They suck fighting in the battlefield and only can win against those with no heavy weapon, no airforce, no navy or air defense. Will their attack against Lebanon teach them a lesson they never forget?

Of course before it happens, uncle Sam. Step dad macron and sugar daddy Schultz will come to rescue in the name of fighting Iran. Hezbollah' have already kicked their ass twice in the past despite Israel destroying Lebanon in revenge, will this be any different?

But for now, all they can do is to post calls for genocide in yet another country in a sick and sarcastic way.

Wake up! After these elections, Europe is again in danger

The Guardian

Don’t let anyone tell you the results are ‘not so bad’. The hard-right vote can pull the entire EU to the right, and imperil Ukraine.

A Europe that just celebrated on the beaches of Normandy the 80-year-old D-day beginning of its liberation from war, nationalism and fascism now again faces fascism, nationalism and war.

Please don’t be reassured by European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen’s complacent statement that “the centre is holding” during what we might call E-day – 9 June 2024, when the results of 27 different national elections to the European parliament were announced. That’s true in the aggregate distribution of seats between the main party groups in the European parliament, with her own centre-right European People’s party group coming out comfortably on top. But the EU is run by national governments even more than by its directly elected parliament, and E-Day produced hard-right successes in core member states that range from the significant to the shocking. (...)

What we need is a combination of national governments and European institutions that between them deliver the housing young people currently cannot afford, the jobs, the life chances, the security, the green transition, the support for Ukraine. Will Europe wake up before it is too late?

"The Rheinmetall Swindle

At the end of May, one of Germany’s top football clubs, Borussia Dortmund, announced a multiyear sponsorship deal with weapons manufacturer Rheinmetall – the first time a German defense company has sponsored a Bundesliga team. Europe’s largest ammunition manufacturer will now have its logo emblazoned on stadium advertising boards and in the background at press conferences.

"‘To Be America’s Friend Is Fatal’

This is the deal you get as a #US #ally: let the Americans in to feast, and some of the wealthy in the home country get richer as a reward for selling out their countrymen, but for the vast majority quality of life deteriorates as the country gets strip-mined. This is coming to pass in Germany where wealth inequality is quickly widening:"

Merkel withheld information about Russia's intention to blackmail Europe with gas, German outlet reports

Russia aimed to accelerate the introduction of the Nord Stream 2 pipeline into service without German authorities' certification by causing a gas deficit in Europe, Handelsblatt said, referring to a 2021 document from the German Economy Ministry.

The document also described Russian actions as threatening to cause "dramatic consequences," while the filling of gas storage facilities was called "very slow."

Gazprom filled its European gas storage only halfway by July 2021, according to the document.

Peter Altmaier, then-German economy minister, obtained the document and informed the cabinet of ministers, according to Handelsblatt. In October 2023, Merkel told the media that she did not see any signs of Russia cutting its gas supply to Europe.

5:55 am Monday. I'm been up all night. So tired I'm about to fall out of my chair. This is interesting, but if I keep going I'll end up in old Prussia, lost in the Black Forest - and on my floor.

#Germany allowed #Ukraine to shoot down planes in Russian airspace using Patriot systems transferred to it

This was announced by the head of the German-Ukrainian situation center, Bundeswehr Major General Christian Freudig. According to him, “they are excellent for fighting Russian aircraft.”

He stressed that responsibility for the use of the systems lies solely with the Ukrainian military.

“We have great confidence that the Ukrainians […] will do this with great tactical skill and will achieve success,” Freding said.

FLOODING IN GERMANY
A cormorant sits on a street lamp as the river Neckar has left its banks in Heidelberg, Germany, Monday, June 3, 2024. The death toll in floods across a large part of southern Germany has risen to two as the body of a missing woman was found. Chancellor Olaf Scholz visited the flooded region on Monday and officials warned that water levels could rise further in some areas.

#France and #Germany have begun a joint collaboration with #Japan to develop a truck-launched #railgun that can propel a projectile to a speed of Mach 6.8.

This railgun cannon can deliver a cannonball three times the range of current bullets, which is expected to reach a range of 120 to 150 km.

Question is how long will it take to reload the unit between each shot and if it is really worth it. But since it is military, no one cares about the price and real life use.

They want to create a #FASCIST alternative to #EU: #LePen to #Meloni: Let’s team up and form EU #Parliament’s No. 2 group

On the eve of next week’s EU #election, French far-right leader Marine Le Pen is inviting Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni to team up and form a right-wing super-grouping that would be the second-biggest party bloc in the European Parliament.

The far right is projected to perform well in the June 6-9 election but there are still intense doubts about which parties would be able to work together as cross-border political groups — because many of the national parties are sharply divided — especially over Russia’s invasion of Ukraine.

The latest projections suggest 68 seats for ID and 71 for ECR, making 139 lawmakers in the 720-seat chamber. #AfD is on course for 17 seats and the unaffiliated Hungarian Fidesz party currently has 12 MEPs. All together, something over 165 seats would seem to be in play for the (currently disunited) far right.
