You are very right, specially when it comes to smaller countries. An armed population must be kept ready in case of invasion, It's a sad fact, but in a word where the smaller fish get eaten there's just no other way

There's another uncompleted airframe and if I recall correctly Turkey did show some inclination to finish it with Ukraine, so maybe after the war ends

If I rememeber correctly, in Korea medevac helicopters were marked as per the international conventions (Geneva or Hague, not exactly sure) and they still took fire anyways. Also, there's another issue that won't and can't be

You might have a point, and clearly are more experienced than I am about the inner workings of the german gov but, if they redirected what might be a dangerous letter, shouldn't they have sent it to another less bureaucratic institutio

I don't know if she specifies it but, did she track it along the way? Also, it's just an airtag, why would it be sent to the constitution protection office directly and not to another department of the interior ministry (i.e EOD o

When I read that it had something to do with the constitution protection office I knew it had to be a front for the Interior ministery. It just made sense. Really makes you wonder how many more fronts are there waitingto be discovered

As a non-american I'm starting to get a little bit tired of the american healthcare debate. All we hear is the fact that it doesn't work for a myriad of reasons, but healthcare in Europe and the other countries you guys like to qu

There's a pretty steep rise in gas prices in Europe these days related to the Ukrainian situation so I believe there must be some relation between that rise and the Kazakh prices

I agree entirely with you. That whole self-made-man concept is something that we really should try to get rid of. I am where I am because my parents built me up as a person, they taught me most of the important stuff I ever needed and when

Azeri doctrine changed to reflect a more western style. Also, if you watch drone footage from the war, you'll see that the armenian infantry and armor took very few (if any) measures to mitigate that disadvantage, there's a seriou

I believe that the Armenian defeat was caused by their soviet era tactics and command and the fact that the Azeris had a way better strategic position than the Armenians. Also, drones could have been replaced with pretty much any other plan

There's an issue with Millenium challenge though. General Van Riper gamed the system heavily. For example, he claimed to use motorcycle messengers instead of radios, but transmitted on radio anyways. He also tried to "use" fa

Oh, of course. I meant that in case of a server going down in an app where downtime is a crucial requirement might be useful to have some sort of structured report so that the most useful stuff is transmitted in a reliable manner

I always liked the concept of an SOP and to be honest. The structured reporting system that's used on the military should be more widely used. People rely way too much on improvising when communicating, specially in high stress environ
