Well, when you choose the best fighters as red-team, the goal is to learn bitter truths.

If you can't do that, because your ego is hurt, you failed the whole point of the exercise.

#Finns #NATO #Suomi #finland #demoralizing #usa

This really has to stop… the #Finns dominating every top-10 list. Best 🧑🏽‍🎓education, best 🏥 healthcare, best ⚽️ Jari Litmanen, highest standard of living 🌱….fine.

But then casually, almost lazily, forcing U.S. military leadership to step in during a #NATO exercise and tell the Finnish troops to take it down a notch? That’s next-level psychological warfare.

Well played, #Suomi …Well played…
