Trumps attack on Iran - 2026 edition

[Brigadier]

Trump knows he has gone in with no plan and has now nowhere to go with this.

This is what happens when the voters put someone in charge who has never been told "No" and been made to accept it.

Lets hope we dont get drafted, our entire hunter class nuclear submarines are all awaiting maintenance, upgrades and repairs. We havent got one that is operational. We have one ship that is limping along so we may need a lift over there if we get the call. We would need to borrow some ammo too as we are short on that oh and a few thousand troops that we are short on. What a state of affairs.

The British Indian Army had a million soldiers at its height.

An interesting read but firepower is not lacking, regime change can only happen with boots on the ground

No boots were needed in Hungary.

We should have stayed in the EU worked with our European allies to build a European army. Farage's friend over in Russia didn't like that idea though.

Whilst we have the USA safety umberella with NATO it would be a bad move. Who would be in control of a European army? The French, Brussels, Germany. Big NATO players would not want to hand over their input.

We can't rely on the US any more. Trump is insane and Hegseth has recently said things about the UK that no ally would say.

I suspect the European council would appointment a leader of an EU army.

Trump won't be around for long, the special relationship will be restored once he is out of the picture.

I assume you mean 26 not 56, democracy or a semblance of it is the difference

 

[blup]

We’ll need more than eleven but it’s a start

 

[warey4life]

It's just like a traitor like you to not want European unity.

The democrats are pretty pathetic at moment so I won't hold my breath. We might end up with JD Vance which won't be much of an improvement.

European unity exists within NATO, why would you think a European army would be better?

 

[SPLINE]

Go on Trump, Dance and Hegseth!

Deus vult!

NATO is dominated by US, which means the barmy Trump.

A friend of Putin, not a friend of European democracy.

An unreliable ally who is not committed to the defence of Europe.

We are Europeans.

We cannot depend of a fickle semi-detached supporter.

If US takes three years to join us, as usual, while a war rages on, there will not be much left.

See the difference?

No suit required.
