Dear Britain,
Fellow jilted Honda faithful here. Can we get a little more Soichiro and a little less Toyota? I grew up with a poster of the NSX salivating over what I thought was the best car ever in the 90s. I grow up, Acura stiffs me on the terms of a warranty on a TSX with 22K on the clock, leaving a bad taste in my mouth. I do…
Hey, it’s real stock car racing for once. V8 rwd Camry my ass.
Braaap! Braaap! Brawwaaaap! This is so so good and a nice change of pace from the usual American V8 music I make in my driveway.
“Sweden is a rich country that generally likes the US” - debatable. Have you ever spent more than a few months living and working in Europe? We Americans are viewed just as much the bogeyman as the Russians. Having allies is great, but a military alliance should be defined, aka, have a start and an end point after…
The question that was asked with that war was can Islamic societies live at peace with themselves and their neighbors. Can such a peace be imposed at gunpoint? The answer as we’ve seen in Iraq and Afghanistan is pretty clear. The conflicts were worth it as an example of how the West must conduct its defense against…
I just love being lectured by Europeans about how we need to emulate their social spending and domestic policies apropos of nothing while we are their aegis. It’s freaking ridiculous. Were you in Afghanistan at all? Have you seen some of these “militaries” prosecute a maneuver fight? Jesus fucking christ. I have no…
The time to stop playing world policeman has to start soon. At least in the Middle East we were answering the question “Can Islam live with itself and others peacefully?” and got resolution on it. This is volunteering to fight on behalf of peoples who don’t particularly like us and find it too inconvenient, risky, and…
It looks as if you’re right about it being a Russian video. That still doesn’t address any of the other points I made. Why should Americans spend blood and treasure defending Sweden, a neutral country? What interest does that serve?
Increased optempo for a NATO dog and pony = more $$ spent than would have ordinarily been spend for a normal deployment cycle. Seeing as how this is NATO the US is likely paying for more than its fair share of ammo and fuel.
Amen. The word for what we American soldiers have become for Europe is “Janissary.”
I understand foreign interests all too well. Washington’s farewell address makes for an enlightening read.
Sweden is neutral and has been historically neutral.
European defense should be in the hands and wallets of Europeans, not Americans.
I’m irate at the waste of US tax dollars.
There are more factors to war than just the gadgets and weaponry. There is the will and battlesong that fills the hearts of a nation’s soldiery; without which no war will be won. And then there is leadership with clear strategy and goals towards victory. And then there is the culture that provides a nation’s moral…
How much did this shindig cost the US? Did we gain anything from it? Are we really willing to commit our blood and kin to defend Finland and Sweden over a centuries old European territorial spat? How would that serve American interests? What precisely is there to gain here from an American perspective? Being treated…
Neutrality has served Sweden well for centuries. Neutrality has served Switzerland well for centuries. Shame we Americans can’t learn the same. Each set of allies taken on is a new set of enemies taken on. Woodrow Wilson poisoned us in 1917. How it is the interests of the United States willing to send men like me to…
Considering that communism has killed more than nazism it’s objectively worse. This is worse than you saying “Tonight, we’re all Nazis.”
