Summary
Germany’s intelligence chief, Bruno Kahl, warned that Russia’s hybrid warfare, including cyberattacks and sabotage, could escalate to the point where NATO considers invoking Article 5, its mutual defense clause.
Speaking in Berlin, Kahl noted Russia’s growing military capabilities, including battle-hardened troops and advanced drone warfare, which could pose a direct threat to NATO by the end of the decade.
Russia may aim to test NATO’s unity rather than launch large-scale invasions, raising concerns over potential “red line” provocations designed to undermine the alliance’s credibility.
Russia already has their man in place ready to undermine NATO fatally from within, starting on January 20th.
Russia were paying Afghans bounties to kill US and NATO serviceman and Trump did nothing about it, then Biden chickened out on responding to that as well. Our leadership continues to not give a single shit for our troops. They also clearly dont care at all about US citizens being slaughtered by Israel, or NATO positions being attacked by Israel. Strikingly few of our leaders deserve to be in office. https://www.cnn.com/2020/06/27/politics/russia-us-troops-afghanistan/index.html
Russian mercenaries even attacked a US base in 2018-- Trump did nothing at all about that either. https://www.bloomberg.com/view/articles/2018-02-16/russia-attacked-u-s-troops-in-syria
Our diplomats and their families were attacked at their jobs with microwave weapons giving them “havana syndrome” for the rest of their lives, and Trump and Biden did fuckall about that either.
