Jeg hører lige at Iran har lagt miner ud i Hormuz strædet.

Oh joy.

Such a relief to finally hear it spoken loud. As someone from a small country, I used to fear this - saw it as unnecessary.

But we no longer live in that world. Our only independence lies within the EU. And Europe can be a beautiful place, if we protect and nurture it.

Men betyder det noget? Det er Iran der afgΓΈr, hvornΓ₯r strΓ¦det er Γ₯bent.

Det krΓ¦ver Γ₯benbart meget lidt at have held med at affyre et par anti-skib missiler...

Quietly, calmly and forensically, BBC just dismantled the Trump communications shitshow on Iran.

No hyperbole, just laying out an unprecedented military, diplomatic and reputational shambles.

Worth a watch.

I think you think I am saying something I am not.

The US really screwed us by attacking Iran. I just believe we in Europe would benefit by coordinating our political responses more, whatever the outcome of that might be.

As The Third Gulf War spills over, European countries need to remember that we already have a major war in Europe.

Ukraine still needs to be sustained, preferably more than now.

Russia needs to be "handled" in the short, medium- and long term perspectives

Yep.

But not talking such stuff over beforehand just creates space for mis-alignments like these.

The US attacking, and thus blocking, the hub for most of Europe's trade and energy willy-nilly with no gameplan is very, very dangerous political territory.

Soldier Details Chilling Messaging From Higher-Ups About β€˜God’s Plan’ In Iran: β€˜It Shocked Many Of Us’ One commander had a β€œbig grin” on his face while saying Donald Trump β€œhas been anointed by Jesus to light the signal fire in Iran," a service member said.

For some US military commanders, the emerging war in Iran is part of a biblical plan to bring about the end of the world as we know it, according to complaints filed by over 100 service members

Yeah, sounds like Spain didn't ask others on their opinions or misgivings, and then this happens. Not really Merz' fault IMO, this is a super chaotic and dangerous situation where we may have to pick a side ☹️

Spare a thought for Ursula von der Leyen. If she says anything during a geopolitical crisis, she is immediately accused of over-stepping her mandate and gets criticised. If she says nothing she is accused of being missing-in-action and of the EU not having a clue what's going on. Just can't win!

Trump wants to use Anthropic's AI to spy on American citizens and to direct robotic warfare without human judgments. Anthropic says the use must be consistent with law. Trump then announces that he will destroy Anthropic. More evidence that Trump's America is not a rule-of-law state.

Did the UK cave and let the US bomb from their bases. I heard differently earlier, but haven't been following today.
