The mayor of my city who won big in the national elections wants to do big austerity measures on a national level because they are ‘much needed’ (read: will only target working class people).
That same mayor is now saying our city’s port needs an military air defense system because uhhhh reasons.
Everyday the Russian army is one step further in Ukraine therefore one step closer to Belgium
That’s true. And with today’s news they found out that Belgium, HQ to NATO, EU, several other military institutions and the second largest port in Europe responsible for a lot of military transport into the continent, has no air defense system.
Noticed that when looking at NATO country armies, y’all are literally living on the fact you won’t fight someone who can strike back
Yeah and Turkey’s active and reserve personnel make up 1/6th of the total NATO force. Even more if you exclude the US. And to say Turkey is a reliable ally for the West is doubtful lol.
White people, want wars, but don’t want to fight them
Which is funny because our party is on track to become the biggest in the city. Imagine a marxist party in charge of a city with a missle defense system. CIA would never.
