Two weeks ago I read a Daily Mail article claiming that the RAF had only EIGHTEEN (!!) fighters available for duty in the Mediterranean.

And not enough pilots to fly them.

We have gotten our “allies” spoiled to the point of uselessness.

Also, our *allies* are not only broke, they have politically corrected their military nearly into irrelevancy.

There was a recent article from the Australian Age stating that Australia is reassessing their military readiness in light of American absence.
