Then what are they? I've heard imminent attacks, nuclear program, regime change, preemptive strike to limit capability because Israel was going to provoke them, etc. Maybe all of it are the goals, and just poorly thought out. But the admin has not messaged it well at all. The message is different every day and between each person speaking.
The goal is to protect Israel and thats it.

If US warships are the only escorts then we need to "tax" every cargo ship and withhold a percentage of US funding from NATO. One way or another, they will pay.

Charlie Hebdo broke the French. They're scared to death of Aloha Snackbars now.

Yeah, we should have let a country that kills Americans, pays terrorism, is an actual dictatorship, and builds nukes with the very vocally clear goal of nuking enemies including the US would have been the better move. Good call, genius.
Funny how none of these same people complained when Obama was dropping bombs all over the place with reckless abandon.

Once it is safe and escorts are no longer needed, we will be there. Nice. Thanks.
I have zero problem with leaving NATO and forcing Europe to cut their social programs for defense spending.

So we can now call France a blister. Showing up after the work is done.
Worked with someone who was like that…avoided the real work so we called him blister.

Yes, because that person presumably agreed to work then didn't. You guys are acting like Trump built some coalition, France is part of it and now they're backing out.
France isn't part of this. I wouldn't expect them to do anything that doesn't benefit France.

I truly can’t figure out if this board wants the transatlantic alliance to end or not.
It’s like we broke up with our girlfriend but continue posting shite about her for a year.
We set these wheels in motion & Trumpism will get what it wanted. Hope it works out for the best.

This reminds of the guy that shows up late for moving day... Just in time to enjoy other people's beer...
