    He just refused help from Ukraine. Either he is demented, or he is just searching for justifications for pushing against who he consider the real enemy, Europe and Ukraine. Or both.

    He's such a dolt, that he sees getting help as admitting weakness, even when he needs it, and even when they are obviously better at it than we are.

    In this case, Zelensky was offering their excellent drone technology, and which has been kicking Russia's ass for weeks.

    But Trump turned it down saying the “last person we need help from is Zelensky." He's just spicy because Z refuses to surrender his country to a dictator just to make Trump look good.

    Quiet piggy! You don't have the cards. Also, have you ever said 'thank you'?

    “NATO faces a ‘very bad’ future if allies do not help,”

    That already happened when you threatened Canada and Greenland. NATO is no-longer top priority, cooperation around USA is.
    Example of that is the EU SAFE program, where also countries outside EU are participating like Norway Canada and Japan.
    https://defence-industry-space.ec.europa.eu/eu-defence-industry/safe-security-action-europe_en

    Another example from just this weekend, is the Nordic counsel, that had a meeting on arctic interests, with Canada, Norway, Sweden, Denmark and Iceland participating. Where all agreed on strategies for the defense of the Arctic region, and it was stressed that all supported the defense of Greenland.
    Another forum where USA is absent, despite also having arctic interests. But are unwelcome because of the threats against Greenland and Canada.

    So the very bad future is already here, and NATO countries are preparing to be able to defend themselves without USA.
    And this very bad future, is ONLY because of USA. USA has torn up hundreds of agreements with allies, and threatened with invasion, and is waging a trade war, and constantly threatening all sorts of bad things that will happen if we don't do as USA says.
    This is just another example, USA wants to force former allies into their illegal war against Iran. And is threatening consequences for not helping USA out of the mess they created.

    ”It’s only appropriate that people who are the beneficiaries of the Strait will help to make sure that nothing bad happens there,” Trump said.

    The most intelligent statement I have heard from Trump. What can rest of the world do to stop USA and Israel wage war in Iran?

    Maybe we should give Iran a piece of US territory like they are trying to give parts of Ukraine to Russia?

    Or we could charge him - not even the US, but Trump personally - a billion dollars per ally, plus another billion per ally for each week beyond whatever unreasonably short deadline he promises us the war will be over with?

    Seriously though, we need to phase out fossil fuels and we need to do it 20+ years ago (but now is good too). Sun beams can't be bent by despots' will.

    I've had a theory that Trump has never had a real friend. Like ever.

    Seeing how he treats allies during this administration is confirming that

    Just say yes, he will forget all about the Iran war in 3 days anyway thanks to dementia...

    That's actually how you handle folks with dementia. If they say the sky is purple, you agree and try to redirect them.

    Crucially though, and I cannot stress this enough, you should under no circumstances let them become president of the country with the world's most powerful military.

    Two weeks ago, he said he didn’t need anyone’s military support.

    Now he says, he needs everyone’s help otherwise NATO is at risk.

    I am not sure what it is now that he needs

    Update ‘a couple of hours later’: he is yet again saying he does not need help. Lol.

    He just wants to find a justification to ditch the money consuming NATO.

    He's been making beds with Putler Snd Winnie the Pooh and now they have a nice let's fuck this globe circle jerk thing going on.

    Just wait the moment when China takes over Taiwan and US will do absolutely nothing.

    All the three big babies get what they want. Almost.

    it's not Nato's job to fight offensive wars for the colonial expansion project of a genocidal aparthied.
    Netenyahu needs to bribe and blackmail many European governments like he did for Trump and US congress

    The only country to ever invoke Article 5 was the United States. As things stand there is no scenario whatsoever in which Europeans will once again agree to fight and die in a futile American war in the Middle East. Let the Americans sort out their own mess. Perhaps we should even consider trying to find a solution to resuscitate the world economy together with China, India, Iran and other involved parties in the region.

    I don't think they can even trigger article 5 this time around since they attacked first.

    It's a defensive pact, you can people to defend you not to join in a war you started.

    I'd very much welcome clarity. Just like with a cancer diagnosis, clarity gives new impetus for dealing with the threat.

    We don't have the resources nor man power to defeat Iran. Our total boots on the ground fighting force is less than 200k. And about 2/3 of that is stationed for home or base defense. So maybe 30k available for this war. It would take 10 times that to fully occupy Iran
