Ukraine used 700 Patriot missiles in four winter months. The Middle East burned through 800 in three days. "Americans won't be able to provide enough for everyone," EU defense chief Kubilius says, urging Europe to fast-track its own missile production.

Dubai influencers share near-identical videos with footage of Dubai crown prince | LBC Videos featuring the caption โ€˜I know who protects usโ€™ have been circulating on social media

I had no idea until this all started that the UAE licences and pays many influencers to live there and write positively about the regime.

That puts a whole new spin on things.

Propagandists in pocket of regime.

It's why all the messaging is the same.

Speaking of prophecy: "The consequences are unpredictable. Some will appear during the war in Iraq, others will shape the world for years: the marginalization of the UN, divisions within the EU, strained alliances on both sides of the Atlantic, and shaken foundations of the post-WWII order."
