One of my Russian friends circa 2012 was telling me how Russia was actively trying to find a loophole in the purchase agreement to take it back. No idea how true that was/is, but do find it interesting

I only slightly exaggerate in saying that I am pretty sure that 1/25, 4/25, the aviation battalions, and the Alaskan ANG could take on any Russian expeditionary force they could muster to take Alaska at this point. Actually, that's not an exaggeration - I am pretty certain they could handle them without much problem.

Here come sham referendums in Alaska.


It's too bad for Russia that 97.9% of the people of Kaliningrad already voted to leave Russia and join Czechia. The territory of Kralovec is undergoing a process right now to become fully integrated with Czechia.







In particular, I really admire the Czechs' determination to build the Beer Stream 2 pipeline to ensure that the people of Kralovec have a consistent supply of delicious Czech beer. The hats and yellow shirts that read "Make Kralovec Czech Again" are very inspiring.

You can read more details about the new Czech territory at their website: https://visitkralovec.cz/ or you can follow them on Twitter at @KralovecCzechia.

It's so awesome that the people of Kaliningrad were able to be free of Russia and become annexed by Czechia.

Did you all see that today? Maybe that is why Erdogan and Putin were walking arm and arm at that summit with Erdogan sporting a shite-eating grin. Putin signaled he'd let him be the savior to the west that tries to negotiate peace when Putin was ready.

Who is saying that? Who specifically said we should sacrifice Americans?

How strategic does a location have to be before it’s worth contributing to its defense?

Can the “strategic” portions of a location be intangible or do they have to be related to resources?

Does it have to be “ours”?

Can the strategic value of an area necessitate our involvement even when it isn’t ours?

Would you defend Taiwan?

You predicted that there would be catastrophic food shortages this year, homie. Well, guess what, frickface, it's harvest season, and crop prices are still steady...exactly as I told you would happen about four months ago when anyone with a half brain knew to look at futures prices to get a sense of what was actually going to happen with commodity prices and not listen to some period bleed Ole Miss fan who is scared of the sound of his own farts.

It's not Russia's either. So quit trying to give it them.

Going out on a limb here, but this is likely how you got the DM to stay out of the thread.
