"I see in old Europe a new and commanding breed rising up, fearless and fabulous, unsparing of blood and sparing of pity, inured to suffering the worst and to inflicting it and ready to stake all to attain their ends—a race that builds machines and trusts to machines, to whom machines are not soulless iron, but engines of might which it controls with cold reason and hot blood. This puts a new face on the world."
~ Ernst Jünger, Copse 125

"Time works with heavy tools, and in the battle for some slag-heap of horror, over whose wretched smoke rival conceptions of the world’s future are locked in demoniac strife, it is not a question of the few thousand men who may perhaps be rescued from destruction, but of the dozen or two survivors who are there in the nick of time to turn the scales with their machine-guns or their bombs. That is a view of the world’s destiny which few have the iron nerve and masculine force to bear, and yet one may be proud to live in a time when such a spirt has shaped events to its mould of tempered steel."

Canadian propaganda might be the worst in the world.

Like its high-latitude neighbours Greenland, Iceland and the Faroe Islands, Svalbard seems to be in China's sights. Indeed it now defines itself as a "near-Arctic" state and wants to establish a "Polar Silk Road". "If consolidated, the strategic presence could potentially embolden some... including great powers, with regional aspirations and become a real security challenge for host nation Norway." https://www.france24.com/en/live-news/20220623-russia-and-china-eye-nato-s-arctic-achilles-heel

To what conclusions does Russia’s passivity to provocations lead?

One conclusion is that there are sufficient influential Russians who prefer inclusion in the West to Russian sovereignty and that they are able to block effective Russian responses to provocations. https://www.paulcraigroberts.org/2022/06/23/if-the-kremlin-ever-wakes-up-things-will-go-badly-for-the-west/

Interesting that passivity is also the critique from the Russian hardline. A better term would be restraint, as this has been the real character behind Russian strategy in Syria, Ukraine I, and Iran. It is the patient, measured response and the will to make sacrifices which has led to great victories so far.

The war is fought primarily as shift in the world nomos and on the edge of nuclear conflict, not on the ground – as Schmitt said, world conflict no longer unfolds within the "baroque classical conception of a theater of war." Revolutionary wars - that is, democratic wars of space - are 9/10s armament, positioning, legal and criminal subterfuge, mobilisation, and technological organisation. It is only the final 1/10 that is the spectacular eruption of arms. The importance of this distinction should not be overlooked, as it accounts for the permanent and mixed state of war – and also the character of war which must accomplish the final 1/10 without the total eruption of nuclear weapons. Such a balance is like that space between two seconds of a clock.

Russian nuclear doctrine has never implied passivity, and certainly not fear. In the Cuban Missile Crisis it was the Russians who prevented a nuclear catastrophe, and throughout the current crisis cool heads have prevailed. What has occurred is the transition to a new phase of world order, in which America was defeated, or at least severely wounded in 2014 and 2017. One may think of a wounded Leviathan falling back into the sea – the East, and particularly Russia, is fighting against a wounded monster that may take the world down with it.

This is the real danger and fearful position, America rather than Russia. One can even look to its technological, economic, and social situation to see the costs of the war – the world civil war has eroded its cities, they appear as war zones, and the political order threatens an internal civil war. As a question of power and order one may see American devastation as equivalent to nuking its own cities.

Here a grave mistake on the part of the Russians would begin with accepting hardline positions. One should not interfere with an enemy which us destroying itself, where Mutually Assured Destruction is its policy then defense is the best strategic course. This is without question. While it is possible that an escalation may be necessary - and we are without a doubt on the verge of this - even this would have to be effectively limited in scope. Once again the spatial and world order question is paramount. Slow progress, like that of erosion or radiation, is the path forward. Most likely positions will be taken as cryptographic warnings, as with the revealing of a nuclear submarine position along strategic strongholds combined with acts of sabotage. This would continue the war along the threshold of nuclear conflict without stepping across the line.

"Massive Bombardment”: Belarus Reportedly Strikes Ukraine

Officials in Ukraine said the country came under heavy fire from neighboring Belarus, a Russian ally that has not been involved in the fighting.

Twenty rockets targeted the village of Desna in the northern Chernigiv region in “a massive bombardment,” according to Ukraine’s northern military command. There were no casualties reported.

Ukraine said it came under “massive bombardment” Saturday (June 25) from Belarus, the day after announcing a retreat from the strategic city of Severodonetsk.

“Today’s strike is directly linked to Kremlin efforts to pull Belarus as a co-belligerent into the war in Ukraine,” the Ukrainian intelligence service said.

The attack came as Russian president Vladimir Putin was scheduled to meet Aleksandr Lukashenko, president of Belarus, in St. Petersburg Saturday.

Climate goals may be at odds with G7 response to fallout from Russian invasion

"How we get there in the short term, how we build for the medium term, how we ensure that the long term is covered is exactly what we're going to be talking about over the next couple of days. Not just with our fellow G7 leaders, but with leaders from around the world who will be joining us in Germany to tackle this very issue," Trudeau said at a press conference in Kigali, Rwanda Saturday at the conclusion of the Commonwealth meeting.
