I have not heard such a retarded idea in my life before

🌐 🇷🇺 🇺🇦 Baltic states and Poland will deploy troops to Ukraine in case of Russian successes on the front – Spiegel 🔶️ "If the Russians achieve a strategic breakthrough in eastern Ukraine because the West is helping without much enthusiasm, the situation could deteriorate sharply. In such a case, the Baltic states and Poland will not wait for Russian troops to be deployed on their border, Baltic politicians warned - they will introduce troops into Ukraine themselves," the article says. 🔶️ Baltic politicians warned Germany about such a scenario during Lennart Meri's conference in Tallinn, the newspaper said. 📎 Der Spiegel

Faith is loyalty to some inspired Teacher, some spiritual Hero. And what therefore is loyalty proper, the life-breath of all society, but an effluence of Hero-worship, submissive admiration for the truly great? Society is founded on Hero-worship. All dignities of rank, on which human association rests, are what we may call a Heroarchy (Government of Heroes),—or a Hierarchy, for it is "sacred" enough withal! The Duke means Dux, Leader; King is Kon-ning, Kan-ning, Man that knows or cans. Society everywhere is some representation, not insupportably inaccurate, of a graduated Worship of Heroes—reverence and obedience done to men really great and wise. Not insupportably inaccurate, I say! They are all as bank-notes, these social dignitaries, all representing gold;—and several of them, alas, always are forged notes.

All bark and no bite.

🇷🇺🇪🇪⚡- "On 23 May at 3 a.m., Russian Border Guard unilaterally removed the light buoys placed by Estonia to denarcate the border with Russia on the Narva River. This action by Russia, carried out in the shadow of the night, fits well within the broader pattern of Russia's provocative behaviour, including on its borders with neighbours, most recently vis-à-vis Lithuania and Finland. Estonia's response remains calm and clear-eyed. We treat this as a provocative border incident. We will communicate to the Russian Federation through our border representatives and diplomatic channels that such actions are unacceptable, demand an explanation about the removal of the buoys and their immediate return. Estonia is in close contact with Allies and partners as we continue to counter Russia's malign activities across Europe." – Estonian Ministry of Foreign Affairs Press Office.

I don't think these people are quite doing it out of purely personal ideas to support Ukraine. I think they understand very well where they are steering the nation. But I think that a lot of our elite has some perverted pictures saved and take. Lots of blackmail material to push these people into doing irrational decisions that are clearly against Estonian interests.

We can bet as well that 28% of these people are mostly with right wing thinking and pro-National thinking. Once soldiers would be sent to Ukraine, you can bet on that no feminist or homosexual will be deployed to Ukraine. Very strategic thinking.

Gen. Martin Herem, commander of the Estonian Defense Forces: Ministry should increase physical education for pupils

Gen. Martin Herem, commander of the Estonian Defense Forces, said that the national curriculum should include more general physical training because only 28 percent of soldiers entering the Defense Forces can meet the physical fitness test's minimum requirements. "According to last year's results, only 28 percent of soldiers were able to meet the minimum requirements for new recruits. This means that 72 percent of conscripts failed to meet the minimum fitness requirements," Herem said.

🔗ERR Only 28% of soldiers entering the army can actually meet the physical fitness tests and these people want to drag us into a war? If this isn't national suicide then I don't know what is. It's time to wake up and come down from the clouds back to reality.
