Suspected Russian drone disappears after violating Polish airspace

A possible Russian Shahed-type drone flew over #PolishAirspace for 33 minutes on Aug. 26 before "disappearing," RMF 24 reported.

A search is underway to find debris in #Tyszowce, Poland. This is the last known recorded location of the drone.

At the moment, it is unclear whether the drone crashed on Polish territory or flew back into Ukrainian airspace.

The Polish military was ready to shoot down the object but was unable to identify it with certainty

#Nato: From #ColdWar to #Ukraine, a #History of the World’s Most Powerful #Alliance

source: https://www.lrb.co.uk/the-paper/v46/n15/tom-stevenson/ill-suited-to-reality

In 1998, John Lewis Gaddis bemoaned that the decision to admit #Poland, #Hungary and the #Czech Republic was taken with almost no public debate and that ‘with remarkably few exceptions’ historians saw it as ‘ill-conceived, ill-timed and above all ill-suited to the realities of the post-Cold War world’. Enlargement violated the principle of magnanimity in victory, and risked driving #Russia to forge an anti-hegemonic alliance with #China.

....

#Military spending by European states has increased by more than 60 per cent since 2014. Yet G7 meetings are still surpassingly easy for US diplomats to run. Nato is both stronger than ever and just as unsuited to averting the next world #crisis.

The descriptions of Nato by US leaders have often had little to do with the defence of Europe and a lot to do with Nato...

S.O.S. #România and its two MEPs, Diana Iovanovici-Șoșoacă and Luis Lazarus, have allied with the right-wing Alternative for #Germany ( #AfD) in the new bloc, ”The Sovereignists”.

Other members include Mi Hazánk (Our Homeland) from Hungary, an irredentist party which claims #Hungary's pre-Trianon borders, the Monarchist-Libertarian, Konfederacja from #Poland, Se Acabó la Fiesta from #Spain, NIKH from #Greece and Hnutie Republika from #Slovakia.

#Fascists all over #Europe creating a united front against our #democracy, while stupid liberals and centrist suck up to them and pushing for a disastrous military conflict with #Russia.

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?

Given #Moscow’s bellicose rhetoric about the #NATO and threats to attack one or more of its members if the West continues to support #Ukraine, many in #Russia and the West have been speculating about where such a Russian move might occur. Most have focused on #Poland, the #Baltic countries, and #Finland as possible targets, but perhaps the most likely one is elsewhere: the #Svalbard archipelago. Svalbard is part of #Norway.https://jamestown.org/program/moscows-first-move-against-nato-could-take-place-in-norways-svalbard-archipelago/

We are finding out who the real fascists are in the world today. The christian Taliban leadership of Poland standing firm behind the genocidal regime of Israel.

EU should have punished and even kicked Poland out of EU when they became the torture center for CIA and US state department during Bush presidency.

But sadly, crimes against EUs so called fundamental foundation of human rights, don't cover crimes against Muslims or people of color. Not to forget their outrageous Taliban style abortion laws or continues torture, mistreatment and even murder of immigrants.

If #Poland starts expelling Ukrainian men, its economy could suffer, Forbes writes.

“This could have a significant impact on the Polish economy, since thousands of Ukrainian citizens living in the country may be forced to leave their jobs and join the army,” the publication reports.

Or, fearing deportation, they can leave Poland and move to another EU country.

A Deloitte report states that the contribution of Ukrainian #refugees to Poland's GDP in 2023 will be 0.7–1.1%. And it is expected that in the long term this effect will increase to 0.9–1.35%.

The majority of Ukrainians in Poland are employed in sectors such as industrial production, transport services and construction.

Of the more than a million Ukrainians who have come to Poland since the start of the full-scale Russian invasion, 371,000 are men of military age.

War for profiting

It is important to know who are those who like to win.

According to the Monitor, “Ukraine has become a giant testing ground for #drones from all over the world – the United States, #Germany, #Poland, and other partner countries. Countless new companies are taking shape around the technology; teams of engineers are tinkering on prototypes, trying to clear the Ministry of Defense and NATO checklists of technical requirements, hoping to nail a military contract…Oleksandr Yakovenko, CEO of TAF Drones [said] the company already has four factories spread out across #Ukraine – despite suffering a sabotage attack that destroyed equipment worth $300,000 in July. The bulk of its supplies (90%) come from #China or #Taiwan. The remainder comes from suppliers in #Europe and the #US. ‘We have to create products that are cheaper than the targets,’ he says. ‘Otherwise, we will not win because our #enemy has more resources than our country.’ ”

#UK government records for a parallel-named Piranha Tech company, operating in the Liverpool area on “computer related activities” and “information technology consultancy activities”, indicate the possibility that the #Israel'is and their Ukrainian partners were considering a British company front during their start-up.
