High time we stop buying weapons from the US. The only reason paying the wildly overpriced gear is to have them provide military support when needed. If that’s not happening… then it makes no sense spending that money. Build it locally or buy it from the cheapest supplier.
What allies? The US have none left… Well except for Russia and Hungary
Don’t forget Israel!
The Pentagon is doing less so that means we can reduce its funding, right?
It will give more support to Israel? Does it need support? I’m confused
What chance is there that this means the US defense budget can be cut?
If by “cut” you mean increased by 50%, sure.
Well, on the increasingly unlikely possibility that they are not increasing the budget to target American citizens, I hope other nations in the world know they have to dramatically increase their own defense spending.
In a significant shift to its security priorities, the US Department of Defense now considers security of the US homeland and Western Hemisphere - not China - as its primary concern
Does this mean the “Pacific Pivot” cope will finally stop and yanks will admit that Trump just wants to burn down all their alliances?
No shit sherlock.
Pentagon says they are out of NATO. NATO says “we know.”
They mean intellectually, right? We already see, thanks :)
Well yeah. Nobody is counting on you for shit anymore, because of the orange man toddler. We are rearming Europe as fast as is sensible. We still have that detaching from Russian energy thing going no.
