Palantir manifesto described as ‘ramblings of a supervillain’ amid UK contract fears

“Palantir’s manifesto, which embraces AI state surveillance of citizens along with national service in the USA, is either a parody of a RoboCop film, or a disturbing narcissistic rant from an arrogant organisation,”

The end game is audacious: High-tech company towns free from state law and most federal rules—including the Internal Revenue Code, major environmental laws like the Clean Water Act and the Endangered Species Act; worker protections like the Fair Labor Standards Act and the Occupational Health and Safety Act; and the Affordable Care Act.

Company Towns

A lot is unknown about how Freedom Cities would work. Tom W. Bell, a Chapman University law professor focusing on special jurisdictions, is working with the Frontier Foundation to create a legal basis.

They would (allegedly) be “small safely-contained experiments in governance” to “help us discover better ways to live together,” Bell said. “Freedom is better than gold. When you turn people loose to create and give them incentives to satisfy market demand—wow—that’s what we want to tap.”

In his vision, Freedom Cities would be governed by the secretaries of Commerce, Treasury, and Interior, and they would be completely exempt from nearly all federal environmental, healthcare, and labor laws, and the tax code.

New Age Company Towns

The city of Grand Junction, Colo., along the Colorado River, is flanked by a national monument and BLM land to the horizon in nearly every direction, making it a prime area for developers looking to build Freedom Cities.

AEI and the Frontier Foundation pegged some public land beneath the towering sand-tinted Book Cliffs on the northern flank of Grand Junction as a perfect site for a Freedom City. Public lands there are treeless and undeveloped, often used for off-highway-vehicle trails and little else. But it’s close to a freeway and an existing airport.

Places like the Grand Junction area, the desert surrounding Las Vegas, the Treasure Valley surrounding Boise, Idaho, and the sagebrush steppe in Deschutes County, Ore., home to the cities of Bend and Redmond, are ideal to build new Freedom Cities that would be key to reindustrializing the US, supporters say.

Each one would focus on a specific kind of technological development, said entrepreneur Nick Allen, a founder of the Frontier Foundation.

Similar to company towns for new tech, one new city would focus on semiconductors, and others would be built on the defense, drones, advanced materials, biotech, and nuclear energy industries, he said.

The document dump fails to disclose while enabling the coverup of ties to Israel and Mossad

Here are a few of the tasty but unsatisfying tidbits from the latest release.

In a 2019 email to the Cleveland office of the FBI, someone in Israel named Erez Zadok wrote that “in 2001, Mr. Epstein transferred approximately $9 million to the Wexner Foundation. During the years 2004-2006, the Wexner Foundation transferred at least 2.3 million USD to the Israeli former Prime Minister Ehud Barak. Mr. Epstein signed personally on [a] few of the transfers’ forms.”

Donors and lawyers

Email between Jeffrey Epstein and a secretary to private equity billionaire Leon Black show that, in 2014, Isaac Herzog, then head of Israel’s opposition Labor party, the former party of Ehud Barak, visited Epstein’s infamous Little Saint James island.

Today Herzog is president of Israel.

Black, also an Epstein associate, has been one of Herzog’s biggest political donors.

Epstein also wrote but never sent an undated letter to Les Wexner in an attempt to rekindle the financial partnership Wexner broke off in 2007 after sexual abuse allegations surfaced against Epstein in Florida.

“You and I had ‘gang stuff’ for over 15 years,” Epstein wrote, noting that “I owe a great debt to you, as frankly you owe to me,” adding that he had “no intention of divulging any confidence of ours.”

A 2020 FBI report states that Alan Dershowitz, the Harvard lawyer who befriended and represented Epstein, told a Confidential Human Source (CHS) that “if he were young again, he would be holding a stun gun as an Israeli Intelligence (Mossad) agent. CHS believed Dershowitz was co-opted by Mossad and subscribed to their mission. CHS still continues to communicate occasionally for Dershowitz.”

The same FBI report goes on to say that Epstein “was represented by Dershowitz. CHS remembered Dershowitz tell Alex Ocasta [sic – Acosta] (US Attorney of Southern District of Florida at the time) that Epstein belonged to both US and allied intelligence services. CHS shared phone calls between Dershowitz and Epstein during which he/she took notes. After these calls, Mossad would then call Dershowitz to debrief.”

An Epstein associate named Greg Brown, meanwhile, pitched plans to Epstein in a 2011 email for tapping into Libya’s $32.4 billion in frozen assets held in the US, alluding to the possible help of former British and Israeli intelligence officials.

A 2016 email from Hyatt Hotel billionaire and Israel investor Tom Pritzker to Epstein mentions an article in the Israeli press alleging that James Comey sabotaged Hillary Clinton’s campaign as revenge for President Clinton’s pardon of Marc Rich. Comey had successfully prosecuted Rich for diverting sanctioned Iranian oil to Israel, but Israel – under Ehud Barak – reportedly wanted him pardoned because he had “done work for Mossad.”

DoJ withheld Epstein files related to Trump

The Justice Department allegedly withheld dozens of files related to Jeffrey Epstein that included an FBI investigation into claims of abuse against President Trump, according to a new report.

Trump was accused of sexually assaulting a teen girl in the 1980s, and the FBI investigated those claims and interviewed the alleged victim

“I reviewed unredacted evidence logs at the Department of Justice,” Rep. Robert Garcia, the top Democrat on the House Oversight Committee, said Tuesday in a statement following NPR’s report. “The DOJ appears to have illegally withheld FBI interviews with this survivor who accused President Trump of heinous crimes.”

However, one woman’s claims were investigated further.

The woman reportedly told investigators that Epstein introduced her to Trump when she was between 13 and 15 years old. She said Trump pushed her head down toward his exposed penis, which she bit, leading Trump to punch her in the head and kick her out of the room.

FBI agents interviewed the woman four times, but only one of those interviews was included in the Epstein files release, according to NPR’s investigation. Another 53 pages of interviews and notes were withheld as well.

The feds also didn’t release files relating to another woman who said Epstein introduced her to Trump while she was a teenager and told the future president, “This is a good one, huh?”

That woman’s accusations were included in discovery materials provided to lawyers for Epstein’s accomplice, Ghislaine Maxwell, during her trial in 2021. However, they were not included in the DOJ’s Epstein files release, according to NPR.

Those interviews were used during discovery for the case against Ghislaine Maxwell. She was sent to trial and convicted. Interesting they were not included in the DoJ release.

Epstein and the Tech Bros… Not just Musk and Gates

All of the them sitting around the Whitehouse with Donald Trump and JD Vance

Peter Thiel, PayPal and Palantir co-founder 

Peter Thiel, a venture capitalist and co-founder of Palantir and PayPal, where he once worked alongside Elon Musk, also appears in the Epstein files, with the latest release showing correspondence between and about the two.

Those communications began around 2014 and lasted until around 2019, just months before Epstein was arrested on federal sex trafficking char

Reid Hoffman, LinkedIn co-founder 

The latest Epstein file releases feature many references to Reid Hoffman, who co-founded LinkedIn in 2002, with communications between the two showing several friendly email exchanges.

Sergey Brin, Google co-founder 

The file release also contains multiple references to Google co-founder Sergey Brin, including email communications.

One particular email chain in April 2003 showed Brin communicating with Ghislaine Maxwell, Epstein’s longtime companion and convicted co-conspirator, regarding potential dinner plans at Epstein’s New York estate.

The exchange appeared to follow up on an earlier encounter between the two. “Dinners at Jeffrey’s are always happily casual and relaxed. Look forward to seeing you,” Maxwell wrote.  

Steven Sinofsky, ex-Microsoft executive 

More details of the relationship between Epstein and Steven Sinofsky, a former Microsoft executive who oversaw key products like Windows and Office, were revealed in the latest files.

The documents showed that Sinofsky had sought Epstein’s advice on the terms of his exit from Microsoft after leaving in 2012.

Sinofsky, who is now a board partner at venture capital firm Andreessen Horowitz, then emailed Epstein in September 2013, about three months after Microsoft announced the terms of his $14 million retirement agreement, writing: “Got paid. You will be too :)”

One last one, my bad! – Inside Epstein’s network

Interesting charts for you to view

Most of Epstein’s correspondence was with his staff, service providers and business contacts. People who worked for or with him made up a third of the top 500 names and accounted for nearly three-fifths of his messages. Chief among them were Lesley Groff, his assistant; Richard Kahn, his accountant; and Larry Visoski, his pilot. Homes in New York and Palm Beach, and his private Caribbean island, required armies of contractors and housekeepers. The rest of the emails, however, depict a remarkable network. The top 500 correspondents come from a number of different industries. Some 19% of messages were with financiers; 10% with scientists or doctors; 8% with people in media, entertainment or public relations; 7% with technologists; 6% each for lawyers, politicians, academics and other businessfolk; and 5% with property magnates. The share of contacts in finance peaked at 25% in 2014 and then fell as those in academia and law rose. Most correspondents were based in America, though Epstein kept ties with Britain, France, Germany, Nordic countries, Gulf states and even a Venezuelan oil trader.

1- Information on the toing and froing from Epstein’s properties were pretty thoroughly tracked.

2- Someone or some entity has this information and is using it as seen fit. Coupled with whatever videos Mr Epstein was making on his properties- the who, what and where of visitors to Epstein properties is pretty well known and probably much more involved then any of us have considered

3. Your information should you carry a personal tracking device with you everywhere is also thoroughly tracked and traced. The who, what and where of your personal business is also pretty well known too.

I’m aware that my time on line is tracked. I do what can be done to mitigate the footprint. I use a dumb phone and still to this day pay in cash. Avoiding places of business that will not take cash and telling them why.

What measure should we as the masses take to prevent this intrusive tracking. Or are too many accepting the open air prison and calling it freedom? It’s a dilemma. And the push for digital ID is going to make this obtrusive, unwanted meddling that much worse, for all of us

The data amassed by Near Intelligence, a location data broker roiled by allegations of mismanagement and fraud, reveals with high precision the residences of many guests of Little Saint James, a United States Virgin Islands property where Epstein is accused of having groomed, assaulted, and trafficked countless women and girls.

Some girls, prosecutors say, were as young as 14. The former attorney general of the US Virgin Islands alleged that girls as young as 12 were trafficked to Epstein by those within his elite social circle

The coordinates that Near Intelligence collected and left exposed online pinpoint locations to within a few centimeters of space. Visitors were tracked as they moved from the Ritz-Carlton on neighboring St. Thomas Island, for instance, to a specific dock at the American Yacht Harbor—a marina once co-owned by Epstein that hosts an “impressive array” of pleasure boats and mega-yachts. The data pinpointed their movements as they were transported to Epstein’s dock on Little St. James, revealing the exact routes taken to the island.

The tracking continued after they arrived. From inside Epstein’s enigmatic waterfront temple to the pristine beaches, pools, and cabanas scattered across his 71-acres of prime archipelagic real estate, the data compiled by Near captures the movements of scores of people who sojourned at Little St. James as early as July 2016. The recorded surveillance concludes on July 6, 2019—the day of Epstein’s final arrest.

Eleven years earlier, the disgraced financier was sentenced to 18 months in jail after a guilty plea in 2008 for soliciting and procuring a minor engaged in prostitution, securing a secret “sweetheart” deal to avoid any federal charges. Renewed interest in the case, notably prompted by a Miami Herald investigation, spawned new charges against Epstein, who was apprehended at New Jersey’s Teterboro Airport in July 2019. A raid of Epstein’s Manhattan townhouse by federal agents yielded a cache of child sexual abuse material, nearly 50 individually cut diamonds, and a fraudulent Saudia Arabian passport, which had expired. He reportedly died by suicide a month later while incarcerated at the Metropolitan Correctional Center, a federal detention facility that closed shortly after Epstein’s death.

Ghislaine Maxwell, former British socialite and an Epstein accomplice, was convicted in 2021 on five counts including sexual trafficking of children by force. Maxwell was arrested in New Hampshire, tracked to a million-dollar home by federal agents using location data pulled from her cell phone.

Little is known publicly about Epstein’s activities in the decade prior to his 2019 arrest. The majority of women who came forward that year to accuse the convicted pedophile in court say they were assaulted in the ’90s and early 2000s.

Now, however, 11,279 coordinates obtained by WIRED show not only a flood of traffic to Epstein’s island property—nearly a decade after his conviction as a sex offender—but also point to as many as 166 locations throughout the US where Near Intelligence infers that visitors to Little St. James likely lived and worked. The cache also points to cities in Ukraine, (known for human trafficking of their women and girls long before the military action) the Cayman Islands, and Australia, among others.
Near Intelligence, for example, tracked devices visiting Little St. James from locations in 80 cities crisscrossing 26 US states and territories, with Florida, Massachusetts, Texas, Michigan, and New York topping the list. The coordinates point to mansions in gated communities in Michigan and Florida; homes in Martha’s Vineyard and Nantucket in Massachusetts; a nightclub in Miami; and the sidewalk across the street from Trump Tower on Fifth Avenue in New York City.

The coordinates also point to various Epstein properties beyond Little St. James, including his 8,000-acre New Mexico ranch and a waterfront mansion on El Brillo Way in Palm Beach, where prosecutors said in an indictment that Epstein trafficked numerous “minor girls” for the purposes of molesting and abusing them. Near’s data is notably missing any locations in Europe, where citizens are safeguarded by comprehensive privacy laws.

Near Intelligence’s maps of Epstein’s island reveal in stark detail the precision surveillance that data brokers can achieve with the aid of loose privacy restrictions under US law. The firm, which has roots in Singapore and Bengaluru, India, sources its location data from advertising exchanges—companies that quietly interact with billions of devices as users browse the web and move about the world.

Before a targeted advertisement appears on an app or website, phones and other devices send information about their owners to real-time bidding platforms and ad exchanges, frequently including users’ location data. While advertisers can use this data to inform their bidding decisions, companies like Near Intelligence will siphon, repackage, analyze, and sell it.

Several ad exchanges, according to The Wall Street Journal, have reportedly terminated arrangements with Near, claiming that its use of their data violated the exchanges’ terms of service.

Officially, this data is intended to be used by companies hoping to determine where potential customers work and reside. But in October 2023, the Journal revealed that Near had once provided data to the US military via a maze of obscure marketing companies, cutouts, and conduits to defense contractors. Bankruptcy records reviewed by WIRED show that in April 2023, Near Intelligence signed a yearlong contract with another firm called nContext, a subsidiary of the defense contractor Sierra Nevada.

We’re going to skip through the tracking of Epstein pals and/or victims to a more general view on how this tracking is done to just ordinary folk

InContext secured six federal contracts to provide data in support of the National Security Agency and the Defense Counterintelligence and Security Agency, according to reporting by Byron Tau, author of Means of Control, an exposé of the data-broker industry and its ties to the US surveillance state. According to information released during a $100 million funding round in 2019, Near claims to have information on roughly 1.6 billion people in 44 countries.

The data on Epstein’s guests was produced using an intelligence platform formerly known as Vista, which has now been folded into a product called Pinnacle. WIRED discovered several so-called Vista reports while examining Pinnacle’s publicly accessible code. While the specific URLs for the reports are difficult to find, Google’s web crawlers were able to locate at least two other publicly accessible Vista reports: one geofencing the Westfield Mall of the Netherlands and another targeting Saipan-Ledo Park in El Paso, Texas.

Legislation introduced during multiple sessions of Congress have aimed to restrict the sale of location data, chiefly to prevent US law enforcement and intelligence agencies from tracking Americans without a warrant. So far, those efforts have failed.

Separately, US president Joe Biden issued an executive order in February instructing the Justice Department to establish new rules preventing US companies from selling data to rival nations, which might include Iran, China, Russia, and North Korea. This order is unlikely to impact Azira’s business in the United States.

Don’t sell the date to rival nations but feel free to provide it to anyone else. Law enforcement, intelligence agencies etc., And other non rival nations of course!

“The fact that they have this data in the first place and are allowing people to share it is certainly disturbing,” says Eva Galperin, the director of cybersecurity at the Electronic Frontier Foundation, a digital-rights nonprofit. “I just don’t know how many more of these stories we need to have in order to get strong privacy regulations.”

Canada’s tech industry is gearing up for a big boost in defence spending. But the industry is, in many ways, starting from scratch and needs to quickly ramp up expertise among businesses, investors and government owing to the country’s decades of under investment in defence.

Globally, defence tech is one of the fastest-growing sectors, said Daniel Sax, founder and CEO at the Canadian Space Mining Corporation.

“There are tens of billions being deployed into this industry. There are governments around the world getting behind it, and Canada is in the early stages of waking up to that,” Mr. Sax said on the panel, held in Toronto and hosted by the Icebreaker, a defence newsletter.

Mr. Carney has emphasized his desire to prioritize spending on Canadian defence companies, where possible, and diversify away from the country’s reliance on U.S. military goods.

To do this, Mark Maybank, co-founder and managing partner at Maverix Private Equity, said private and public sector investors will likely have to focus on dual-use technologies, which can be used both commercially and for defence.

Cheap drones are torching billion-dollar fortresses and countries are waging direct warfare from thousands of miles away. Last year, Houthi drones successfully blocked global commerce through the Red Sea despite US carrier strike groups stationed in the region. More recently, Ukraine unleashed a surprise attack of 104 drones 800km deep into Russian territory, lighting up the Kirishi refinery and significantly damaging Moscow’s aerial assault capabilities.

Weeks later, Israel ran the same playbook, using smuggled drones (along with traditional assets) to wreak havoc on Iranian nuclear facilities and military targets as a part of its broader “preemptive strike” on the country. Tehran responded to Israeli air strikes by hurling hundreds of Shahed drones, cruise missiles, and ballistic missiles towards Tel Aviv and interior targets. Israel’s missile defenses have successfully blocked a large majority of the strikes, but at roughly $45,000 per Tamir shot such defenses are not free or unlimited. Iranian ballistic missiles have continued to penetrate the Iron Dome, causing direct damage on civilian and military installments. The U.S.’ involvement began with a USAF crew that never had feet on the ground anywhere outside of Missouri.

Iran, the US and Israel are ostensibly “at war” (or at least in conflict). This is occurring with no troops deployed on foreign soil and each country thousands of miles away from the other.

Many analysts expecting President Donald Trump’s first foreign trip to yield breakthrough deals on Iran or Gaza may have found his recent four-day jaunt through Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the United Arab Emirates somewhat underwhelming. But the commercial deals Trump struck on artificial intelligence cooperation will likely shift the global balance of power for one of this century’s most critical technologies. It’s just not clear yet in whose favor.

The Biden and Trump administrations have both been very clear about the importance of winning the global race for AI supremacy. The Biden administration’s approach to AI dominance was to provide financial support through the $280 billion CHIPS and Science Act and then largely play defense with regulation while trusting US companies to outcompete overseas rivals. These regulations included multiple rounds of semiconductor export controls, a broader “AI diffusion” framework that capped chip sales to most countries (including Saudi Arabia, Qatar, and the UAE), and expanded use of foreign investment screening, including the first-ever regulations on US investment in Chinese AI and semiconductor companies. The Biden administration bet that while these regulations may frustrate some American companies, they would prove a greater drag on the United States’ adversaries and thus preserve the country’s AI head start.

The Trump team feels strongly that these defensive controls undermine the United States’ ability to compete overseas by capping American companies’ revenues and market share. NVIDIA earned just $17 billion in China over the last year compared to more than $61 billion in the United States, a disparity that is largely due to US export controls. Leading American semiconductor tooling company Applied Materials, meanwhile, saw its revenue share from China fall from 43 percent to 25 percent over the last year while overall revenue grew just 6 percent. This is revenue that, according to NVIDIA CEO Jensen Huang, could have been reinvested into jobs and innovation in the United States.

The new administration has therefore opted to flip the Biden premise on its head by revoking the AI diffusion rule and announcing the sale of hundreds of thousands of cutting-edge chips to the Saudis and Emiratis, in addition to committing to build the world’s largest AI data center outside the United States in Abu Dhabi. It is gambling that enabling American companies to directly compete against Chinese rivals in the Gulf and beyond will generate sufficient revenue and innovation rewards to offset the increased risk of cutting-edge technology falling into the hands of US adversaries.

It is not clear which approach is right. But Trump’s “all gas, no brakes” approach is high-risk, high-reward, and almost impossible to reverse: once cutting-edge US AI hardware and software are sitting in a foreign data center or on a foreign server, adversaries can more easily target and acquire them. White House AI czar David Sacks dismissed these concerns while in Riyadh, saying there is “not a risk” of our cutting-edge technology falling into the wrong hands via “a friend like Saudi Arabia.”

The Trump administration has left open the real possibility of espionage being engaged in by adversaries in order to acquire the technology. Interesting.

First few paragraphs included below, read entirely at TruthDig Link

Much of human history only makes sense in light of the persistent influence of eschatology — a word of Greek origin that means “the study of last things.” This is because many of the most significant historical movements and events have been driven, in one way or another, by eschatological beliefs. The Second World War was motivated in part by Hitler’s promise of a “thousand-year Reich,” an idea that mirrored Christianity’s prophecy of a future “Millennial Kingdom” following the Battle of Armageddon. A recent Pew Research Center survey found that roughly 4 in 10 American adults believe that we are “living in the end times,” while another reports that 41% of Americans expect that Jesus will either “definitely” or “probably” return by 2050. These eschatological convictions have had a significant impact on U.S. foreign policy in the Middle East, since our current world, in this narrative, cannot end without a Jewish state in Palestine. Some scholars have dubbed this demographic the “Armageddon Lobby.”

Recent years have seen the emergence of a second and arguably more powerful “Armageddon Lobby.” It resides in epicenters of power like Silicon Valley and embraces a “secular” vision of humanity’s grand future — though it shares many similarities with traditional religion, including a belief in “God” and the promise of immortality through cryonics. The renowned media theorist Douglas Rushkoff calls this vision “The Mindset,” whereas the computer scientist Timnit Gebru and I refer to it as “TESCREALism,” which I have discussed in previous articles for Truthdig. I will mostly stick with Rushkoff’s term in what follows.

Advocates of The Mindset claim that the world as we know it will soon expire. In its ashes, a new era dominated by digital lifeforms — that is, artificial intelligences — will emerge. These beings will stand to us as “gods,” though by merging our brains with AI or “uploading” our minds to computers, we may become gods ourselves: Homo deus — the “human god” — as Yuval Noah Harari puts it. “The most devout holders of The Mindset,” Rushkoff writes in reference to Mark Zuckerberg’s failed “metaverse” project,

H5N1 was weaponized to spread more efficiently to humans. Intentionally. I wrote about this GOF (Gain of Function) at my old site. More than a decade ago. One of those older reports was moved here last year

60 Minutes has been spreading the fear as of late.

Keep in mind that Zbigniew Brzezinski was born in Poland. And had actively planned to target, weaken and encircle Russia.- As part of the Technotronic era.

The US does not want peace with Russia- The multi decade plan is in place- Trump’s peace presidency has been a ruse. As he’s talking gibberish in the forefront, all plans are proceeding for direct war via Poland. NATO’s eastern front proxy.

Going back in time- to April 14/ 2014, when the Polish seeds were germinating in order to grow the new big power in the EU. After a certain recalcitrant government was gotten rid of in 2010

Followed up thereafter with many reports expanding on this geopolitical change – I’ve relinked a few of them in this report- Including changes made between Ukraine and Poland. Poland having a Russian government in waiting within it’s borders.

Poland has been reinvigorating its military preparations for a potential war with Russia since Russia’s full-scale invasion of Ukraine began in February 2022. Warsaw is bolstering its defenses in anticipation of the growing likelihood of direct armed conflict with its perennial historical rival, given the uncertainties surrounding U.S. President Donald Trump’s attempts to broker peace between Moscow and Kyiv, as well as the prospect of Russia consolidating its territorial gains in Ukraine.

The Polish government calculates that if Washington forces Ukraine to surrender parts of its territory and elements of its sovereignty, while Russia is enabled to restore its economy and military through the lifting of economic sanctions, then Poland will be on the front lines of the next war.

In recent weeks, the coalition government of Polish Prime Minister Donald Tusk has taken several domestic and international steps to strengthen Poland’s military capabilities and social preparedness. In a major speech in parliament on March 7, Tusk explained the basis for Poland’s accelerated military buildup Tusk warned that intelligence reports shared by allies indicate that Moscow is planning for a significantly larger war within three to four years by massively investing in its military expansion and capacity for mobilization. Tusk also noted that it was unlikely that Ukraine would receive any hard security guarantees from the United States under any prospective peace deal, meaning that Poland’s predicament had become more dangerous.

During the parliamentary speech, Tusk announced plans to introduce voluntary military training for every adult male so they will be ready to become “full-fledged soldiers in conflict situations” The purpose of the training is to create a substantial reserve force over the coming years by providing incentives for annual training without implementing compulsory military service The training program will include courses in civil defense, first aid provisioning, and firearms training. In addition to men, women will have the option to join the training program.

Tusk claimed that the government was considering the need to build a half-million-strong army in Poland, including reservists. Poland already possesses the third-largest military in the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) and the largest in the European Union with 216,100 personnel (Notes from Poland, July 16, 2024). It is surpassed only by the United States (1.3 million) and Türkiye (481,000), and is followed by France (204,700), Germany (185,600), Italy (171,400), and the United Kingdom (138,100). The previous Law and Justice (Prawo i Sprawiedliwośċ, PiS) government had set a target in 2022 to increase the size of the armed forces to 300,000 personnel. That figure has now been increased due to the growing threat from Russia and the uncertainty surrounding the United States’s commitment to defending Europe.
Poland’s focus on national defense has been evident in its consistent increases in military spending and weapons acquisition In 2022, Poland was one of only nine NATO members to maintain its military spending above the 2 percent of GDP (Gross Domestic Product) guidelines agreed upon by NATO leaders and reaffirmed by their 2014 “Defense Investment Pledge” (NATO, June 18, 2024). Warsaw subsequently increased its share to 3.9 percent in 2023, the highest among all NATO members, even ahead of the United States at 3.49 percent. By 2024, Warsaw’s defense spending had reached 4.12 percent of GDP and is projected to grow to 4.7 percent in 2025.

The Alliance also issued guidelines stating that at least 20 percent of annual defense expenditures should be allocated for the purchase of military equipment. Poland has consistently met or exceeded this target, allocating more than 50 percent of its defense spending to military modernization, the highest level in the alliance In one recent acquisition, Poland’s Defense Ministry signed a deal worth about $1.7 billion to acquire 111 Borsuk (Badger) tracked infantry fighting vehicles from the country’s state-run Polish Armaments Group (Polska Grupa Zbrojeniowa, PGR). Defense Minister Władysław Kosiniak-Kamysz underscored that Warsaw was delivering on promises to invest in Poland’s defense industry.
Another element in Poland’s military buildup consists of constructing major border fortifications with Belarus and Russia (Kaliningrad oblast)

At a cost of 2.4 billion euros ($2.56 billion), Warsaw is fortifying approximately 700 kilometers (435 miles) of its eastern and northern borders in preparation for a potential attack. This “East Shield” (Tarcza Wschód) project includes new physical infrastructure, such as bunkers, minefields, and anti-tank obstacles, together with electronic components, including satellite monitoring, thermal imaging cameras, and anti-drone systems.

According to Kosiniak-Kamysz, the project will be completed by 2028 and will strengthen capabilities against a surprise attack, impede the movement of enemy troops, facilitate the movement of Polish forces, and protect the civilian population Warsaw expects funding for East Shield from various EU defense programs and reached a preliminary agreement in March with the European Investment Bank (EIB) for 1 billion euros ($1.08 billion) in funding. The European Parliament has recognized the project as a flagship initiative for EU-wide defense (European Parliament, March 12).
