The number of bases shows that the US have continued to treat Russia as the enemy. If Trump were Putin’s puppet the military would have staged a coup.
Man, I’ve read all of your comments. You sound like a young US veteran who lapped up the cool aid.
Military prowess is one thing. The yanks key role is to be a deterrent force. The forward bases and carrier groups, are all part of a logistics network to allow for rapid response in case of (mostly article 5).
It is not a standard base or pre deployment for an attack. It would be the most foolish thing they can do, and if they did it, they would seriously damage reputation, strategic positioning, not to mention lose key assets, key allies and troop morale.
To give you some counter koolaid: the yanks haven’t won a war since Japan and they needed a nuke for that. All other victories were allied with wait for it… European nations.
All the yanks and especially under Drunk Pete are good at, is hi tech hit and runs like Iran and Venezuela.
A US attack on EU would basically instantly make a USE, military and everything, and they would (give them some time) bomb DC and make sure that sick pedophile shoots himself in the bunker.
A country can’t conquer a state. That’s the number one argument against Russia, that they are going to conquer Ukraine.
Regime changes are ok, or splitting countries. The US has reached their goals.
It’s only Europe that ignores American war crimes. The rest of the world woudn’t mind western infighting.
If they conquer Europe they would own the assets.
Troop morale of European troops would be the only real disadvantage. Now they are willing to fight Russia to defend their freedom. That won’t happen if they are conquered.
I don’t follow the reasoning here…
The US military must see Russia as an enemy. If Putin controls Trump, how could they accept Trump as the supreme commander? They must have heard the rumors, researched the relationship with the help of CIA and other agencies. They were recently all in a room with Trump on a military base. They had the opportunity to arrest him and nobody could have prevented it. They haven’t which suggest to me that the Putin connection is a distraction.
All those bases were built in the decades after the 2nd world war, not by Donnie.
My primary argument is that the military still treats Russia as a main enemy. Donnie’s influence on those bases doesn’t matter.
They haven’t closed the bases. If Russia starts an invasion they will defend. If Russia takes over their leadership they will defend.
They will defend their bases for sure. Putin won’t even attack those.
But if there was an article 5 invoked today by say Poland, I highly doubt the USA would honour it.
Why? The US has fought to expand Nato to that point. Why give it up? Why support Ukraine if it doesn’t matter? All the loans will be gone if Russia wins.
Poland is among the countries that should split from the EU according to Trump. That makes only sense with strong US support.
The fear of abandonment is only there to justify the massive military spending. Nobody asks why we really need it.
