In the war in Ukraine, the tolls of death is so high, that the suffering of people is almost impossible to fathom. This is due to the nature of the conflict. Mechanised warfare at the scale we are witnessing creates these devastations. In this situation, there should be no doubt about the stance of Israel. […]
Listen, we have to have some kind of an idea about an endgame in Ukraine. What is it, that we wish to make of the war between Russia and Ukraine that is raging right now? My experience is, going to war is easy, winning is difficult, but creating some kind of system out of the […]
Ok, the situation is, as it stands like this: Both parties are, more or less in the same position regarding ethics. It is a war, I know, you loose a war, if you do not fight it. But Ukraine has the Azov batallion, Russia have the Kadyrov batallion. At the wargames, more or less the […]
Zelenski. You want a compromise, fine. This includes you giving something, and Putin giving something.

It is not so difficult to understand what to do in Ukraine, IF you see the development of the European continent in the light of European history. We are all descendants of the great culture that inhabited the Mediterranean in the classical times. Philosophy deriving from Ancient Greece, Egypt and even further away I the […]
The conflict in and around Ukraine has reached a climax. Either we start a really devastating war, or we find some kind of solution to the problem. Seen in the light of the Second World War, this could lead to terrible mayhem, “peace in our time”, would be a word not remembered anymore. But, if […]
Ok, so I have given some thought to the role Israel might play in the current conflict between Putin and Zelenski. First of all, be carefull. Going into the conflict will risk the political capital of not only Israel but Jews in general. If it goes sideways, all Jews will pay, and it can potentially […]
The Ukraine conflict has become both extremely honourful for Ukraine, and at the same time shows the ambiguity of the Western alliance. I have, from the start, called for diplomacy, but I understand, that the Ukrainian people and leadership fight for their freedom. I hope, that, somehow, peace will come. The price in human cost […]
