Sounds like a good time for Argentina to try and take the Falklands. This time we won't help the UK out, and see how that goes for them.

Given their shift towards sharia law, I’d say it’s a good thing.

The good news is the Muslims won't have reliable military equipment when they finally take complete control


Yeah, but those nuclear warheads could be a problem. Same with France. Like it or not, we kinda have to keep those 2 countries out of Mullah control.

It's sad that these so called "enlightened" Europeans somehow think that war will never be waged on them ever again. If Russian and China teamed up, Europe would be theirs easily if we didn't step in.


Even more sad is that they will be conquered without ever firing a shot, through unsustainable migration.

China and Russia are not their greatest threats.

Leaving NATO would force them to at least start rebuilding. The problem is I am not sure even if we left that they would rebuild.


They couldn't even if they wanted to (which is in serious doubt). They tax their people at an insane level already to lay for their innumerable social programs (including "free" healthcare). They squealed when Trump started demanding 2% GDP for defense (as NATO required) and have little desire to spend more than that as it is.

Most of their ships are poorly maintained and spend most of their days in dry dock.

Only 25 total “fighting ships” most of their 63 ship fleet are patrol ships.

I don’t want the UK strong so long as they’re governed by globalist totalitarians and occupied by Islamic invaders.

Their lack of a navy makes it easier for us to eventually free them from their occupation once we address our domestic issues.

For the $80B we just blew in Iran we probably could’ve accomplished regime change in the UK.

They have more than one destroyer lol


The Royal Navy currently operates six Type 45 destroyers.
The Royal Navy’s destroyer fleet consists entirely of six Type 45 air-defense destroyers, also known as the Daring-class, which replaced the older Type 42 Sheffield-class destroyers.

UP SHIP CREEK Outrage as FIVE of Britain’s six destroyers were in port being repaired as UK base came under attack in Cyprus
