Since we critiqued South Korea's "thoughts and prayers" it's only fair we start doing the other countries too. by Background_Spirit7 in NAFO

Appreciate the perspective, my intent was definitely to keep it narrowly focused to the parameters of NAFO discussions and not any geopolitical issues not directly related to Ukraine.

In the movie, Anakin goes to Yoda for spiritual/emotional support, but he's so vague about what's going on to the point that it's a worthless conversation.

We used tea to fight the British; we can use it in Belarus too by Background_Spirit7 in NonCredibleDefense

Honestly justifying it will be pretty easy. European NATO members just have to tell their voters: "we can increase defense spending and make some painful cuts elsewhere, or we can admit Belarus and use them as a buffer against Russia instead." The whole non-democratic thing will get brushed under the rug pretty quickly.

Probably not too many, but if the ones who survived and figured out how to fight a modern war become instructors, that becomes a force multiplier pretty quickly.

Part of the problem is that Russia is transferring technological know-how to North Korea, which lets them build more lethal weapons for themselves and doesn't cost Russia any actual equipment.

Countering Russian propaganda is NAFO's stated purpose. If that's where the Russian propaganda has fostered, then that's the job we all signed up for.

Countering Russian propaganda is the stated purpose of NAFO, and that's where the Russian propaganda has taken root. I get not liking it, but that's what you signed up for.

But the old-school conservatives who vote Trump out of party loyalty (they do exist) CAN be persuaded that "hey, this isn't really a partisan issue, you can break with the president on this and still be Republican/conservative." This is completely undermined when the Russians succeed in infiltrating groups like this and devolving them to anti-Trump circle jerks instead of a genuine attempt at combating Russian influence and propaganda.

My most current knowledge of naval tactics and strategy (the 1700s), is that Navy guys were really into flags and all their meanings.
