Historian Adam Raz, however, in his book The Thirty Years' War: Benjamin Netanyahu vs. Israel analyzes this event based on memories, eyewitness statements, and written evidence from that time and presents a compelling argument that everything was planned - that its inevitable consequences from a diplomatic-security perspective were precisely what Netanyahu wanted.

"Whether any scenario unfolds globally in the coming years, the continuation of international conflicts is, unfortunately, highly probable. This is partly due to the fact that ongoing fundamental shifts and the opportunities they present drive ambitions and a willingness to take risks for seemingly enormous rewards," Russian President Vladimir Putin said on Thursday, adding that he is confident the situation will calm down with the retreat of Western hegemony.

Russian General Nikitushkin was arrested in Moscow, who had previously been involved in fighting in Ukraine and, after his promotion, focused on modernizing the training of Russian soldiers while facing criticism for the lack of funding for the necessary training equipment. (translated)

"Wars are first won and lost in the minds of people." This applies to soldiers, civilians, and political representatives. A united and determined society is the best deterrent against the enemy. Can Czechs be like Scandinavians? (translated)

Being a fan of Donald must be solid hell for us, and it will get better! The USA, according to Reuters, demands that France and Germany tap into their own strategic reserves of diesel and release them to the market in order to increase supply and thus lower prices. The orange decrepit one has started a war that affects prices. (translated)

New electoral scandal: Several Somali associations in Borlänge claim to be politically independent. At the same time, they openly campaign for Social Democratic politicians. S-topper Maslah Omar has connections to several of the associations. As chair of the culture and leisure committee, he has also participated in decisions regarding millions of municipal kronor to associations where he has been personally involved. The connections go straight into this year's election campaign. An association that previously received municipal grants while Omar was a decision-maker has published a campaign video featuring him and spread calls to vote the government out. This must be investigated promptly. When association grants, political networks, and election campaigns merge, there is an obvious risk of undue influence and corruption. If the rule of law does not act, trust in democracy will be eroded. (translated)

This is no longer just a political blunder, but probably the most humiliating national failure in the history of Finland's industry. This analysis reveals black on white how totally and blindly the Finnish state leadership has sold the interests of its own citizens in front of the marketing department of Silicon Valley. Let's break down this "sleight of hand" into three devastating facts that make the government's actions completely inexcusable. First of all, despite all the prime minister-level hype, promises, and the liturgy of the green transition, the outcome is harsh. As a result of Google's massive investments, no new electricity production is being built in Finland—zero megawatts. The company's marketing department worded it so cleverly that the government, desperately thirsty for economic growth, swallowed the bait completely baffled. The leadership was smilingly taken in front of cameras as a guarantor for a project that will not bring a single new watt to the Finnish grid. The second issue is the hijacking of national base power. This is the real, chilling bomb of the news. Since no new electricity will come, where will these massive data centers draw their power? The answer: from our nuclear power. The analysis reveals that as much as 500 megawatts of Finland's nuclear power capacity is dedicated exclusively to Google until 2050. This nuclear power is not just any electricity. It is precisely that stable, weather-independent base power that is vital for Finland's price stability and security of supply. The government is thus surrendering half a gigawatt of infrastructure intended to safeguard Finnish citizens during cold days to a multinational monopoly for the next quarter century. Thirdly, the master has definitively become a servant. When 500 megawatts of stable nuclear power is tied to Google's inflexible use, and no new capacity is brought in, the mathematical equation is devastating for the Finnish consumer. When a calm cold spell strikes in January, our electricity grid will lack that 500-megawatt lifesaver. It is dedicated to AI computation, and the ordinary Finnish citizen will pay for it with horrendous spikes in market electricity prices and increased transmission fees from Fingrid. The Finnish government allowed a multinational company to blind itself with platitudes and let a foreign entity walk straight into the national switchboard. This is not an investment in Finland. This is a hostile resource grab, which the country's own leadership blessed with a smile, sacrificing the energy security and purchasing power of Finns at the altar of the company's marketing trick. In democracy, there is one simple and ruthless rule: if the highest leadership of the state cannot defend the interests of its own people, it must step aside. Looking at this chain of events and the facts revealed by Talouselämä, the demand for Prime Minister Orpo's resignation is no longer just political shouting. It is the only logical conclusion in a situation where the head of government has shown a total lack of judgment in securing national infrastructure and the economy. The prime minister's job is to be the master in his own country. His task is to sit at the negotiating table, look the world's richest companies in the eye, and say: "This is our grid, our nuclear power, and our nature. You will pay for the infrastructure, you will build the new electricity, and you will pay the royalties here. Otherwise, you can take your servers elsewhere." If the prime minister is not capable of this—if he is so desperate that he can be led by a marketing department's word games like a measuring cup—he does not have the backbone that leading Finland requires in this global squeeze. Then there is only one right action: hand the keys back to the people and resign. (translated)

Do you remember how Fedorov stated that Ukraine is eliminating 50,000 Russians a month? I report that according to the General Staff's data, it was 46,230 for September. Three thousand more than in August. This year's record (one of the highest numbers ever) and a total meat grinder for the Russian army. There will be more on this in the September assessment today.

Ukraine is preparing for a harsh winter and a long conflict, in which the ability to save human lives will be key. "Ukrainians no longer believe that the war will end soon. They want a manager who will robotize the war," says @Svratkin, editor-in-chief of Voxpot, in Studio N. (translated)
