“… 22. Juni 1940. #Frankreich ist besiegt, die deutsche #Wehrmacht zieht in #Paris ein. «Die Ereignisse marschieren schnell. Man muss sich ihrem Rhythmus anpassen», so der #Bundesrat. Anpassen? Zwei Wochen später wird der Bestand der #Armee im Aktivdienst von 450‘000 auf 150‘000 gesenkt. Eine #Demutsgeste?” #MaxWeber

…wir tun das immer wieder, z.B. die Verweigerung von #Munition zur #Verteidigung der #Ukraine (für die #Oerlikon #Luftabwehrkanonen #Gepard auf #Leopard-Chassis)

The most expensive cat was an #Asia‎n #Leopard cat (ALC)-Domestic Shorthair (DSH) hybrid named Zeus. Zeus, who is 90% ALC and 10% DSH, has an asking price of $100,000 #GBP ($154,000 #USD).

Strength is what we gain from the madness we survive…

How about a Leopard in the dark? A fabulous sighting and very atmospheric as it was stalking Impala...until a Hyena turned up and ruined its attempt.

Plötzlich klingen die Ideen, mit #Gripen, #Eurofighter, #Rafale, #Leopard und etlichen anderen Eigenentwicklungen in der Verteidigung weitgehend unabhängig von den #USA zu bleiben, gar nicht mehr so verrückt.

"Ask #Trump supporters why they like the president, and chances are good you’ll hear something like: He tells it like it is and says what he means. The question, then, is why so many of them refused to take him at his word. Over the first three weeks of the second Trump presidency, a recurrent motif is that Trump does exactly what he said he would, and then people who backed him react with shock and dismay."

Many face-eating #leopard examples in this piece.

Three tigers and a young leopard died from highly pathogenic avian flu #H5N1 at Gorewada Rescue Centre, Nagpur. This marks the first significant #wildlife loss to the virus in captivity in India. Containment measures are in place; other animals tested negative. The virus cross-infected mammals possibly through infected prey or raw meat.
