When a Swedish minister gets this sassy, it means that they’re furious.

And rightly so. It’s amazing that the small ones have punched so far above their weight, but inexcusable that the bigger ones haven’t followed suit. There simply are capacity limits for the small ones.

For what it’s worth, as a commander and officer it was my duty, moral obligation, and legal requirement to first question and then to not obey any illegal order I was given.

The same is true for everyone who swear their oath.

Hope that clears things up.

I will never forget having to edit Jamal’s final, posthumous piece for the Washington Post, after he was murdered.

He was calling for free expression in the Arab world. You can read it here :

There's a reason why antibiotics shouldn't be prescribed too lightly. They will stop working.

Limiting antibiotic use to when they are most needed is one of the most effective ways to combat the spread of resistance, which is predicted to cause up to 10 million deaths per year worldwide by 2050.

Russia attacks Pokrovsk with 150 000 soldiers of the 700 000 they have in Ukraine.

The peak of USA soldiers in Iraq was 170 000 for the whole country.

Let that sink in.
