Hvorfor mener jeg at USN-professor Glenn Diesen er en uetterrettelig formidler av fag og forskning? Det skriver jeg om her👇🏻

"To call out Russia’s lies is no longer enough. Europe must confront — and discard — five lethal delusions of its own," writes Andrew Chakhoyan, academic director at the University of Amsterdam, in his recent op-ed.

For dem som ikke har fått den med seg anbefaler jeg Sven G. Holtmarks dissekering av Glenn Diesen hos Vagant. www.vagant.no/professor-di...
Professor Diesens metode | Vagant
For å lykkes med sin fremstilling av Ukrainas forsvarstiltak etter 2014 som «provokasjoner» mot Russland, må Glenn Diesen gi avkall på metodisk og empirisk redelighet.

Trump er ein del av ondskapens akse.
Trump has fully turned on Zelenskyy: "He's always looking to purchase missiles. Listen, when you start a war, you gotta know you can win a war. You don't start a war against somebody that's 20 times your size and then hope that people give you some missiles."

Hold on, so Steve Witkoff was participating in the Signal group discussing war plans against Houthis while being physically in Moscow, perhaps even in the Kremlin? He met Putin late on March 13. Obviously the odds of Russia not compromising any device he would bring there are pretty slim.

Dagens Diesen: Diesen fremstilles som et offer av 20 akademikere på et urettmessig grunnlag. Hvor blir det av deres evne til å utøve helt banal kildekritikk? Min trådstart på Facebook i dag har funnet veien til Minerva i en modifisert utgave.

Good analysis. Time for European governments to wake up and join efforts. The new alliance between US and Russia leave us in the cold so it is time to start acting.
