VoicesCanBe posted:I'm not gonna dismiss the possibility of nuclear war but I still don't think it happens. If France goes through with their "tripwire" force, Russia probably trips the wire, there's a brief outrage and demand for NATO escalation that goes nowhere, and then France quietly tried to pretend it never happened. All Russia has to do is use Wagner to bomb French troops to give Germany and US the smallest excuse not to react.

Starsfan posted:I think anyone in NATO can "invoke" article 5 over basically anything but ultimately it's up to the US and if they say "nope" then what is France going to do lol France has its own nuclear deterrent which is much more of a concern than a French Divison getting wiped and NATO getting involved

VoicesCanBe posted:The worst kept secret is that Article 5 is vague as hell and countries can freely ignore it without consequence. I think you take a small prestige hit when you turn down an ally's request for help. You can get it back pretty easily by holding a feast or going on a hunt or whatever.

Well like, they gave medals to anyone who accumulated 30 days flying time, including training, in the year after 9/11. The official description, eligibility, criteria, and history of the Article 5 NATO Medal for Operation EAGLE ASSIST. Operation EAGLE ASSIST began on 12 October 2001 following the North Atlantic Council’s decision on 4 October to take measures to implement Article 5 of the Washington Treaty. This was done following the terrorist attacks against the United States on 11 September 2001, and the mission’s aim was to assist US Forces to control North American airspace. The mission was deemed complete on 16 May 2002. Awarded to NAEW&C crews that have served thirty days continuous or accumulated service in the air space of United States of America and the air space of North America as tasked by NORAD between 12 October 2001 and 16 May 2002: Aircrew will accumulate one day’s service for the first sortie flown of any day in the Area of Operation; additional sorties flown on the same day receive no further credit. This requirement exists for support as well as combat aircraft, and support aircraft including tanker, airlift, and surveillance platforms.

DJJIB-DJDCT posted:SWASM, right? Nah it looks identical to that first NATO one, but with silver stripes on the ribbon, and no Article 5 bar. I got that + the Op Herrick participation trophy for going to Kandahar for two months. The ISAF one honestly feels like plastic compared to the real silver Herrick one, it's dull and doesn't polish up at all, totally mass produced nothing award Cookie Cutter has issued a correction as of 16:57 on Mar 20, 2024 |

The aim, a fundamental change in approach, will seek to channel any Russian invasion toward massive mobility hurdles in the form of bunkers likely stocked with reserves of mines, barbed wire, and materials for the construction of major anti-tank mobility traps such as dragon’s teeth. the baltics are ready

reminder one of the biggest reasons for calling this war genocidal is that Russians evacuate civilians from active warzones something that happens in every war ever unless you're doing stupid poo poo like telling all the political grandmas to throw Molotovs from their windows for reference Israel is purposely NOT removing civilians from the war zone and is actively dropping bombs on them where they live. And this is apparently NOT a genocide. So the liberals can say they're consistent.
