Unilateral? I do not think that word means what he thinks it means.

Maybe France should have working on actually building what the Aussies paid for...

I figure that could just be an ESL issue, but then maybe he shouldn't be commenting in English.

That's a fake, staged problem to spark off conflict.

The US has Europe under military occupation with thousands of soldiers and hundreds of nuclear bombs currently deployed inside Europe. So Europe doesn't really count for anything. Learn from the Afghans, Europeans.

You mean they're going to fuck off, and leave millions of dollars of military equipment behind for the Europeans to use?

It won't take country boy tactics for the European colonies to throw off the GAE. They can do it purely bureaucratically, and the current regime seems to be pushing for it. Without US support, Germany will be forced to remilitarize, and that by itself will allow the German spirit to reemerge.

the German spirit to reemerge.

As a German: never going to happen.

We've had campaign after campaign of "soldiers are far-right extremists". We've had multiple female diversity-hire defense ministers who turned our military into a joke. Germany is about to very likely elect a far-left Government of socialists, eco socialists and communists.

They're going to fill the military with diversity hires and then wonder why Muslim soldiers would rather obey their imam than the chain of command when push comes to shove.

When you look at the differences between the American made sub and the French sub, its obvious why Australia went with the American sub. How the fuck France even sold those lemons to Australia is beyond the pale. US subs cost half as much, have 40 tubes for cruise missiles and can run for 30 years without refueling, while the French subs cost twice as much, requires fueling every 80 days and has no tubes for cruise missiles.

Australia is canceling their order for French diesel subs in favor of US nuclear subs, so France is pissed off they won't get the billions of dollars they would have been paid.

"Female masters"

Bruh, women are barely smart enough to cheat without getting caught. You really think there is a group of them somewhere masterminding all this shit?
