@mike69 saidYes Mike, in 2026. (And going forward).
In 2026 liar
The only good thing that has come out of the mess your president has inflicted on the world is countries becoming less reliant on a failed state and making better provisions for their future defence.
We can no longer rely on America. You are erratic, unreliable and no longer the leader of the free world in any meaningful sense. Trump has thrown global law out of the window. - Look at him threatening civilian infrastructure and taking oil.
What happened to you guys?

@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidWas it designed for everyone to pay their part, or just rip off our tax dollars and our patriots off protecting you for your own gain. You lost 179 people
2nd bump for Mike:
Funny how Mike asks us to highlight any mistakes he has made then completely ignores this response.....
NATO is a defence alliance. Both Trump and yourself don't seem to be able to grasp this.
After 9/11 NATO acted as it was designed to do and came to the support of the US. (Suffering many causalities in the process).
The current war ...[text shortened]... an imminent nuclear attack (only weeks away).
Your mistake Mike is not comprehending the above.
@mike69 saidFFS it is a defence alliance. Why are you not getting that?
Was it designed for everyone to pay their part, or just rip off our tax dollars and our patriots off protecting you for your own gain.
The ONLY time article 5 has been triggered was in NATO countries coming to the support of the US at the time it was under attack.
@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidYour stuff is old and broken down and you know it, along with troop numbers. You couldn’t even send a ship to protect your own people, you had to borrow one from Germany. I have already given the exact condition of your whole military and you know it, go back and read!

@mike69 saidThe UK remains formidable. - Even putting to the side that we are an independent nuclear power, our military is a top-tier global force, ranked among the strongest in the world with a focus on advanced technology, highly professional personnel, and elite special forces.

You look a little daft trying to belittle our capability.
@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidOk, the gulf war you mentioned
We lost 457 British forces personnel in Afghanistan between 2001 and 2021, with the vast majority occurring in Helmand province.
What is it with you expecting high casualties for countries to prove themselves? - What is wrong with you? Seriously?
@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidThat’s you, what about the ship you just borrowed to TRY and protect your people because yours are broken down.

@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidLook at all you keep dodging, does that say anything about you, like you’re full of sht.

@mike69 saidSorry to break it to you Mike but your country is broken, split down the middle. You have a gun problem that is unresolvable and have lost all credibility on the world stage. You are being mocked everywhere. (Everywhere).

Like I said, I genuinely pity you. - All you have is the parroting of Trump lashing out at his allies after getting out of his depth and no credible exit strategy. It's embarrassing.
@Very-Rusty saidYour constant phrase ‘illegal war” gets boring. If you live in New Zealand, and the people of Borneo killed 2000 of your citizens, and you go after those Boney old people, you are starting a war.
@mike69,
Your President thinks he is a King!!! He starts an illegal war then expects all the allied forces to get involved in a war he did START no matter what you want to call it. He didn't even consult his allies about it. He figured he could handle it on his own and found out Iran was a bit stronger than he had anticipated. He has all yes men and women in his Governm ...[text shortened]... ay 1 I am going to be Dictator but only for a day, well it has lasted longer than a DAY!!!!!!
-VR
Do you think they would have had a right to go after those Borneo people?
The cretin Iranians have killed over 2000 citizens of our country. I think we have just had enough of that and I am going to go blow them up.
Now you will tell us why one is OK and one is not OK. Or are both of them OK?
@wildgrass saidPlot is irrelevant. One party uses genius to go after another. No matter how many stings there are or what difference there is in all of the plots. It is a sting.
It's like 'the sting' but for dumb people who didn't understand the plot of 'the sting'.
@mike69 saidThe Royal Navy boasts a formidable fleet of warships and advanced weaponry, ready to confront any adversary or global threat. With aircraft carriers, assault ships, patrol boats, and survey vessels, our ships are equipped to handle diverse challenges.
That’s you, what about the ship you just borrowed to TRY and protect your people because yours are broken down.
Go educate yourself.

@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidYou think that the war room is not bubbling 24 seven about 20 different strategies, the strategic method that you speak of?
Do it legally. - Do it with a strategic plan that doesn't cause chaos to the Middle East and economic damage to the world economy.
Your post makes absolutely no sense. It is ALL strategy.
The Iranians were not legal when they blew up Beirut, I could write about all of that crap, but the point is they’re not legal. Why do we have to be legal? We ain’t that nice when you consider what they have done to us.
Oh, we are legal by the way. We are attacked. We fight back. All is fair in love and war. All of your posts here are falling apart. I mean all of you guys.
@Ghost-of-a-Duke saidOnly from woke liberal people and leaders that support Muslims over their own people and don’t protect them. This is the largest reason woke nato leaders didn’t do anything but sit on their hands like cowards. Your country also has a big divide, what kind of ally would you be in another five to 10 years. If we leave nato it will be your woke leaders fault and you will pay without us or let China take our spot.
