It doesn’t matter. The Americans run the show in NATO.

The US attacked Germany when it blew up the pipeline. I don’t think NATO will last too much longer.

US Armed Forces would last 2 days up against China if we went in to help Taiwan. Chinx would sink all our large ships within 36 hours with their standoff missiles. Aircraft carriers, destroyers etc sunk or disabled within 36 hours.

Same as today’s tanks going up against “hand held” modern antitank missiles. The most advanced actually zig-zag upward to slam down into the tank’s vulnerable turret and ammunition stores. KAYBOOM!

Let’s just cut the BS and admit that NATO is a joke! No US, no NATO.

What really matters is that the sun never sets on the British propaganda empire.

You can’t fund an expansive welfare state and a formidable military at the same time.
Something’s gotta give.

Many Southern families who have sons and believe in God and church attendance will not let their sons join the Woke U.S. Marine Corps. My passed grandfather a former Marine would turn in his grave if he knew of today’s Marines. Our culture is one big rot.

If NATO is in such bad shape, then Putin had no credible fear that NATO would use Ukraine to invade Russia.

“Britain’s armed forces would “last about five days” if there was a war”

Against Whom?

The UK isn’t really a country any more, let alone a world power.

UK armed forces would last just ‘five days’ in a war

Ours' probably won't last much longer, but at least we'll go down being WOKE.
