Not Russian or Ukrainian. Am anti-fascist though.

Good. Any effort that can slow or reduce warmaking abilities should be welcomed.

Rutte is shameless.

The Real IRA “issued an evacuation order” just before the Omagh Bombing

Great!

Excellent!

I had filed an EU Ombudsman complaint about the European Parliament incessantly pushing X and other US big tech platforms on its website.

Omg Chomsky went to collect his prize too. That’s depressing.

Depends what you mean by preaching non-violence. If it includes conscientious objectors supporting other soldiers to quit, then I disagree. There’s plenty of that happening right now in the US, Russia, Ukraine, and elsewhere. They are the biggest threat to the state and to capitalism

Saved you a click:

Most of the Bundeswehr strategy remains classified

According to the military strategy, Russia represents “the greatest and most immediate threat for the foreseeable future” to Germany and transatlantic security: “Russia is laying the groundwork for a military attack on NATO member states.”

The document then goes on to analyze how the Bundeswehr should respond to potential war scenarios, such as a Russian attack on NATO territory, though the details are classified.

“It goes without saying that we cannot make these scenarios public. Otherwise, we might as well add Vladimir Putin to our mailing list,” Pistorius said.

It’s like they’re not even trying anymore though.

Greek gov commits to waste billions on warships—that’s the story.

EU: “Deeply concerned.”

I wonder what could have prompted this? 🤔

It’s tempting to think that with more accurate data about schools, hospitals and other civilian infrastructure, this wouldn’t have happened. But I doubt it, because if Secretary Pete Hegseth is even nearly as bloodthirsty and careless about human life as the President of the UN General Assembly, Annalena Baerbock, he would probably have approved the double-tap bombing of the girls school knowing full-well what it was.

What I mean is — the tech isn’t the problem. It’s our leaders. And not just the crass, bombastic ones like Trump and Hegseth. Indeed, probably worst of all are the fake feminist foreign policy clowns from Europe.

Ask a German who considers themselves progressive, even anti-fascist, if they’ll condemn the oppression of Palestinians, and you’ll find (often, not always) that they’re squarely on the side of the oppressors. They’re not pro-Israeli so much as pro-death

OpenAI’s Sam Altman says today that they’re gonna take Anthropic’s place on DoW classified networks (https://xcancel.com/sama/status/2027578652477821175#m).

Still, Anthropic being designated a “supply chain risk” is good news, as it means Claude cannot officially be used anymore by the Pentagon and by all of its suppliers. That’s massive.

Good discussion of this on HN: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=47188473

I haven’t read anyone say that it was about retaining the IP. Anthropic says, and others agree, that it would be totally irresponsible to use current frontier AI systems for lethal autonomous weapon systems – even if you think that LAWS are okay. Current AI systems are far too error-prone.
