Semper Shitpost Ubique

But you do if you're going up against parity powers who don't have nukes. American political elements are constantly agitating for war with Iran, for instance, and they have the conventional capabilities to humiliate the US military even if they can't win. It's all pure hubris.

When Iran bought the Pantsir, they also bought some EW stuff and tactical radars, and the Russians brought all sorts of EW stuff to Syria, presumably to read NATO’s mail, so don’t be surprised if they are much better at this than anyone expects.

The thing is that nearly everyone drumming for war right now are likely not going to have their own forces involved let alone themselves, so this doesn't seem "real" to the pundits either. I don't think it'll ever seem real until relations degrade enough to the point these guys (being either China or Russia) end up having to sink an entire American carrier group.

This isn't intended to be a "gotcha" question, but I'm genuinely curious on this take-- Do you think the Palestinians should cease resistance and their territories incorporated into Israel? If that's different, why not?

My favorite was the poster trying to dismiss those concerns by saying the far right is only 9% of the population. I guess that doesn't sound significant in electoral terms, but it's really significant if they have well armed paramilitaries.

I wonder what 9% of the Ukrainian population is, probably a really small number. Ukraine has like, what, ten guys in it right?

Only 10% of our population are in Nazi militias. Could be 100%, so in comparison, not so bad

Having just 1% of the population, 1/9th of the far right armed and willing would probably lead to an easy coup in ukraine.
