This thread is where all the takes from idiots (looking at you Armchair Warlord) and screenshots of twitter posts/youtube thumbnails go.

      this is penny change, in grand scheme of things, from american perspective. this has been strategic goal of american command for better part of last century, some rednecks yapping about muh taxes going abroad shouldn’t have influence on that

        Yeah they also seem to not understand we only get paid back for lend lease and loans of Ukraine wins. For some reason they don’t understand how loans work.

        I agree entirely with your point, although I’m not sure ‘taxation without representation’ should be the takeaway. I think expert knowledge can be weighted heavier than random voters, but ultimately, there does need to be general consent, otherwise ‘achieveing strategic goals’ can be used to justify some heinous shit!

          it’s their take, not mine, made even weaker if you consider that deep red states are mostly federal money holes (with exception of texas). as it happens, there is general consent, it’s only loud minority

    American cluster bombs have only 2% failure rate. Given that Ukrainian lands are full of ruSSian mines, could cluster bombs be used for demining fields? Sappers would have much less work to do with defusing only those 2% which failed to explode.
