and says Ukraine is 40% responsible for being invaded.

So this is a perfectly correct headline summarising her position, but it’s no wonder the pro-Russia commentators are furious.

They still think they can be subtle when laundering pro-Russia and pro-war positions within the language of just wanting what’s best for ordinary Ukrainians. They think if they partly acknowledge that Russia is responsible for Russia’s invasion then that gives them free rein to spout pro-Russian views without challenge.

They feel smug about their ability to play this game with us all and get away with it. They are so self-entitled that they don’t expect anyone to call them out on it.

Those days should be over. Call out pro-Russia and pro-war commentators for exactly what they are advocating. It’s time we all look out the fucking window. - Baltic Takes

RT @clashreport: Italy's Defense Minister Crosetto on the U.S. limiting its support for Ukraine:

It’s a total mistake, a big mistake, because it’s fundamental support. It means denying a country every possibility of defending itself.

Peace will come when Putin is convinced there’s a stalemate, that he can’t advance.

But if he sees weakness on the Ukrainian front, and if the United States takes away resources, there is weakness.

Then he thinks he can win, so he’ll continue the war. You give him a reason to continue it, not a reason to end it.

When you weaken someone, you give an advantage to that person's enemy. In my view, that's totally wrong. Totally wrong at this moment.

RT @Mpolymer: Such a phenomenal douche. Our allies fought and died next to us. I spent a butt load of time in Afghanistan (in far worse circumstances than this performative clown) and the only comment to our allies is “thank you.” That’s it. Heartfelt. Thank you. Also, he’s addressing ROTC students with this horseshit. That is just plain dangerous. Our next generation cannot be taught such BS.

Hegseth on Afghanistan:

I was a captain in Afghanistan, and we would go to the headquarters in Kabul, and there would be 50 flags at the headquarters.

It was a beautiful thing to see 50 different countries contributing to the NATO alliance and the ISAF mission there.

Except there were like maybe five that contributed. It was actually closer to one or two that, by the end, were actually involved in kinetic operations.

In fact, the ISAF patch, we would joke that it meant "I Saw Americans Fighting." - Clash Report
