In case anyone was wondering why Putin is considering expanding the war into NATO countries. Most Americans air defenses have been shifted to the Middle East and what little Europe does have has mostly been sent to Ukraine.

We had to send them to the Middle East to fight our war and Europe definitely needs to up its production to be able to defend itself. Just pointing out that Putin sees an opening.

Sure they did.

Secret service officials talked to the press about Trumps plane switch in Turkey and that was a much bigger secret.

I saw Lt Col Anthony Aguilar say the other day that Lockheed Martin told the Pentagon the best they can do is to get more mid-grade PAC 3s by August 2028. He said because of that, you can open up Bob’s Missile Shop and put in a bid now.

Perhaps Europe should figure out their own defense systems

I’d assume there are plenty of lefties left in the DOD, state dept and CIA.

Now, whether they are telling the truth is another issue.

As an aside, I had a conversation with an active duty pilot the other day. He said the war with Iran, from his understanding, is going very poorly and confirmed to me his understanding is that we are low on many missile systems AND many of our supporting systems that facilitate missile defense have been destroyed.

It’s common sense that we’re short air defense missiles.

I find this hard to believe that a pilot with actual knowledge of this kind of stuff would just be haphazardly sharing that info. He's either bullshitting and has no such actual knowledge or he's sharing classified info and risking court martial.

But if he is telling the truth, then it shows we were woefully unprepared for any sort of conflict with China if the we let the Iranians deplete our missiles and missle defense stockpiles to that extent.

NATO is a slick rebrand of the Nazis that didn't get hung.

That may be true. But if NATO gets attacked we’re going to war with Russia.
