Frick the UK. Let's just take Diego Garcia, and while we are at it, take the Falklands and give it to Argentina to solidify that friendship.

Churchill was a drunkard and a moron. He made horrible decisions and that is a fact. He was simply the face of the war profiteers.

Surely you have a newsletter to which I might subscribe to get more in depth analysis of 20th century geopolitics.

Going to be interesting watching European countries’ reactions when the first major US base closure happens.

US troops stationed at those bases pump a lot of money into the local economies….without being a drain on the host country’s social programs since the US military covers costs tor their healthcare and other benefits.

Cool. Hopefully we ignore them in the near future when their Arab population declares war on the natives.

Yeah you are right. Neville Chamberlain would have been a lot better choice as PM during WW2.

I don't think it will come to this, but yes, anytime we hint that we might close a base the locals throw a fit.

Those bases had a real purpose prior to 1989. I'm just not sure that is true any longer.

Maybe this Iran stuff was good for us. Imagine how much the US gov’t would save on leaving NATO and shutting down dozens of military bases across Europe. Honestly, I was pro Ukrainian, but defund that too.

Maybe we could lower our federal tax rate a few % and get out of this deficit in a year.

If you work in Europe, your paycheck shows how taxes are being allocated. Imagine the US doing that—we’d raise pitch forks immediately. Europe can take care of themselves.

Good. Maybe this will force Trump to pull out of NATO. And we need to pull out of the UN while we're at it.
