britian is a weak and undependable ally. they should be treated as such.
I dont agree. BritAIN has stood with US forces since 9/11. We have been in Iraq since it all started. Every other nation has bugged out.
We have 8,000 in Afghanistan. Doing the hard fighting in the South. This is Taliban central, with de facto front lines formed and daily contacts.
All told we have lost nearly 300 troops in the conflicts, with many hundreds more wounded. Attacked at home and abroad by terrorists, we haven’t caved in.
Oh, and our Navy patrols across the seas. North and South Atlantic, the Med, Gulf, Indian Ocean etc... The Iron Duke patrolling near the Americas has made a number of drugs busts, taking millions of pounds away from international cartels and terrorists. Prince William himself was involved in one such bust.
Oh, and our nuclear subs provide a continuous at sea deterence. Needed now more than ever with the Russian Bear waking and flexing her muscles.
