When this is over, the western part of NATO will never be the same. Spain, England, France and Italy have sold us out, as they too often have a history of doing. Eastern European nations are the heart of NATO. They spend money on defense, know how to fight and love the US.
France particularly deserves fault and blame. From supporting China and Russia at the UN to denying Americans overflight rights, they’re doing what they’ve always done - showing weakness, while cutting deals with terrorists. (The reason the US has a Marine Corps and Navy is unlike France, we refused to pay a ransom to the Barbary Pirates. France is always happy to cut a deal.)
Wars have unintended consequences as nations show their true colors.
NATO will never be the same, and Western European weakness and acquiescence is the cause.

@rlucia @AriFleischer Tell me you are ignorant without saying it.

NATO is not the sheriff of the world.
Neither the U.S. or Israel
UN is, eventually.
The U.S. has been dragged by Israel into this adventure, and decided that was better this way than directing the whole world against Iran.
You can trust NATO, if you are menaced by Iran or attacked by them. You cannot trust NATO on following you in this illegal carnage.
English
@rlucia @AriFleischer If you would pay attention, the US told the world.
Alleged??? Wrongdoing? Iran was the world sponsor of terror. Making nuclear weapons and would use them for terror. Are you really that stupid or are you just an anti-American voice piece for terrorists.
Cannot trust NATO.

@SecWar Said from a secretary of war ain’t that reassuring, did you even count the innocent dead bodies you left behind?
Start counting from Minab school.

The tomb is empty. The promise is fulfilled. Through His sacrifice, we are redeemed.

NATO can’t be an accomplice, NATO is an ally agreement.
USA and Israel started an illegal war, NATO allies can’t and won’t fall into this abomination.
If USA and Israel obtained a green flag from UN to eradicate Iran’s islamic dictatorship, things would have been quite different.
Unluckily in the last years Israel demonstrated they don’t care a shit about UN, and the U.S. demonstrated they don’t care a shit about “friends” and the UN: menacing to “take” Denmark territories and raising and imposing tariffs on EU.
What the f***k do the U.S. expect after treating friends and international partners that way?
English
NATO doesn’t say that each member state must consult with the alliance before engaging in war anywhere.
Common sense says that when a NATO member goes to war, other members don’t give a hand to the other side.
Excuse that Europeans can shut down their airspace or bases to America in wars they disagree with means America can reciprocate by choosing which European wars US decides to stand on the side of Europe or on that of its adversaries.
BTW, Ukraine is not NATO and US involvement in defending it has been common sense. Not helping out in defense has also been a choice that I disagree with, but that doesn’t amount to giving Russia a hand against Ukraine.
NATO’s France, Spain and Islamist Turkey have been active on Islamist Iran’s side. That’s not how military alliances work.

@kencooper83yah1 @rlucia @AriFleischer The same true friend that wanted to take Greenland which is from Denmark, that put Tariffs on everything, that said our soldiers hide in the back in Iraq and Afghanistan, that kept saying we are weak and worthless. That true friend?

@YosephHaddad Western values do not include restoring and applying death penalty.
Wash your mouth before talking about what a western democracy truly is: unluckily Israel has turned up to become yet another rogue theocratic regime of the Middle East.

זה דבר מטורף שבימים האלה כשצה"ל וצבא ארה"ב נלחמים במשטר האיראני שמסכן את העולם כולו- מדינות גדולות באירופה קוראות לנו לעצור ומנסות לפגוע במאמץ המלחמתי בזמן שבעולם הערבי מדינות המפרץ קוראות ללכת עד הסוף ולהפיל את המשטר.
ערוצי טלוויזיה בעולם המערבי מסקרים בעוינות ומפעילים לחץ להגיע להפסקת אש וברשתות הערביות מתלהבים מהעוצמה הישראלית. זה פשוט לא נתפס!
המערב מעולם לא היה חלש יותר וכנוע יותר מהיום. הם לא מבינים את המזרח התיכון וזו בעיה קשה כי המזרח התיכון כובש אותם מבפנים ולא רחוק היום שזה יתהפך עליהם.
זו הסיבה שתמיד אמרתי שנכון, זה יתרון שאנחנו מדינה מערבית אבל חייבים לזכור תמיד שאנחנו במזרח התיכון ולאזן ביניהם- מה לעשות שפה יש חוקים אחרים ושפה אחרת!
ואנחנו נמשיך להיות מדינה מתקדמת ומשגשגת לפי ערכי המערב, ובמקביל מעצמה מזרח תיכונית קטלנית לפי חוקי המזרח התיכון!

@kencooper83yah1 @AriFleischer When Europe doesn’t bend to U.S. will, it is seen as failing continent…by the U.S.
The thing is that U.S. boss is f***ng up everything for clear economic interests of its entourage and its lobbyists, which I’m not sure are aligned with the interests of American people.
English
@rlucia @AriFleischer And obviously not reliable! Most Americans have lost what respect we had for Europe. It is now quite clear Europe is a failing continent and maybe it is best for a world reset of allies and partnerships.
English
Maybe just maybe we expect our long time “allies” to help themselves. We did not ask for help bombing or participating in this war but we did expect to rely on our allies to allow us to use bases and airfields. This is where we as Americans were betrayed by many of our so called allies. Who cares whether it’s NATO or not! True friends are shown in times of need.

@HenMazzig Why don’t they just send units to withdraw Israelis from illegal settlements and relocate them into Israel?
That would turn out to be way more effective.
English
This must be condemned by everyone.
There is never an excuse for political violence (terrorism), and it is even more disgusting when it’s done during a war.
The IDF has announced that they will send more units to the West Bank to stop the violence against Palestinians.
English
Jesus Christ, why the fuck did you ever start this war without any, any, any coordination with NATO and UN?
It is an illegal and unjust war against Iranian people, those living their lives.
Iranian regime is a bunch of butchers, yet behaving like them is no excuse.
You don’t become a beast just because you want to kill beasts.

Europe - Wake up!
What’s happening here today could happen to you tomorrow if you choose to continue behaving naively.

@piersmorgan Lying about what, exactly? Military just don’t publish everything about their weapons, most…all of them. Neither Iran.
English
So not only has Iran brazenly lied about its ballistic missile range capacity, but this means it can probably hit the UK with them - and we have zero, I repeat ZERO, defence against these missiles. Very worrying.
Mario Nawfal@MarioNawfal
🇮🇷🇺🇸🇬🇧 Iran just proved its missiles can reach far beyond the Middle East Iran fired two intermediate-range ballistic missiles at Diego Garcia, a joint U.S.-UK military base sitting 4,000 kilometers away in the middle of the Indian Ocean. Neither hit the base, but the message landed harder than any warhead could. Tehran has always publicly claimed its missile range tops out at 2,000 km. This strike attempt doubles that number overnight. The Khorramshahr-4 that likely carried out the attack can also deliver cluster warheads, the same munitions that have been devastating Israeli cities for three weeks. Look at the map. A 4,000 km range from Tehran draws a circle that reaches Paris, London, and most of Europe. Every NATO capital that thought this war was a distant Middle Eastern problem just realized Iranian missiles could theoretically reach their doorstep. Source: @sentdefender WSJ

Scusi ma lei cosa si aspettava da un soggetto del genere?

@pbecchi Certamente, nel quesito mettiamoci pure: “Vuoi tu che qualunque nazione possa invadere, bombardare e annettere stati stranieri sovrani ma con una forza militare nettamente inferiore?”
Sai com’è, così visto che ci siamo mettiamo pure in chiaro le cose eh.

Da quando c'è la guerra in Ukraina NON COMPRIAMO GAS RUSSO, ma da Norvegia, USA e Qatar. Il Qatar ha fernato la produzione di gas. Il costo oggi del gas LNG è balzato a 55 euro per MWh. Se riaprissimo il gasodotto di Gazprom che arriva a Trieste, il costo sarebbe sui 10 euro per MWh. Facciamo un referendum: "Vuoi comprare Gas russo che costa 5 volte meno ?"

GiovanniZibordi@GiovanniZibordi
il gas oggi quota 55 euro per MWh in europa all'ingrosso perchè una parte viene dal Qatar che ha sospeso la produzione Con Gazprom il prezzo era sui 15 euro per MWh e anche 10 euro ----------------------- Gemini if we look at the actual commodity costs reported by ARERA and GME for the pre-crisis period, the numbers were indeed much lower. When you look at the 2019-2020 period, the prices were not just below €20/MWh—they hit historic lows that translate to well under $10/MMBtu. Pre-2021 Prices (ARERA/GME Data) In 2020, due to the pandemic and a global supply glut, the Italian wholesale gas price (PSV - Punto di Scambio Virtuale) averaged: Price: €10.55/MWh MMBtu Conversion: Approximately $3.30 – $3.80/MMBtu (depending on the exchange rate). Even in 2019, a more "normal" pre-pandemic year, the average price at the Italian border was around €18–€20/MWh, which is roughly $6.00 – $6.50/MMBtu. The Gazprom Pipeline "Discount" The estimated price for Gazprom gas under long-term contracts for Italy (Eni) was structurally linked to these low hub prices or oil-indexed formulas. Pre-2021: You were often paying between $5 and $8 per MMBtu. The 2026 Context: Today’s price of €54.66/MWh converts to roughly $17.50/MMBtu.

@DrJamal11 @Angrylebanese This is the land of Palestine, sadly, enslaved by Israel.
English
Imagine you’re a Palestinian, sitting outside your home, trying to find a moment of peace in a place your family has lived for generations.
Suddenly, Israeli settlers appear, assaulting you, backed by the army.
A scene that is hard to put into words.
