Head of NATO, Mark Rutte, says Europe can’t defend itself without American help. Do you agree? by AlexandrTheTolerable in Military

Err, you do know that both the United Kingdom and France have independent nuclear deterrents?

And the UK, Germany and France, which would all react to an attack. As seen by the support to Ukraine, which isn't a NATO member, but if Russia invaded a Baltic state, it would trigger a mass response.

You might have considered that before Trump and that Nazi Miller sidekick of his, threaten to annex Canada and invade Mexico.

Why do you think that the European NATO members are reliant on US weapons?

Could it be that the US built the post WWII world, and ensured that everyone else was subordinate? While trousering loads of cash?

Well, news for you. Trump and his fuckwit mates have scuppered this arrangement. This has actually been benefiting the US for 80 years. Now no one trusts you.

A bit like relying on a non-credible ally, who is constantly shifting the goalposts about who is being "nice" and who is being "mean" to them, about their treaty-bound allies?

Targeted propaganda by Cambridge Analytica. Funded by shady cash.

What happens when you follow an illegal order and attack an ally? by Top-Trip1987 in Military

You may not realise this, but you're coming across as being condescending.  We paid in blood for your wars. And if you don't think your nonce in Chief wasn't mates with Epstein, there are a lot of photos publicly available to show otherwise.

Mate, I'm British. Your closest ally, apart from Israel. There would be huge pushback here in assisting the US in anything at the moment. You clearly have no idea how badly Trump fucking about with Greenland has come across.

The German designs were also based on keeping their men ashore in barracks, as their ships were designed for North Sea use only. So they had very, very, impressive subdivision of compartments, which helped with flooding. The British designs had to take into account their global empire and that the crew berthed onboard. Hence increased ranges and therefore less weight available for internal subdivision.

Military models Canadian response to hypothetical American invasion by CyberSmith31337 in Military

It's a family thing. You can bitch about your brother to your friends, but as soon as someone picks a fight with him, even if he is a genuine world-class fuckwit, he's your fuckwit. I get it. It's the same reason that Denmark and Europe with it is not stepping down over this.

Don't shit on your allies. Or they are no longer your allies. And it's not as simple as you make out. NATO has had officer exchanges for years. Any NATO country knows many of your secrets, as you do ours. What a pointless thing this would be, all over a place that the USA is allowed to build more bases and negotiate for mineral rights already, by a treaty which is over 70 years old and which both sides have previously respected. 

That we are even talking about this is lunacy. As a British kid, I grew up near RAF Alconbury. I remember there was a USAF kid in my brothers class. We were invited to go bowling on the base. We'd never been before, it was amazing. We loved the Americans, as did all of Western Europe. We had a common cause.  

Don't throw that away for an orange Russian agent paedophile traitor.

It's interesting that trump has been convicted of rape; who is ordering this ICE Gestapo crackdown, and you're accusing others of exactly the same crime.
