  • Ryan is good explaining how military operates, how weapon works, but this is really about predicting what trump will do, and frankly this is much harder to do.

    We talk about common sense, it is a non brainier, as helping Ukraine stop Russia is the most beneficial thing for the US and the West. As he pointed out, Ukraine losing likely will bring war to the rest of the Europe and Taiwan, but trump might not care.

    What worries me is that so far trump never stood up against putin, he insulted many world leaders, but never did that to putin.

    The reason likely is that he was almost bankrupt and putin help him get on his feet, he has a huge debt to him.

    I also link to Anders Puck Nielsen https://youtu.be/gOwjmKMmkV4 he is generally more familiar with strategy and so far was on point in his comments (I also believe Ryan is watching him too). Again, we are trying to predict what trump will do, which is not as easy and his decisions seem to be more about what gives him immediate benefit.

    The absolute worst scenario that could happen is that the NATO collapses. I hope that won’t happen.







  • 100 troops? That many? Why didn’t the whole Middle East surrendered already?

    But seriously, this was response to Iran’s attack and the soldiers are there to operate THAAD batteries to stop Iranian rockets (you know, to discourage Iran from firing at them in the first place to reduce chance of escalation).

    I was asking how many US soldiers are actually taking part in the offensive in Gaza.


  • Are US troops involved there? Because one candidate clearly says that Biden is not doing enough to help Israel.

    Israel currently is led by a similar fascist with criminal record to trump, that once he loses his power he will go to jail. He is using attack on October 7 as an excuse to get rid of Palestine.

    And we have seen that no one can really stop Israel. Do you think Biden wouldn’t prefer that the conflict would be over (and Israel wouldn’t be stirring new shit) and not distract from the war in Ukraine?

    It’s clear that Netanyahu won’t stop what he is doing no matter what and actually wants trump to win as trump promises to help.

    It’s the mentality that billionaires use to impose on us. Yes, our life sucks, but it is not bad, because there are people for whom or sucks much more.

    I am currently reading book called On Freedom by Prof. Timothy Snyder and is really eye opening, how we are being manipulated to hurt our and our children’s future. I think everyone should read it.
