Politico (EU) puts the spin on the actual ask by saying, “NATO’s Supreme Allied Commander Europe U.S. Gen. Alexus Grynkewich wants more information on escalating hybrid threats.” However, if you pull back the NATO wording and current position, what it really looks like is U.S NATO leaders telling Europe to prove all of these “hybrid attacks” they keep speaking about.
NATO is a collective of EU nations. The official position of NATO is “it sees no imminent threat of a Russian attack.” However, several of the EU-NATO countries are independently reporting “hybrid attacks” under opaque descriptions and then using political soundbites to designate Russia as the cause.
Just like the “drone attack on Zelenskyy’s airplane,” most of these ‘reports’ end up being debunked once they are investigated, or scrutinized. There have been dozens of so-called ‘hybrid attacks’ that were debunked or claimed in such an ambigous fashion they cannot be proven as accurate.
Ex. Russia flying a helicopter in Kaliningrad, is not a hybrid attack against Poland. A Russian drone crashing 160km away from Chișinău, is not a hybrid attack against Moldova. A can of tuna fish attached to a short-range quadcopter at the Leipzig/Halle Airport is not a hybrid attack against Germany.
None of the heads of the nations described above (Poland, Moldova, Germany) have ever asserted those “hybrid attack” examples as an official position of the government. It’s always some arms-length politician or internal bureaucrat that makes the claim, then the media amplifies it.
Well, it would appear that NATO Commander Grynkewich is trying to figure out how/why these quasi-official “hybrid attack” claims are getting promoted by media; because ultimately, it’s his responsibility to formulate a response. One can only imagine Secretary Hegseth calling General Grynkewich on behalf of President Trump and asking for some clarity amid the European claims/noise.
(Politico EU) – BRUSSELS — NATO’s top commander has asked allies to share more information about Russian hybrid attacks as the alliance grapples with escalating threats across Europe.
U.S. Gen. Alexus Grynkewich, NATO’s supreme allied commander Europe, has in recent weeks asked allies to provide details of hybrid incidents and their responses to give the alliance a clearer picture of the threats, according to two NATO diplomats and one person familiar with the matter, all of whom were granted anonymity to speak freely about the sensitive issue.
The effort reflects a challenge for NATO: Individual allies often hold different pieces of intelligence about suspected Russian operations, potentially slowing attribution and making it harder for the alliance to map out cross-country hybrid campaigns. (read more)
I trust Russia more than the EU.
It’s not that I trust Russia more. It’s that I don’t trust the EU at all…
Exactly.
Truer words were never spoken. There is no reason to trust the EU…will they wash their hands when the false flag is initiated?
Had a contact who was a N A T O contractor. Her job was to prepare outlines re how certain world events would likely be viewed by the civilian populations in different nations. She suspected at some point in the near future there would likely be some kind of split occur between different EU nations and N A T O in general. She based her view on the fact the US was gradually changing its view and support of Ukraine and the US Treasury tracking money flows that impacted the Iranian situation. She knew quite a while ago energy prices would be used to influence the US midterms
Nomenclature:
What is a “hybrid” attack?
A “hybrid” is a combination of 2 or more things
What are the “things”?
Can anyone use one of the claimed “hybrid attacks” to illustrate?
It’s an open question for anyone
What is it that are claimed to be “hybrid attacks” and why?
What makes a “hybrid attack” differ from a plain, garden-variety attack?
What is the “hybrid” part?
Thanks
Combination of two things: 1. Bull 2. Shite
Attack. So it’s that Nim 😉🤷🏼♂️😎😂
🙂 — perfect explanation!! LOL!
Lefty people playing word games! After the midterms it slows down, one way or the other. Rigged elections are the “ROOT” of the issues.
Russia is not a natural enemy of the American people. Russia is a MANUFACTURED enemy of the United States.
Coincidentally, Isreal also views Russia as an enemy.
Perhaps related to the fact that Putin is the reason that Russia hasn’t been reduced to the macabre parody of a civilization as has Europe, Canada, and roughly 35-40% of the American population?
The true threats for sane, decent Americans are the jump the shark daily demonrats and their deranged ‘Western World Order’ attempt to enslave humanity with their E.U. allies.
Russia, nor Putin are enemies of the American people.
Period.
Putin is a thug, but he’s also a nationalist. IMO to be a nationalist you must be thuggish.
Too Putin great credit is his ability to ID the issue and not take the IntelComm bait.
I would say that Pres. Trump is very much a nationalist, as in “America First”. Do you think that makes HIM a thug?
Do you trust the US government or other institutions?
When the people are skeptical of everything, and don’t trust government and institutions, what’s left?
Focusing locally, while larger issues are in play.
This is exactly the goal of those manipulating things to keep the frogs from jumping while the water in the pot is warming.
How fortunate for you sunshine….nice emo post….
Care to make an actual reasoned argument ?
Or ask a question like where is the evidence that the EU is experiencing hybrid attacks?
She is busy with moose and squirrel.
Not only a proxy war but a Potemkin one, too.
with chronic False Flags and Fall Guys!
As scripted.
That’s not saying a whole lot 🙂
True but she got lots of thumbs up for saying it.
I trust Russia more than I do our own Intelligence Community.
The problem isn’t that Democrats and Republicans don’t agree on anything.
The problem is that Democrats and Republicans agree on everything it’s just that we haven’t been let in on the joke!
That’s because, We The People are the joke. We are the Sucker in their card game.
Believe that I will contract with Bull…J. Moose & Rocket J. Squirrel for the correct, and more specific, intel re operational info on the villanous “n’ere do well’s”. Regards, Former U. S. Naval Flight & Intelligence Officer

hell yes.
Lieutenant Columbo! Best show ever.
Trust Columbo, but not the others in that photo. Columbo could always be trusted to figure things out. The others – not so much.

Columbo will get to the bottom of it. He always gets his guy/gal!
And in less than an hour if you take the commercials out.
They always “misunderestimate” Columbo.
NATO is mostly EU countries while U.S. taxpayers fork over 750+ billion a year of the annual trillion dollar budget.
Defund these globalist terrorists and shut it down because NATO is of no interest and was formed for thieves of U.S. dollars and bullies who start conflicts and run and hide behind the skirt when they do.
These are the people who told us for 80yrs that Hitler died in a bunker when we now know that wasn’t true while those conspiracy people who said he lived in Argentina till the mid 60s was actually true.
Not arguing. But where is the evidence of this? This is the first I’ve heard of it.
U.S. directly contributes $750M or 16% of NATO’s approximate $5B budget. I directly, through defense, we pay 60% of the defense of the allied countries. “According to official estimates, the U.S. national defense budget sits around $980 billion to $1 trillion, compared to the combined $608 billion to $777 billion spent by Canada and all European members combined.”
I think Football Fan was referring to the Hitler bit.
Who do you think makes up NATO troops? I sent my blood and treasure for you to have the right to make that statement. Do you have some link for your statement? Look it up, I’ll wait.
Great cartoons, or is & Natasha!
Of course Frostbite Falls is in Minnesota….🤷♂️
Boris and Natasha. lol
EU & Carney remind me of the MSM. Arrogant, prideful, and think the entire world should be theirs. They want the U.S. to fight Russia for them so bad they hurt. Don’t have the money, brains, or the military to do it themselves. They are worse than useless and are trying to hide behind the skirt of the U.S.
NATO is the acronym for
NUTLESS
AHOLES
TAKING
OUR MONEY
Poland’s Tusk is a loser. Duda is our friend, not Tusk.
Moldova’s government was installed by the EU like a red light on the porch of a house where girls are trafficked. That woebegone area exports its girls (many forcibly) and they wind up here making money for their abusers. They are a smaller Romania, which has the same problems — installed globalist government, trafficked girls. The Piano Player is a girl trafficker too.
And the Krauts have been aggressors for centuries. They brought the smashings following the ends of WWI and WW2 on themselves. So did the British and French deserve the hammerings they got. But the poor souls of Eastern Europe did not.
It is impossible to hate the Brits enough. Carve that on my tombstone.
The Piano Player may soon experience colonic irrigation by drone.
Cue Kvitka “Casey” Cisyk’s “You Light Up My Life” to celebrate the end of the Piano Player’s grifting and dragooning the people of Ukraine into war, and to mock the plastic “try a little kindness vibe” of the Pat Boone family.
Culturally appropriate. Kvitka was an American of Ukrainian blood. She died of breast cancer in the 1990s. She had the courage to reject and expose the casting couch while all too many female performers submitted to it to advance their careers. God rest her soul!
Solzhenitsyn wrote “August 1914” which is a tour de force of explaining the disaster of Tannenberg, when the Russian generals who were jealous of Samsonov left his Second Army to be destroyed. Samsonov, eaten by despair over attacking prematurely to help the French, couldn’t retreat fast enough to avoid encirclement. He shot himself so his men could escape instead of trying to defend him.
Here’s a PDF link … there are errors as it is OCR scanned, but you can get the gist of Russia’s sacrifices for the French and English — and the barbarity of the Krauts.

It is nice to see the intrepid Columbo with a cigar in each hand!
.
A can of tuna fish? Was that the ‘bomb’ that was originally reported? Was it really an Amazon delivery drone?
“Are these hybrid attacks in the room with you now?”
Yes! Being held by Lloyd from the City of London!
A nothing burger.
The general must know our own clowns are behind the hybrid attack narrative and ff hybrid attacks. They also coordinate the “regular war” drones and missiles from Ukraine and other countries into Russia. Sgt. Schultz versus 1st SS Panzer Division while protected by Army Group Centre.
What is the general going to learn? Sgt. Schultz versus 1st SS Panzer Division while protected by Army Group Centre.
Why now? 9/25/26?
How can this be used to damage Mid terms?
“a can of tuna fish”
🤣🤣🤣
Thank you Sundance, that’s a really good one!
it seems suspicious cat helped write the post.
Exactly. And suspicious cat always knows…
well, if anyone could and would weaponize tuna fish,
it would be the EU!😂
Bravo Sundance on the article and the hilarious part of it.
It’s good to see Boris and Natasha are still alive and well, and still up their old shenanigans.
Dang! Another double cigar case for Lieutenant Columbo? We definitely have to upgrade his pay level now.
Boris (Carney) and Natalia (Ursula with a brunette wig) have been playing a tricky game…….NOT!
They’re hybrid in the sense that they weren’t Russia.
They were Zelensky attacking Zelensky.
Lt. Columbo will figure it out.
Still not a USA problem it is the EU’s Vietnam
I like the way you think Soldier1.
..
I love the Columbo touch!
The coded message is in the cigars!
I’m just thankful you didn’t put one in the obvious place. Of course with Van der Lying aka Satan’s Beech standing there it’s not a surprise.
You should see the back side of the photo!
4 CIGARS
BOTH HANDS
AND
TWO IN HIS NOSTRILS
LOLOLOLOLO
WAIT A MINUTE
+ 2 more implanted in both EARS
So 6 CIGARS
I’ve decided to make my support of Mrs. Sunshine’s position separate because of all the wrong-headed responses she received to her post.
Allow me to elaborate.
Russia has no designs on Europe. Never has. Russia has always suffered the attacks of European and Asian countries and had to defend herself from invasion. Not the other way around.
The European analysis that a Russian attack is imminent is a shiboleth. A mere canard designed to garner the support of naive Europeans and Americans that Russia still maintains the policies of the Soviet Union.
Putin’s policy is Russia First and he has made Russia successful based of a similar policy to Trump’s; perhaps this is the reason the two leaders get along so well?
Russia, when it was the USSR, had satellite countries under their control…European satellite countries.
That is NOT making an argument that Russia currently has designs on European territory.
The USSR did try to take Afghanistan and why did the current government of Russia have troops in Syria?
Supposition that Russia has absolutely no designs on any territory outside their boundaries would be exactly that, supposition and flimsy speculation.
They seek a sphere of enfluence and a safety barrier from NATO.
Still this narrative that hyper attacks in EU originates in Russian policy is unsupported by any recent events.
IOW let’s all hew to the line of facts and actions as best we perceive them and not get caught up in cheering for anyone or any country except our own.
Pragmatic and skeptical poster here.
Well, I’m sure the EU will provide it’s proof via reddit posts. Posts, of course, that they themselves made. World War Reddit another masterstroke brought to you by SD. He is so incisingly on point.
Russia verses the USSR. Weird.
Notice that Columbo is quite the smoker with a cigar in each hand.
.
yeah, nicely “clever”
the later one with cigars in the ears just dumbs it down to lowbrow
Make a claim and then have the media amplify it. Now where have we seen that strategy before?
You know the old saying, “ a lie will travel halfway around the world while the truth is still putting on its shoes.
Lies dam lies and liars lying. They could tell the truth at this point, but I would say they are lying.
Post this under notorious liars!
F.Y.I Sundance, my aunt was June Foray who voiced Natasha and Rocky the squirrel on that show.
Nice!
I want to know if Lt. Columbo take puff from both cigars
EU are obviously the Nazis of this century. They are just a milder form of authoritarianism and big lies. It makes me sick to think of the blood we shed to liberate them and the treasure we gave to rebuild and continue to give to them. We should get far away from them and let them destroy themselves. We should not be in a military alliance with a pack of European countries. We only enable their twisted ideology and behavior which is contrary to our interests. No matter how bad (deindustrialization, energy, migration, free speech) we merrily play along. Every American politician who sucks up to these people is a traitor.
How I love that photo!!!!!!!!!
The EU and NATO are our enemies. We need to openly acknowledge this fact and act against them. The time for delicacy with these globalist-communist parasites is long past. They are at war with us and our interests. Let’s speak openly about this fact and quit hiding behind a long obsolete “status quo.”
We need to see and speak about reality clearly, with no obfuscation. Europe is intentionally destroying itself at the behest of the globalists who run it. They want the white population dead and replaced with brown slaves. The same is true here in America. We all know this, but it has to be proclaimed openly and loudly. Reality must be openly acknowledged, and if our leaders are unwilling to do this, then we need new leaders.
All Muslims present in the United States must be ejected. That is priority number one. All Indians present in the United States must be ejected. That is priority number two. Illegal aliens must all go, but the average Mexican illegal doesn’t pose nearly the threat that the Muslim and Indian “legal” parasites do.
THEY MUST ALL GO. THERE IS NO OTHER ALTERNATIVE.
EXACTLY
DEPORT THEM ALL
“What Hybrid attack? We never mentioned that. You did!”
the “noise” in/on the Italian media is well above the normal sensationalism.
“None of the heads of the nations described above (Poland, Moldova, Germany) have ever asserted those “hybrid attack” examples as an official position of the government. ”
For all intents and purposes, German government officials have indeed adopted the hybrid attacks as official government line. I say this based on the way these German government officials publicly use the drone attack in Leipzig to call out Russia. (I live in Germany)
Recently Germany’s foreign minister spoke in a UN Security Council meeting and leveled specifically this accusation against Russia there:
In front of all the world’s representatives, German foreign minister Wadephul explained how Russia had attempted to blow up two freight planes in Leipzig with a drone fitted with explosives, and that it was no isolated case, but part of a dangerous escalation of Russia in Europe.
Reported Sept. 24, Link:
https://www.welt.de/politik/ausland/article6ab480d5a15a9fecb66934a5/im-un-sicherheitsrat-ruecksichtslose-und-gefaehrliche-eskalation-wadephul-attackiert-russland.html
A different view.
‘NATO is a collective of EU nations’. No, NATO is a collective of European nations that also happen to be in the EU.
For NATO to invoke Article 5, there needs to be a unanimous decision of all members states of NATO. Slovakia’s Prime Minister Robert Fico has currently stated he would not support invoking NATO’s Article 5.
Under the EU each member state is responsible for their own security and defense, but Article 42.7 of the Treaty on European Union (TEU) is a mutual defense clause that can be invoked by a member of the EU.
These ‘hybrid attacks’ attacks are not a NATO problem. It is the responsibility of each European country ‘attacked’ to respond how they see fit. These EU countries can choose to invoke Article 42.7 if they want.
So these so called Russian ‘hybrid attacks’ are not against NATO members, they are against European countries or perhaps against the collective known as the EU, if Article 42.7 is invoked. Not NATO.
Splitting hairs? Yep. 😁
The US holds no obligation to enable a communist federation to attack and feed upon another nation. All we ever hear out of those idiots is a ceaseless torrent of curses against us and our President. Then they demand that we go fight and die for their benefit. No, I think it’s time for them to fight their own battles. Let’s see if their “new Europeans” are willing to march on Russia.
Columbo would some up his investigation and start to walk away, the perp would visibly relax, and then he would turn and say” Oh, there’s one more thing….” and drop the bomb. Classic.
Because the captured media which exists only at the pleasure of the EU oligarchy, reports on precisely what that oligarchy wants it to report on. It’s as simple as that. The oligarchy wants war with Russia, so the captured media reports on every possible transgression, be it real, or imagined.
the EU should be held accountable for all those people got killed Russia and ukraine war,
