🏹 🇳🇴 🇺🇦 Norway on Friday unveiled a 12-year, $56 billion defense boost that ranks as the country’s most ambitious long-term commitment to its security in its history.

🔶️ We have prioritized four different things which are critical to Ukraine, but also to the NATO alliance. Those are high explosives — which Norway has been a key producer of — rocket engines, missiles and artillery ammunition. So those are the four areas of focus for products that we are ramping up production of, and those are all also areas where Norway plays a key role in the alliance. We are a niche producer of certain items, and these are the most important ones to the alliance right now.

🇷🇺🇺🇦 RUSI report on the lessons of SMO: remembering long-forgotten things

The British Royal Defense Studies Institute (RUSI) released a report in which it analyzed the fighting in Ukraine through the prism of a “war of attrition.” The authors reached conclusions that have been echoed in domestic Telegram channels on multiple occasions:

▪️In such conflicts, countries with economies capable of massive mobilization of both human resources and industry for the production of military goods, required in large quantities due to army expansion, emerge victorious.

▪️ Expensive weapons with superior performance are not suitable for outfitting a large army. It is crucial to complement them with less expensive and more widespread models, particularly if their components are interchangeable with civilian products.

▪️A recruitment system that combines both a large number of reservists and a sergeant corps is essential. Pre-war “professional” units serve as “fire brigades” to stabilize the situation while newly formed units gain combat experience.

▪️“Wars of attrition” do not aim to capture territory but to eliminate enemy forces. They can be divided into two stages: the first involves a peacetime army buying time to mobilize combat power, while the second entails launching a decisive offensive. Offensive and defensive operations driven by politics only deplete resources.

▪️The criteria for initiating a large-scale offensive include completing mobilization and formation preparations, achieving fire and reconnaissance superiority, depleting the enemy’s strategic reserves, and crippling its industry.

▪️In trench warfare, deep maneuvering is challenging; battles are reduced to local attacks and operations. Successful actions by even a small group are arduous without a high level of leadership, organization, and coordination among all forces and resources.

The report seems to aim at challenging the prevailing belief that prolonged “wars of attrition” are obsolete and unnecessary. This, at the very least, warrants attention amidst dismissive remarks by other Western experts with a disdainful attitude towards the situation in the SMO zone.

✝️ 🇺🇸 🇮🇱 Video | Tucker Carlson slams Christians who support Israel:

🔶️ "If you wake up in the morning and decide your Christian faith requires you to support a foreign government blowing up churches and killing Christians, I think you've lost the thread."

Javier Milei was portrayed as a funny Right Wing internet meme when in reality his election was a transparent soft-coup backed by the United States as part of the ongoing implementation of a "New Monroe Doctrine" to displace Chinese and Russian influence in the region.

If you can't see this, you are not serious. And knowing this begs the question— if Milei was a US-backed op, then we must critically examine the role of Tucker Carlson and various anonymous influencers who promoted him to a broadly conservative American audience.

This week Milei will meet with Elon Musk in Texas. Argentina has the largest reserves of Lithium in the world, a critical component in the global green energy transition, specifically for Lithium-ion electric car batteries.

US SOUTHCOM commander Laura Richardson, who recently visited Argentina, said that she had a zoom call with the US ambassador to Argentina and strategy officer for Livent, a Lithium supplier for Tesla. She said the DoD and State Department are trying to "box out" China to prevent Latin American resources from falling into the hands of Russia and China.

Maybe this is why Tucker Carlson and Costin Alamariu promoted Milei so heavily on Musk-owned Twitter/X? You are not immune from propaganda.

Monroe Doctrine & Polk Doctrine have returned in response to waning US hegemony across the globe. ZOG is seeking to insulate a continental Fortess America of sorts. The vast mineral wealth and usable land for farming is to make up for global sealanes becoming unreliable and the modern economy being immensely impacted as a result. #commentary

- During the recent Senate Armed Services Committee testimony, Commander Laura Richardson discussed how to put full pressure on China in the SOUTHCOM area of responsibility.

- They want to standardize the region in NATO/US gear, training, coordination, US-educated military leadership, and interoperability. They have the US Army Corps of Engineers & US Navy Seabees out there working on tons of military infrastructure projects, NATO standardization logistics, construction projects, etc. It is directly similar to the 1930s US military prepping for war with Japan.

- SOUTHCOM's assessment is that the cartels are better armed than many militaries there, so they want to change this. Especially since these cartels are backed by Cuba, Venezuela & co, etc.

- SOUTHCOM wants to heavily invest in the region's economy to counter China's influence on local freshwater, fisheries, farms, oil, strategic minerals, space infrastructure locations, Antarctica infrastructure locations, etc.

- Oh, and disaster relief logistics, wildland firefighting, humanitarian relief projects, immense naval coordination, immense coastal patrol coordination.

Elon, Tucker and Bannon are working together with the Bolsonaro family and Milei among other conservatives in the region to basically practice 21st century imperialism. A character to look for in this is Marco Rubio.

https://teleg.eu/CIG_telegram/40996

"Marco Rubio serves as the senior US senator from Florida, having first been elected to the Senate in 2010. He is chairman of the Senate Committee on Small Business and Entrepreneurship as well as a member of the Senate Appropriations Committee and Senate Foreign Relations Committee, where he is known for his involvement in shaping US policies regarding Latin America. He is also chairman of the Subcommittee on Western Hemisphere, Transnational Crime, Civilian Security, Democracy, Human Rights, and Global Women’s Issues."

"When President Donald Trump took office, he passed down one key instruction on how to handle Latin America: Make Marco Rubio happy."

📝 If you check the background of the increasingly Hispanic GOP politicians today, you may find connections to foreign governments see Bernie Moreno early life. Et, vice versa. The current President of Ecuador is US born and attended school in Washington D.C. Latin America is essentially filled with puppet governments with figures on both sides of the border running them.

Now, why would South Americans seemingly accept over-the-top US subjugation, they must be insane, right?

Well, the region is immensely polarized by left and right with locals gambling for any advantage to cheat from foreign powers. Just so they can become king of the malaria-infested ethnic grievance hill.

Foreign powers make use of this to gain riches and forgotten lands to extort without question.

Finally, in a near-future world without Israel/diaspora power structures running our way of life, there are components which could genuinely be for American interests.

75% of cargo transiting the Panama Canal is American. Meanwhile, China owns both ends of the Panama Canal. Due to both the drought and unwillingness by local authorities, American ships find themselves waiting at the back of the line to cross, despite the canal being as American as the Hoover Dam. This inheritance from Teddy Roosevelt was discarded for nothing in return despite being a top strategic asset in WWII. Americans died building something that was an extreme positive for US prosperity and freedom of movement.
