It would also behoove American officials not to call their allies "motherfuckers". Funny how the Trump admin never refers to the Russians negatively.

As well as reading the North Atlantic Treaty & Article Six, people also need to read a history book. - In 1973 European allies mostly refused landing and overflight rights for the US airlift to Israel - In 1986 Italy, France and Spain refused overflight rights to the Reagan admin during the bombing of Libya - In 2003 many Europeans broke with the Bush admin over Iraq. France, Germany & Belgium blocked NATO planning; Turkey refused the use of its bases. - In 2011 Germany stayed out of the Libya war The current anger at Europe is rooted in a much larger transatlantic rupture. European allies have lost confidence in US judgment and decision-making under this administration; the situation would probably be different if this was seen as a necessary war to stave off an Iranian nuclear weapon. That loss of confidence & trust will have wider repercussions. I worry what it means for a crisis over Taiwan, for instance. It's hard to imagine effective US-Europe co-ordination if a war were to break out while transatlantic relations are at such a low ebb.

@gerardtbaker The English in fact. However, the only reason Americans speak English is because the government voted by one vote to use it instead of German.
English is spoken Worldwide because of that vote all those years ago.

Everyone in America would be speaking Dutch, French or Spanish if not for the British. Am I doing this right?

The whole Iran war is looking more and more like a gimmick to drop energy sanctions on Russia and pressure Europeans to do the same. A war to make Russia’s much larger war easier and possible to sustain.

The Monarchy died with The Queen.
Charles needs to step down if he can't and won't carry out his state duties.
If William doesn't want to be King then pass it to making Princess Anne as Queen.
Anything but this. What a disaster.

His excuse that Dublin was too far from his home is just not credible. More likely he came in, took one look around at the planning and infrastructure dysfunction and said, feck this for an albatross, I'm outta here. @john_mcguirk .

In Iran, the US-Israeli axis is seeking to replicate the campaign of protracted state destruction it initiated in Syria in 2012, but in accelerated fashion.
Israel recognizes regime change is impossible at this juncture, so it's working to obliterate the industrial and knowledge base that enabled Iran to survive under sanctions.
Its military-intelligence apparatus hopes that in a year or so, Iran will have become so impoverished, and so unable to provide for its growing population, that masses of Iranians will riot, or an armed insurgency will erupt inside the country which it can exploit, as the West did in Syria.
Because Trump has no strategy, the US military now functions as Israel's proxy, bombing medical institutes, desalination plants, infrastructure, oil depots, steel factories, and entire city blocks "back to the stone age."
The US campaign in Iran is a frightening realization of the longstanding, bipartisan policy of financial terrorism that has seen Washington place over 1/3 of the world's population under sanctions, forcing hundreds of millions of people from middle class status into poverty, hollowing out once vibrant communities, shattering families and producing endless waves of migration.
The plague the US-Israeli axis is attempting to impose on Iran, and the attendant global economic collapse that follows, will be the defining chapter in the history of post-war American power.
If Iran retains its sovereignty, that chapter will be a final one – and a relief for the global majority.

Britain has been a Christian nation for over 1,400 years.
The title Defender of the Faith isn’t symbolic, it carries weight.
Yet this Easter, there’s silence.
To overlook the faith of the nation at its most sacred time is a real bad look.

I wish Americans (and pro Russians) would remember - the British won the battle of Britain (with a coalition of international pilots) and staved off invasion - long before the US or USSR joined the side of the allies.

Excellent piece by @StevenErlanger . Ireland needs to start thinking much more seriously about the future of European defence in what may become radically new transatlantic circumstances.
