I just did a quick check. This year we're spending as much on equipment for the nuclear deterrent program as we are on all other equipment purchases for the Army, Airforce and Navy together. Or another metric is that the nuclear deterrent costs as much as the entire British Army right now. We...

Apparently It would only be around $200 billion or so, which the US has already spent on the war. Then again it would cost money to travel through it, and would be slower, so all in all it's not great economics. Also thats for a Panama canal sized option which won't even allow the large tankers...

Why? Very little European shipping doesn't go through the straights. Asia is the area most effected. We're suffering mostly because closing the straights affects global supply rather than ours directly. And at this point I think it's nearly certain that Trump has now established the Straights...

If they've gone through Ukraine, Poland, Germany and France then we're not going to be holding out either. And while you fear monger about nonsense we have starved the parts of the armed forces that do any work of funding for an invisible white elephant.

The nuclear deterrent is the biggest waste on money in the budget. Dropping that would let us buy new tanks more than once every 40 years. Or more surfacr ships instead of boats whose entire purpose is to be invisible and do nothing.

You really can't understand written word can you? I can't tell if it's ironic or appropriate that someone as dim as you is employed changing lightbulbs. If you read it again I didn't say it was unlikely they'd put troops on the ground in those quotes, I said the opposite.

He's workshoping his responses to see which are the most popular. Then he'll pretend he never planned on Regime Change/Nuclear materials recovery/Kharg Island/Owning Iranian Oil/Opening the straights of Homuz/Fixing his water pressure for his shower. Id be surprised if he doesn't try deploying...

The Israeli/US attacks have changed the regime for the worse, the IRGC is now in more control. The local nations have no incentive to get involved. Unlike the US and us they're within striking distance and Iran can and will wreck any nearby nations infrastructure. Why invade a neighbour when...

If those diets work, yes.* But fad diets like Atkins and the carnivore diet generally don't work. Any fad diet will typically work for a short while, but then stop working as the unrealistic meal plans, side effects and high costs mean people fall off the diet. From memory Atkins (and let's...

But back to the topic, there is no longer term data to show what impact the carnivore diet has on your health, but the Atkins diet, a less extreme version of it, showed a 5% increase in heart attacks for women in one very large scale study...

Something tells me you haven't read more than his YouTube channel. An orthopedic surgeon who gave up his license because he was going to lose it for 'incompetence to practice'. Not just bad practice but flat incompetence, wow.

Youre right, he was on probation for improper prescription of controlled substances.

Wasn't his medical license revoked for reusing needles?

'Ultra processed food' is a desperate attempt to define a set of rules that meet your preconceptions and pretend it's a law of nature. It adds nothing that saying junk food doesn't already cover.

Processing is good for food, raw milk kills. Beer is quite nice. The reason people feel better on these diets is they reduce calories and cut out junk food. It's the same with all fad diets, they work as long as you follow the insanely strict rules and when you fall off the unrealistic plan...

Fear the sunflower.

He's way out there on medical stuff. He went off to Russia to try to come off prescription meds and ended up in a coma in ICU for a month. Listening to him on healthcare is like asking the CEO of OceanGate for destination tourism suggestions.

@Koolpc Ive found your old user account. The Carnivore diet came up and I said it's a load of nonsense, essentially a manosphere version of the grapefruit diet. For those that aren't familiar the carnivore diet involves cutting out all carbs and fruits/veg. Similar to the Atkins diet but more...

There is a variation of the Atkins diet that has evidence behind it. But that is incredibly strict and prescribed by dieticians. The 'carnivore diet' as marketed on random podcasts is just a male version of the grapefruit diet or every other fad diet. But maybe I'm wrong, I could be thinking...

Aren't you the Muppet who couldn't even recognise the rifle you claim to have used in the Army? Jog on back to Specsavers.
