that is a huge u-turn for the ruling party here. and it also comes in tandem with what s going on in sweden. the two countries very much choreographing their plans to make sure that they have this strength in numbers, if you like. so tomorrow, what we re expecting is now that sweden has announced the government s going ahead, finland will have a vote in its parliament. the finland president will be here for a two-day state visit and it will be at some point during that state visit that both countries will make a big show of signing on the dotted line. those application papers. those will go to nato via each country s embassies, and then nato members will have a chance to consider them before a summit that s taking place in about a month and a half time in madrid. all the nations recognize that this is a tense and vulnerable time for these two nordic countries. russia has promised to retaliate in some form. we don t know just what retaliation that might be. well, in terms oh of that
they don t encourage initiative on the battlefield. this is why you have generals who are actually on the battlefield. that would not happen in a modern western military. they have strength in numbers. do you remember, mike, during the iraq war in afghanistan, we would have people we would have vets that would come back from there and, to us, they d look like kids. these were people that our military would send into towns saying, you need to give them some sanitary, you know, water supply. you need to go and fix this for the village. you need to go in and fix that for the village. they would send these young soldiers, young marines in. you know, they didn t nothing top-down about it. they had to go in and figure out with their unit how to do it. that s something that we have.
of even attacking. but strength in numbers, coordination! so i do think that coordination comes. i don t think that you should demand of movements to be coordinated from the very beginning. i also don t think that movements need to be coordinated to succeed. i feel as though, for instance, and i ll give you the example of kenya s fight for independence. it s very easy to think that it is only the kikuyu, it is only the mau mau who want the fight for independence for all kenyans. that was the resistance movement, the mau mau in the 1950s, yeah. there were several other. it was kikuyu based. yes, and that there were many resistance movements happening in multiple places. it s just some that get named, some that get put in your neat little statistics, so you can tell me about un women and you can tell me about. but i can tell you about so many more grassroots movements that aren t named in un documents that are getting so much stuff done on the ground. all right, fair enough. you turned t
