Interesting alternative historical facts. They are actually pretending the Germans wanted the expansion of Nato.

I love this phrase. " If we are not prepared to antagonise the Russians when they are weak?" What fuckin shit.

I’m not sure if this makes sense to you but… it may be because the site’s administrator may have set its images (on the server hosting the website) from being directly accessed via the URL.

Hot-linking is direct access of media (images, videos, etc) via a URL without visiting the actual website.

"Coalition of the Willing talks failed"

The European Union’s top diplomat said the latest Coalition of the Willing talks failed to provide clarity on how the operation would work.

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/world-news/ ... -news5292/

Seeing that everyone is afraid to enter the meat-grinding arena, I guess it remains the Coalition of the Un-Willing!

From the same link further down…

“Zelensky requests 10 more Patriot systems”

Damn… there must be a military shopping website he visits and he then clicks on “Add to shopping cart” followed by “Checkout” and then when it comes to payment he selects from the menu “Care of…”

[US] [Britain] [France] [Germany] [EU] [NATO]

Btw, in case you’re wondering, a Patriot system with a full batch of missiles costs around a trillion dollars so that’s a $10 trillion invoice!

I wonder if unkie Trump will be dumb enough to pick up the tab!

ZeShitSki might as well request everyone’s militaries to come in and do the fighting for him!

Oh wait… the coalition of the unwilling isn’t up to the task!

I think you're getting your billions and trillions mixed up.

The entire US annual defence budget is currently something like $900 billion. (a trillion being a thousand billion)

It depends on the model but I believe a battery of 4 Patriot launchers with missiles comes in at something like $500 million. Chickenfeed. :lol:

Yes sorry, I meant billion.

I looked around and the price with a bunch of missiles is between 1 and 1.2 billion.

You forgot that he wants 10 of them! :)

The irony is that in all the videos I’ve seen of the Ukraine, I have yet to spot a building that is worth more than $50K so I think it’ll be cheaper letting the buildings get hit than protecting them with such expenses missiles!
