The ineffectuality of the missiles aside, if this truly happened this is an act of agression against His Britannic Majesty's Dominions, so all moral and, importantly, legal scrupals His Majesty's Government in the United Kingdom have melt away.

According to the Wall Street Journal, citing multiple U.S. officials, Iran has targeted the joint U.S.-UK base at Diego Garcia in the Indian Ocean with two intermediate-range ballistic missiles (IRBM). According to the report, one missile failed in flight whilst the other was

@thephilippics Which made us poorer and weaker, so clearly you have less mental acuity than a baby gibbon

This is why I supported Brexit.
The EU was how the British elite imagined they could maintain their global relevance, and why they long so desperately to return.

@ScottJenningsKY Apparently you are a threat to girls schools. Without "putting a nuke on it"
English
So - definitely a threat. Imminent, even. Put a nuke on it and you can see why Trump has been right about this all along.

@martin_saats @secretsofprivac Or companies and politicians preying on kids - aided by incels

This is the part of the age verification debate that more people are waking up to.
Not whether kids should be protected (they should).
Whether uploading your ID and face to access a weather app is a smart way to do it.

Now that Trump is considering leaving NATO — This is when… NATO Chief Mark Rutte told Europe…
"If anyone thinks here that the European Union or Europe as a whole can defend itself without the U.S., keep on dreaming. You can’t! We cant. We need each other.”

@BearFlagFan @bonchieredstate Its asymetric. Just like when you lost in Afghanistan and Vietnam.

@BearFlagFan @bonchieredstate All this war has done so far is show China how weak US is

I'm not sure what's funnier.
David believing the Europeans would actually put effort into their own defense, or that "blowing up runways" would do anything to stop the United States military in such a scenario.

@FloppingAces 1 drone reached a 99 square mile base. Hardly 9 11 where you yanks trained kamikaze pilots to crash into the Pentagon and you lost 3000 people

Europe’s performance in this shitshow is the real plot twist nobody saw coming.
“Not our war,” they whine from their cushy NATO umbrella, fingers firmly crossed behind their backs.
Sure,,,until Iranian drones start buzzing over Cyprus or the Strait of Hormuz turns into a parking

@SuitablePolitic Derek probably has never left USA except maybe a weekend in Mexico 🤣
English
Maybe that's because the EU has treated themselves as a geopolitical rival of the United States throughout both Trump terms and were closer to neutral than anything during Biden.
Or maybe it's the continual abandonment of anything that was once western values.
Or maybe...

@BearFlagFan @bonchieredstate The island is beyond the strait (you asshat)

@BearFlagFan @bonchieredstate How are the wasp class LCDs getting to Kharg, are they going to teleport past Hormuz? Or just run the gauntlet? You would think that the Department of War and Special Military Operations might have moved some into position before they attacked Iran, now it seems a bit late
English
@bonchieredstate If there’s an invasion on Kharg, it will likely come from an MEF that will arrive on Wasp-class LCDs (which are mini-carriers) via landing craft, V22 Osprey’s and helicopters, with CAS from F-35s and Harriers, all of which can land and take off vertically.

@DaveyProckett @TroyMclure22 @bonchieredstate Noone will see the boats coming because satellites havent been invented yet

@TroyMclure22 @bonchieredstate Helicopters with 2000 mile range, really?
English
@AlexGodofsky Feel free to motor up and down in your speedboat inside the Hormuz kill box soaking up the incoming fire until the Iranians have run out of ammunition
English
An important factor in the Hormuz situation is that under maritime law Iran is not "allowed" to close the strait, doing so is an act of war by Iran against the flags of the ships attacked or interdicted, and the US is not responsible or at fault for Iran's actions.

@Rix6145 @johnkonrad @SecWar Enlisted for what - to drive a million Lebanese out of their homes, including Christians? You dumb pricks shouldnt bring religion into everything but if you do, at least be consistent

@NicoPerrino I agree there is an inherent tension between the concept of a nation state regulating what happens within its borders and things on the internet that are accessible everywhere but the State has the right and responsibility to try and protect its people, especially its children
English
@apsamuelson Yes, that was an abominable abandonment of principle, as I repeatedly shouted from the rooftops at the time.
English
The internet must be free. 4Chan is an American company with no assets in the UK. Its only content regulator is the First Amendment.
The Brits don’t get to colonize American companies operating out of America. See Declaration of Independence, American Revolution, etc.
