    Why should we trust an abowed leftist? I have yet to see anyone on unherd who I trust to provide accurate information lensed to a a conservitive worldview based on individual freedoms.

    A quick search on the author shows

    "Kyeyune was a member of the Swedish Young Left and chairman of its Uppsala district until 2014"

    "Kyeyune primarily describes himself as a Marxist"

    Its almost like there is a reason to claim conservativtism, then reference exclusively marxist or leftist authors... like you are hiding who you are. Its not that there is never a time when a leftist provides accurate, enciteful information, but for you to not read conservitive or rightwing authors enough to find the information makes me question your authenticity on top of the other reasons mentioned before.

    Sometimes even people you might generally disagree with have something interesting to say, and sometimes they’re even right. If you only listen to people you agree with, you’re arguably simply not thinking.

    Sometimes being the key word.

    Sometimes, but when marxist/authoritarian sources are used to the exclusivity of ones who want to protect freedom, questions are in order.

    I would not read an avowed heretic extensively to gain understanding to my religious beliefs and I dare say your reliance on political heretics calls into question your true politics.

    Someone sure did, but I have a hard time believing FJB had courage enough to, even if clandestinely. I do agree we are a reasonable suspect.

    I believe that as a nation we are culpable, and very likely responsible. As to evidence I point to the fact that excluding 4 years of our recent history 12 years of open, glaring, socialist dictatorship, is all the probable cause needed for said believe.

    However, very obviously we should not forget about General Milley and his merry band of commie brethren.

    Although it is in the realm of possibilities, the people in charge at that time did not possess the courage to blow up a balloon. Many other suspects had motive and balls, again one of these is missing from your equation.
    The biggest misconception all along has been that although they installed Biden, he never was in charge and the fact that everybody thinks him too stupid or unaware of his surroundings and no situational awareness...when he was only a puppet to begin with....just my opinion everyone is entitled to their own.

    That the US blew up the pipeline is no more radical an idea than that the US walked Ukraine into a position where it was likely to be attacked and severely damaged or crippled. Both serve the globalist neo-con agenda that has dominated US foreign policy for most of the past few decades.

    How a General’s Blunder Left Russia’s Border Vulnerable

    Col. Gen. Alexander Lapin dismantled a council that oversaw security in the Kursk province in the months before Ukrainian troops invaded

    In the spring of this year, Moscow’s new military appointee overseeing security in the Kursk province dismantled a council tasked with protecting the vulnerable border region. Col. Gen. Alexander Lapin said the military alone had the strength and the resources to protect Russia’s border, according to an official in Russian security services.

    That plan left yet another hole in Russia’s weak border defenses, which crumbled earlier this month when Ukrainian troops executed a lightning offensive across the border into Kursk. Ukrainian troops crossed the border to find Russian troops in disarray. They surged ahead and now say they occupy more than 400 square miles of Russian territory.

    To be sure, Lapin alone didn’t open the gates to the first foreign invasion of Russian territory since World War II. He was faced with a critical shortage of men. But his misstep is characteristic of a top brass often out of touch with battlefield realities, which now plagues Moscow as it seeks to oust Ukrainian forces from its territory....
