  • Ukraine is preparing for Russia in 2026

    The President of Ukraine is warning his people, and the world, that Russia is preparing for another year of war against his State. This is a bad omen because it states he feels like peace is not in sight yet.

    President Zelenskyy is a pragmatist, and he carries it across in his messages to the world on X. This has now been a familiar channel for safe communications about the enemies’ intentions.

    “Today, we again heard signals from Moscow that they are preparing to make next year a year of war. These signals are not only for us. It is crucial that our partners see them, and not only see them but also respond – especially partners in the United States, who often say that Russia wants to end the war.”

    Russia itself is not willing to speak so clearly. It sabre rattles because it has to do so. It also has enemies in some places, not just in Europe, or even North America. It has to stay strong, and think strong as well.

    However, Ukraine is showing a fortitude that signals a different message to us. It shows that Russia cannot win inevitably and that its fortunes are mere chances in an attack it launched itself.

  • Putin may try to up the anti

    The belief that Europe as a continent is going to back Ukraine militarily is hardly surprising. It follows in the development of President Putin’s limited field of view.

    He only sees as far as his own borders in both fact and as a matter of principle. The uncertain status of Ukraine’s border is giving him reasons to say more.

    He may indeed find his soldiers are returned heavier fire or targeted by more powerful strategy. This isn’t the cause of a wider war.

    Putin needs to have his plan for greater domination shut down, and holding to lines isn’t the answer. If he fears it, it will come.

  • Ukraine cements air power initiative

    In Ukraine, unmanned aerial craft are becoming more and more important. They’re used to strike targets but also to take surveillance footage and harass soldiers on the enemy frontlines.

    This technology is supremely hi-tech in its capability, but also require advanced functions to work in the first place. Ukrainian technicians have put a lot of time and effort into developing a form suitable to their unique situation.

  • Churchill is our lasting inspiration against tyranny

    Sir Winston Churchill left a legacy of outright defiance against the most evil form of tyranny. His leadership of the free world against Hitler secured the victory for everyone. He was unwavering in his defeat not just of armies but of ideas also.

    If his generation is seen as racist, it’s by those without a fight to give. Churchill and his peers defeated a force heavy in modern understanding and a tirelessness in its pursuit of vainglory.

    Churchill is said to have possessed an obsessive attention to detail. He made sure all the terms used during the Second World War were free of error and that any ideas from Hitler’s ideology were rejected out of hand. He didn’t allow them to stay on record, in other words.

  • Trump didn’t have to meet Putin

    The Putin-Trump summit isn’t the only way to do it. If the UN hadn’t of berated Israel so much, it might have taken a chance to intervene. It might still have to.

    The problem in international affairs is finding time. There isn’t scope to regret and forget so quickly. The short-term lives on for longer than people think.

    The Israel-Gaza conflict is clearly taking up time – and leading to precious few results. The pressing matter of peace in Europe is taking up American hours.

    It’s the wrong way to do it. The right path is to let peace come by fair means set out for the benefit of the international community. It has to rest on all of us.

  • Exclusive: “Iran Defence Organisation”

    The strikes by Israel have laid bare the military state of Iran. Its nuclear program is part of its ambitions and is a threat to Israel and to the world.

    It’s a jewel in the crown. However, a centrepiece of its efforts had been a plan known as “Iran Defence Organisation”.

    Word ‘cloud’: “Iran Defence Organisation”

    This was an effort to create a new military supplies entity. It would encompass copying modern warfare and incorporating it into existing modes in Iran.

    However, many of its most important planners were experienced only in terror. This world would have been a much less secure place if their mission had succeeded.

  • Call for information: “British Army” mercenaries

    In an exclusive for Conservative News Site, a “Trio” of mercenaries with links to the “British Army” but also units of their own have been sighted in Reading.

  • Russia is losing the war

    The self-belief of autocratic states is now legendary. Their actual skills, when put to the test, show how far they fall short. An appeal to its own history shows there is something lacking for the Russian state.

    Their Victory Day parade is an exhibition of this sort of madness. The appeal is only to a pride inside, and not to reality. The losses of Russia on the battlefield is indicative of its lack of connection to reality.

    The Ministry of Defence of Ukraine tells us that Russia has suffered huge losses. It’s nearing one million lives lost, over 100,000 pieces of equipment, and many larger features of warfare like warships.

    A bit of clothing isn’t going to soften the edge of such defeats. If the Russian state is going to win it needs to do more than march in the peace, and serenity, of Red Square. The future is won by grasping it.
