It's 3am in Israel, so we are in a bit of an information lull.Guys, the Iran political argument thread is THAT wayhttps://kiwifarms.st/threads/iran-c...s-debates-thread.240265/page-77#post-23963893
now get yo' ZOG bitchin' asses over there and leave us news watchers alone, y'all.
Pop over to the old EU Referendum site (now retired for obvious reasons) and poke around. I've linked a search for articles on the rapid reaction force. Richard North had a lot to say about military procurement in this country, none of it particularly approving. We've been a wreck in that regard for sixty years or more.
Yes. Vulcan was ahead of its time, design wise, but its mission profile was tied to the days before viable ICBMs, when the first strike expectation was that a high speed, high performance bomber would nip in to Russia as fast as possible, drop its bombs, and then try not to die on the way home. The moment it was possible to put a nuclear missile in a submarine, they were relegated to conventional bombing, a role to which they were not well suited at all. They were obsolete long before they were retired. Vulcan was only used in Operation Black Buck because the RAF had no other aircraft capable of flying the mission, but it pushed them well beyond their operational limits.
Oh believe me, it confuses us as well. The problem seems to be that Westminster is soaked in the trappings of Empire, and the City gives us an outsized influence over finance and commerce (nearly all maritime insurance still runs through London, for instance), so I suppose it affects the mind of anyone who spends enough time there. They want to decolonise everything now, seemingly working from the same belief that the UK is supremely powerful but in the opposite direction. It's all a bit silly.
The reason you cant afford a Navy is not because you arent an empire. If you spent half of what you spend on the NHS on the RN the fleet would be pretty decent. The Republic of Singapore Navy has 40 warships to the UKs 72, and they are a city state with a population smaller then greater Londons.
I wanted to just say "Mamdani and Mahmood" and leave it at that. A literal quran-sworn sandnigger is the mayor of New York City in a post-9/11 America.
I doubt this guy has actual info
No evidence of this khafir.
Is that why their nation's creation started with stealing Anglo-Iranian and Dutch Shell property? Because they weren't concerned with you?
One must imagine Muhammad happy
I like how Kent is shameless enough to use his dead wife as a shield in his resignation letter, even when very easily findable quotes like these exist.
Regardless of if he has info, it's such a bad take.
This guy does not give out the vibe of control mayne
He can't even keep control of his own wife
We’re using ordinance now, so….never lol
*just as the founding mothers intended. What are you, a bigot?!
