Europe preps huge defense package in boost to Ukraine: "Never been seen"
-
The limited military capabilities of Palestinians has restrained Israel’s actions.
How should Palestinians use that nuke?
-
This is also what Europe needs. Europe needs to seriously increase their domestic military manufacturing capabilities now that the US has proven they can't be trusted.
If this money is invested in European military industries then they will need to considerably ramp up their production and overall it will strengthen European military power.
-
One won’t be enough. If they use it, Russia will at least hit the whole frontline with tactical nukes, maybe wipe out a city or two. That means Ukraine can’t use it, making it as valuable as a paperweight. For credible nuclear deterrence a country needs a few dozen nuclear weapons and more than one delivery method.

If you say so.
How should Palestinians use that nuke?
They shouldn't use it, per se.
Just make threats with it, like most countries do. Having a nuke is a deterrent.
-
Absolutely.
-
Noone who has nukes can use them, but that's not the point. Just the threat is enough. One nuke with enough juice to get it to Moscow would be enough. I'm pretty sure if any country ever used a nuke, the whole world would explode.
-
LOL nonsense
-
The Russians couldn't care less that Europe has an army.
Or even their US masters.
There is a problem when they expand NATO with possibly nukes in Ukraine, too close to defend from.
That is a red line, and was known since forever.
And when you lose a war you negotiate surrender.
They are always reasonable and will be OK with a safety buffer. NATO can do what they want with the rest. -
I am an American and I am willing to endure the pain caused by the rest of the world telling our orange turd to fuck off. Please do it. Please make it so incredibly painful that even those who love Orange Turd will start to smell it and reject it. Make it sooo sooo bitter!

In a way, it's what I was hoping would happen. The US backs off its own defense spending and stops acting like the world police force. The flip side of that is that Europe and the rest of the world picks up their own defense.
What I had in mind as an end game is that the US would be at a table of equals. That's not at all what this is.
-
Funny enough, when the USSR split up, Ukraine did have nukes, briefly. It was, you guessed it, the US that convinced them to give all their warheads to Russia.
-
Same thing that happened with Canada. This man is so stupid it's coming full circle
-
If Russia overruns Ukraine, the rest of them are next. Putin is an imperialist.
-
Hey I'm American and I'm all for EU paying for the war in perpetuity and for our mic sinking all the way to the bottom on Mariana trench.
-
Could avoid the whole thing by just kneeling and kissing the ring, capitulating to economic and cultural domination by a foreign mafia.
You are already doing that, bend the knee and kiss orange man and his oligarch boots.
-
The war against America will be fought by poor American SOB's like myself before it reaches our allies.
We're all hoping it doesn't come to that, but the divisive nature of our current political climate is unprecedented... We're all a day away from never speaking to certain family members again. It's just fucking nuts what's going on.
People like to compare us to Nazi Germany, but it's nothing like that. Well, except Elon Musk. He's larping as a Nazi pretty openly right now, compete with Seig Heils. That's part of their plan to divide and conquer. Only I really think it'll follow our old motto, and we will simply all fall.
-
I don't think Israel would care. Or the USA
-
Germany is the 2nd / 3rd largest contributor with about €15 billion. And you bring up 5000 helmets? That’s just pathetic and false.
Also, make sure to use per capita numbers.
-
Definitely not. The orange man and the US in general is equal in my eyes to Russia. A bad, backwards place I would fight if it tried to thrust its diseased member into my current life and surroundings.
Instead, I’d give a lot for what I have now: The relative safety and social progress, as well as the socialist elements such as our guaranteed welfare for everyone without gotchas or requirements, the general atmosphere of acceptance towards sexual and gender minorities etc.
A lot of reasons to “throw my life away”. The life wouldn’t be worth much if I couldn’t be myself, if I couldn’t survive and thrive even when unable to work or function. So I’d rather go fighting for those as opposed to bending over to get fucked either way.
