At this point the baddest country in the world doesn’t have the balls to stand up to a puny apartheid state in the Middle East. At least not the current administration.
I’ve spent more time in the European continent than most. And I don’t mean in some one country.
in fact I grew up over there - speak three European languages (as Europeans do) and frequent it regularly…
Going to Amsterdam next month as a matter of fact.
I’ll give a report on the state of the place…fortunately the Dutch are more practical than the Germans as of late and understand the New Yorker commander in chief better than most.
Iran’s strategy has been to both control global trade chokepoints AND create chaos to disrupt its neighbors.
Iran thought it could use the strait of Hormuz and with the help of the Houthis, disrupt the shipping on the suez canal. Iran also used Hezbollah to disrupt trade along the Eastern Mediterranean.
Sure Iran is less of a “ground and pound” type of fighter as its strategy was to choke the enemy until the enemy tapped out. Trump decided to use their own strategy against them and they are freaking out….as is Europe.
As Germany wanted regional control of europe…Islamist Iran wanted regional control of the Middle East…as the Persia of old did.
So the king of England came to speak to the US - good form!
Ultimately the UK WILL see the light and will join the US in a trade deal as was done from the 1780s.
This UK joining the euro stuff is dead in the water as the EUs gdp is not only Stagnant but is so attached to the past it will die out. The EUs GDP economic heart (Germany) is de-industrializing as we speak and laying off workers.
The UK will join Americas market in a special relationship. You ve heard it here first.
Wow even copying Dear Leader’s molestation of the English language with arbitrary capitalization! Props for such dedicated cosplay. They do say imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.
You think he might squeeze a couple of memecoins out for you if you continue going to bat for him so much? Check’s in the mail already I bet!
Oh, no. The us is taking away troops. What a terrifying move. Whatever shall they do. How terrible. Now there’s only 30000, not 35. Oh god oh no. How will Germany ever survive.
fucken borrrriiiiiing. Typical trump limp dicked negotiation. Good thing he was always a neocon at heart (despite duping all you kool-aid drinkers into thinking he was anti war – not that this mattered to you, happy to drink the punch as always) otherwise he might do something that anyone would actually give a fuck about!
Your best cognitive dissonance is your deep seated belief that American imperialism is good, actually, paired with a complete ignorance of how preferential the deals are for the US bases in Europe. Among many other things, anyhow.
that, and how you always go silent after proven objectively wrong. That’s actually the funniest one
