Ukraine’s ‘International Legion’ Suffering Recruit Shortage
A Dutch lawyer who is serving as a corporal in the legion said that “there’s been a gradual dip in the number of arrivals over the course of the last few months,” in a recent interview.
Damien Magrou added that recruitment, reputation and fundraising have been negatively affected by “Russian disinformation,” and that the legion was “exploring avenues to widen” its recruiting efforts.
Many of the foreign fighters noted that supply shortages, delays in receiving weapons from the West and frustration about communication have “challenged their spirits” after months of battle.

Trump sees one way to end ‘persecution’ against him
RT World News (RSS)
The former US president has claimed that the attacks would stop if he announced that he won’t run for political office again
Former US President Donald Trump has railed against the congressional committee probing the US Capitol riot, arguing that the investigation is a “hoax” and claiming that political attacks against him would end if he vowed not to run for office again.
“If I renounced my beliefs, and if I agreed to stay silent, and if I stayed home and took it easy, if I announced that I was not going to run any longer for political office, the persecution of Donald Trump would immediately stop,”...

Who Rules Europe?
Strategic Culture Foundation (RSS)
The European Union and the euro must be unwound and Germany and France must again plough their own furrows, Declan Hayes writes.
Though explaining who really rules Europe begins with the Peloponnesian wars and carries on through our more recent Napoleonic wars, it only ends when the governance issues Pericles and Plato first raised are finally resolved. As Donald Kagan reminds us that Pericles believed he and his fellow Athenians should “decide public questions ourselves, or at least come to a sound understanding of them,” his Spartan squabbles are an excellent place to begin our analysis of Europe’s current decline, not least because Pericles and his Peloponnesian wars form the intellectual underpinnings of Europe’s real rulers, such vile Americans as Dick Cheney, Victoria Nuland, Robert Kagan, and his father, the aforementioned Donald, the noted scholar on Pericles’ wars.
These pretentious thugs see Europe’s current dilemma as the same matrix Pericles faced. They want us to have no clear understanding of who we the people (demos) are or where the power (cratos) to rule us lies. Our European nations must not be sovereign, independent actors or form autonomous alliances. When, like the Irish, we vote against Europe’s (sic) interests, we are forced to vote again and again until we vote the right way, their way. Whether we are looking at Ireland, the Netherlands, France, Germany or Italy, we the people must have no meaningful input into the power matrix, their power matrix.
Power, it seems, is ever above and beyond us. It must rest with others, with the European Commission, the European Council, the Troika, the European Central Bank or some other lot who get to dine with the G7 or World Economic Forum’s crews who, their media mouth pieces assure us, know best.
Because we have no control over these rulers, we cannot hold them to account by penalizing them or swapping them for “the other lot,” a process only meaningful where there are fundamental differences between that lot and the other lot and when the media allow the proper articulation of contrary views and public opinion, what the informed and enlightened masses think of issues.
But there is the rub. We, the masses, irrespective of how informed or enlightened we may be, have no meaningful say. Napoleon’s remedy of giving us a whiff of grapeshot has reemerged in the Netherlands, France and Canada where those nations’ plastic Napoleons face revolts that also simmer beneath the surface in the other satrapies that form the EU zombie.
Flawed as he was Napoleon was, at day’s end, a leader, a Spartan artillery officer, who infused his Grande Armée with the most astounding esprit de corps. Napoleon’s mere presence on the battlefield was, according to Wellington, worth 40,000 men and his march on Paris during the Hundred Days is but one instance of what a force of nature Napoleon was; that Carl von Clausewitz invented modern military theory on the back of Napoleon’s campaigns is another.
Great as Napoleon was, Pericles was no slouch either. He not only kept the Athenian alliance in line but he kept his home front happy by honoring Greece’s gods and not getting carried away by his own rhetoric, rhetoric being the mass media of the Athenian square.
