I am delighted to present a HORNETS 🐝 drone that I have dedicated to the entire NAFO community. I named the drone after the place we all know well, which is ridiculed, but from which we work so effectively for Ukraine, for freedom, democracy and justice: MOMS BASEMENT. 🫡

Ich möchte mich im Übrigen der Meinung dieser Russin anschließen

@daEdge1960 @Microinteracti1 I'm not so sure which of us needs to learn russian rather... 🤔

@RobEld75 @Microinteracti1 Good luck. I hope you can speak Chinese and/or Russian.

NATO’s 31 members will ‘have to reexamine’ whether they can still afford to have the USA as a partner. Let’s be honest about what is happening. The United States, under Trump, is actively supporting Russia. Blocking weapons to Ukraine. Pushing for a peace deal that rewards Moscow. Calling Putin a partner. Washington’s National Security Strategy no longer even identifies Russia as a threat. Russia is the only reason NATO exists. It has always been the only reason. And Washington is now on Russia’s side. So the question is not whether NATO can survive without America. The question is whether NATO can survive with it. And America has already started leaving. Rubio skipped the NATO foreign ministers meeting in December. Hegseth skipped the defense ministers meeting in February. Two top-level meetings in a row. It is rare for a US administration to miss even one.  They are not forgetting to show up. They are choosing not to. NATO noticed. NATO kept meeting. NATO kept working. Macron said it anyway. “No intimidation or threat will influence us, neither in Ukraine, nor in Greenland, nor anywhere else in the world.”  Sweden’s Prime Minister was blunter. “We will not allow ourselves to be blackmailed.” Good. Because NATO does not need permission. Thirty-one nations. Nearly a billion people. The world’s largest collective economy. NATO militaries hardened by four years of watching Russia bleed itself dry on NATO’s eastern doorstep. And here is what Today it is not the Russia of 2022. That Russia is gone. Ukraine shot it to pieces. Up to two million men lost. Elite units wiped out entirely. Equipment inventories so depleted that Russian forces are pulling tanks from Soviet-era storage and patching them together with parts that belong in museums. The most combat-capable military in NATO’s history is now facing the most degraded Russian army since the Second World War. NATO knows the enemy. It has watched it die in real time. America’s own Secretary of State called NATO allies “cowards” and the alliance a “paper tiger.”  This from a country that just spent a month bombing Iran and achieved nothing. A country with a $39 trillion debt, a democracy rated below Mexico by international observers, and a president whose first instinct after re-election was to call Vladimir Putin. Now look west from Washington. The Pacific. China. No NATO. No thirty-one allies who have trained together for 75 years, shared intelligence, and stood on the same walls. Just two oceans and a government that just told its only friends to go to hell. America without NATO is not a superpower. It is a large, indebted nation with no friends, two oceans, and China on the other side of one of them. NATO without Trump’s America is not weaker. It is stronger. Gandalv / @Microinteracti1

@daEdge1960 @Microinteracti1 LOL. Another one who thinks, NATO is about protecting Europe.

@RobEld75 @Microinteracti1 Are you really that stupid? Iran is against the western world, Europe included. If Europe is ok with a Nuclear Iran, and Iran being a Russian proxy in the Middle East, then Europe is indeed lost and there is no reason for the US to be in NATO at all.

@abraves277 @Studiothoe @Microinteracti1

@RobEld75 @Studiothoe @Microinteracti1 Yea all that matters in an outdated pre fall of Soviet Union. We can defend our shores take that to the bank. You all don’t need us right? We will see.

@daEdge1960 @Microinteracti1 Iran doesn’t want to nuke Europe, but the US. That’s hardly likely to change after the current campaign. So if the US is afraid and needs Europe’s help, it would be rather foolish of them to leave NATO, don’t you think?

@RobEld75 @Microinteracti1 Iranian rockets can reach Europe, not the US. If Europe won’t help or allow flyovers so the US can eliminate the country that has been responsible for more terrorism in the world than any other, you can deal with the consequences.

@daEdge1960 @Microinteracti1 Sure. Everything will be fine, Dave, Just keep going. 🙂

@RobEld75 @Microinteracti1 Good luck protecting Europe without the US. Better learn Russian and Chinese after the two of them carve you up.

@JosephJ03198940 @Microinteracti1

All those global operations has always been for the benefit of Europe, knowing the US can do what it needs to to anyone who threatens the US or our Allies... The US would not be a target at all if we were not there at all and if we were not there at all then who would be??? Europe is a like a spoiled brat that is about to find out how hard life can be once the adult cuts the cord. Your temper tantrums will have no effect on Russia and china.

The Artemis II astronauts, now suited up for launch, are headed to the launch pad. The crew includes NASA astronauts @Astro_Reid, @AstroVicGlover, and @Astro_Christina, and @CSA_ASC astronaut @Astro_Jeremy.

@dkbeck1 @abraves277 @Microinteracti1 facts matter.

@abraves277 @RobEld75 @Microinteracti1 Well let's ask somone who knows! Former Supreme Allied Commander Europe, Gen Alexus Grynkewich.

@Studiothoe @abraves277 @Microinteracti1 x.com/i/grok/share/0…

@abraves277 @RobEld75 @Microinteracti1 Fair point on the cost, that part’s real. But do you think the strategic reach and deterrence angle offsets some of it, or nah?

@abraves277 @Studiothoe @Microinteracti1 LOL. Sure. 😂 B-2 bombers can fly to Iran and back to the US – a total of 72 hours – without needing to refuel en route. Have you ever wondered why the Air Force deployed dozens of tanker aircraft to Europe ahead of the B-2 flights?

@Studiothoe @RobEld75 @Microinteracti1 lol we just got through flying 36 hour bombing runs to Iran. We have 11 aircraft carriers bases all over the world. Europe wants to be on their own with Russia so be it.

@Delvien_Vol @abraves277 @Microinteracti1 OK. So Nazi Germany, Mussolini’s fascist Italy and General Franco’s fascist Spain were part of the US Lend-Lease programme, just so they could fight against themselves? 🙃

@abraves277 @RobEld75 @Microinteracti1 Those bases used to matter to the US because Europe owed us money, but lend lease is paid off so it would be cheaper to move forces back to CONUS or more valuable moving them to other areas that are under threat like the pacific.

Currently, this is the only thing that saves my faith in humankind.

@abraves277 @Microinteracti1 🙃

@RobEld75 @Microinteracti1 Why do you think those bases benefit the US? They cost us money that could be spent here.

@FalkBernhard x.com/EYakoby/status…

We stand with Iran !!! Gegen die verbrecherischen Imperialisten und Zionisten, die innerhalb eines Monats (28.02. - 28.03.2026) insgesamt 1937 Menschen im Iran ermordet haben !!! Flagge zeigen im Zentrum der BRD-Finanzkapitalisten: Bruder Falk am Samstag, in Frankfurt am Main:

@Voiceof99563813 @Microinteracti1 LOL. You apparently have no idea how important these bases are to the US. 😄

@RobEld75 @Microinteracti1 If the US leaves NATO, it’s because it doesn’t respect the nations in NATO, so why would it flinch at continuing to keep its bases intact against a hostile enemy?

@and_rayn @AVP82796731 @Microinteracti1

@AVP82796731 @RobEld75 @Microinteracti1 Agree I just think it would be interesting to watch them try to forcibly evict US when they can't even sail their own ships.🤣🤣

@Voiceof99563813 @Microinteracti1 It’s not about “taking” those bases. If the U.S. leaves NATO, it won’t be able to use those bases anymore. No more overflight rights for U.S. military aircraft, no more energy supplies to the bases, etc. Simple.

@RobEld75 @Microinteracti1 Who’s gonna take them?

@AVP82796731 @Syrah_Shiraz @Microinteracti1 Sure Ivan.

@RobEld75 @Syrah_Shiraz @Microinteracti1 Please leave. Look after yourselves. First look after Ukraine. U.S. bases in Europe were defending Europe. You don’t need that defence now. Go for it!👍👍.
