Brett Devereux was more cautious.

"If you are trying to follow the War in Ukraine, I strongly suggest watching the War on the Rocks podcasts for the times they bring in Michael Kofman."

I’ve been caught up in “guilt by association” here. Michael Kofman always struck me as a cheap propagandist. (but I should shut up now)

Mr. Devereux is being more realistic this time than he was at the start of the war in Ukraine.

My takeaway from the war in Ukraine is: it’s going to get worse and last longer than anyone ever imagined.

He stood for a liberal and social democratic Germany. I respect that he didn’t fully go along with the shift towards crusading liberalism and militarism in Germany.

He was always part of the establishment. His writing was rambling and boring, and I always thought he was naive. RIP
