This paper on educational #wargaming for young Canadian naval officers at HMCS Venture is truly worth your time in reading. They are introducing #wargames early in an officer's career -- improving both game literacy and naval expertise. This is the way!

One of the biggest lessons from Syria is that, just a month ago, almost no one could have predicted the Assad regime would fall today. The "realities on the ground" crowd would have denied such a possibility. A reminder of why people in Ukraine fight rather than surrender.

It's entirely unclear to me what the @theguardian.com editorial board was thinking when they published this.
The INF, as an arms control treaty, became untenable once Russia materially breached it from 2016 onwards, having violated its spirit long before.

People asked “why Kursk”
Messing up the offensive plans of the enemy seems like a good reason

Here's a thing, model making. It's nerdy I get it. BUT legit, even if you've never once thought of doing it. Try it. Especially if you're going through stuff. I got back into the hobby when my daughter was seriously ill with a heart issue. The sense of zen and calm it gave me was unmatched and 1/2

Looking for clues in today’s Russian papers to how Moscow might react to Ukraine striking Russia with ATACMS missiles. In one paper: “Starting World War III over strikes on an arms depot in Bryansk region would probably be short-sighted.” #ReadingRussia

I like scale modelling. Spoiler alert, I'm not very good at it. But here's a Ukrainian 72nd Mechanized Brigade Javelin team. The twist is, they're on a real piece of russian T-72 destroyed in the Battle of Kyiv. Слава Україні!🇺🇦

All of the @SenateGOP @HouseGOP electeds calling for support to Israel, while seeking to cut support for Ukraine are morally bankrupt MAGA lapdogs. There is no rational reason for such a policy except to cater to Trump and MAGA.
