Hard to believe that humans are about to be visiting the moon again for the first time in my life. We are such experts at making a mess of things here on earth, but every now and then we do something truly impressive.

@WarMonitor3 There's a version of the US that the world hasn't seen in many decades. The Puritanical, Calvanist, Old Testament version. It only comes out when things get existential. Is it time?

It's very clear Trump is trying to scare the regime into submission by turning his madman routine up to 100. I don't necessarily believe he will go there, so I will hold my reaction until the deadline hits tonight. These threats are not going to work. This regime will happily rule over ashes as long as they rule. Their madness can't be matched. Trump also needs to realise that there has NOT been a regime change, because half of the shia islamic freaks are still in power. They need to be the targets, along with the entire basiji power structure. Only weeks ago he stopped Israel from targeting South Pars. He wouldn't have done that if he genuinely meant anything in this rant. He says what he wants his enemy to believe, not necessarily what he ends up doing.

The pulse of the Iran war is Brent crude price. I stopped doing chart patterns years ago. Trend and volume are far more reliable. However, I'm going to indulge for old-time's sake. This is a classic ascending triangle pattern. Bullish.

@giovaUg @_HenryBolton We disagree on what the terms of our relationship should be. On who has more leverage, provides the most value to the other. The only way to settle that is to find out.

@_HenryBolton Perhaps, but it’s also clear that many Europeans here have a delusional understanding of their circumstances and place in the world. In the end we disagree about who is more important to whom, so let’s run the experiment and let reality be the arbiter.

The lack of knowledge amongst many Americans here on X when it comes to the last 120 years of European history is worrying. Hollywood rewriting historical events, too much MAGA nationalist hubris and an insufficiently broad education are the apparent reasons. I’ve huge respect for the USA and am honoured to have spent time in Washington DC - White House, State Dept. Pentagon etc - and 27 months in Helmand with the US Marines, but if you have the wrong information, you will make bad decisions, no matter how strong you are.

The value of Greenland is that America can shoot down incoming nuclear missiles, which also would protect Europe. For Europe to fight a war because America tried to shield them from Russian or Chinese nuclear missiles... would be very European.
Asylum Seaker@AsylumSeaker

@KulakMAGAMan @asc_kritias @ThomBrady5 Are you suggesting USA wants to use Greenland as a launchpad for a war of aggression? Naturally Europe would oppose it.

@SuitablePolitic Will they start selling crude in USD and at market price? That would instantly shift the pain to our next adversary China right after knocking Iran off the board.

I’ve been activated. Beyond my uniforms, it’s nice to have a small piece of home. It’s a 5x7 of my parents on their 50th anniversary with an inset of them as newlyweds. I’ll be busy but safe. I’m asking God for wisdom, humility, integrity and protection. If you think of us, please pray for my teammates and me. #WHIP #OpEpicFury

Europe has 4 options: 1.) cut a deal with America 2.) cut a deal with Russia 3.) cut a deal with China 4.) reindustrialize and remilitarize I don't really care what you decide to do. I love Europe and want it to be strong. But you need to live in reality, know your options.
Vulchan@asc_kritias

@ThomBrady5 When the US president implies he will invade territory controlled by a European state this is *not* antagonization? But it is when some European states opt to say "we will sit this one out" to a Middle Eastern war that has nothing to do with them? Is your account satirical?

@MalcontentmentT Add that to the "interesting" file, next to accusations from Iran that it was a diversion to steal the nearby enriched uranium... Wild and unfounded rumor, but interesting. And would be 100% epic if true.

Malcontent News@MalcontentmentT·
Why is no one talking about how the WSO is a full bird colonel? This is beyond unusual as most colonels in the USAF have moved into paper pushers roles. A colonel would be a wing commander (brigade for army) or in a similar senior role who would have deep operational knowledge. This is not a person you want in enemy hands. Even if their primary role was flying a desk, they would still maintain their competence as a WSO if that was connected to their role. Whether this was a vanity flight for bragging rights or a ribbon, or the mission was so sensitive it required them on it, the Pentagon cannot let a colonel fall into enemy hands. When you understand these dynamics, the urgency of the rescue makes sense.

Iran has made a bet that's paid off for 47 years: the US isn't willing to endure the economic pain that striking it would bring down. Two things changed that calculus: 1. US energy independence 2. The threat of nukes and long range delivery systems. Security > economics, always.

@RBeansTx @0hour1 We absolutely can. Trump will say that the law is unconstitutional, will just do it, and by the time the Supreme Court rules on it it's a fait accompli.

@FistedFoucault That's about the only path to staying relevant that Europe has. Unfortunately for you, the US and China are not likely to oblige.

My ideal scenario is for the Yanks and Chinks to slaughter each other over the period of 10 to 15 years while Festung Europa sits it out and sells everything to both sides over the course of the war.
