There’s no way to kick a member out. Maybe they threaten to withdraw the BAP mission? If I were a Baltic nation I wouldn’t want fighters. Shits expensive and your buddies have them. I would want long range rocket artillery and air defense artillery. And if the other Euros threaten to not defend you remind them they you will shoot missiles at St. Petersburg in a heartbeat and they’ll suffer the consequences too. |

Full translation of the video below, a recording made by a shortly before she bravely interrupted a broadcast on Russia's propaganda news network with an anti-war protest sign. "What is currently happening in Ukraine is a crime. Russia is a country-aggressor. All responsibility for this aggression lies on the conscience of one person: Vladimir Putin. My father is Ukrainian, my mother is Russian. They were never enemies. This necklace around my neck signifies that Russia should immediately stop this fratricidal war and our brotherly nations can make peace with each other. Unfortunately, for the last several years I worked at Channel One, promoting Kremlin propaganda and for that I am very ashamed right now. "I am ashamed that I allowed lies to be told from TV screens, that I allowed Russian people to be zombified. We stayed quiet when all of this was just getting started in 2014. We didn't come out to protest when the Kremlin poisoned Navalny. We continued to quietly watch this inhumane regime. Now the whole world turned away from us. Ten generations of our descendants won't be able to wash away the shame of this fratricidal war." /u/slakmehl |

The German subsidiary of Russian energy giant Rosneft has been hit by a cyberattack, the Federal Office for Information Security (BSI) said on Monday, with hacker group Anonymous claiming responsibility. Rosneft Deutschland reported the incident in the early hours of Saturday morning, the BSI said. Anonymous had published a statement on Friday claiming responsibility for the attack and saying it had captured 20 terabytes of data. Prosecutors in Berlin have opened an investigation, according to a report in Der Spiegel magazine. Rosneft Deutschland reportedly subsequently took its systems offline. Its pipelines and refineries continue to operate as normal, the report added. |

I don't know that I've seen any Russian tank that I believe was killed by another tank. It seems that Russia is using tanks to fight tanks, and Ukraine is using Javelins & Nlaws, just like nature intended. |

Russian magazines lay the rounds flat on the hull floor and have been updated with armor protection. That’s the T-72/90. The Ukrainians use primarily the T-64/80 which was built in the Ukrainian SSR. That stores ammunition upright, and unshielded. It’s much more vulnerable. |

Who had Nork ICBM test on their Bingo card today.
SEOUL: South Korea's presidential office believes North Korea could test an intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) as soon as Monday (Mar 14), local media reported, citing an unnamed source. Tensions on the Korean peninsula have been rising amid growing signs that Pyongyang could soon follow through on its threats to restart testing ICBMs, breaking a self-imposed 2017 moratorium. |
