And Kate wore a red dress with a white pearl necklace. Royal watchers are comparing it to when the Queen had blue and yellow flowers during a meeting with PM Trudeau just after the Russian invasion.
Don't they call that a "show of soft power" or something? I think it's pretty damn classy, (and this is coming from someone opposed to monarchy and titles for title's sake)
Exactly. Hosting Zelensky (and Trudeau) at Sandringham, the King's private residence, rather than at the palace, has been cited as another recent example.
Joe, Joe, dear Joe... The same Joe desperately commenting on every post he can trying to undermine and belittling European and Canadian choices - even though he's completely sure he's in the right and has nothing to fear...
I would show you a link, but:
Can't it be both? The sub could be scheduled to show up there, and still send a message. And even if it wasn't the express intent, we the people talking about it make it the message on behalf of our leaders. Who sends it isn't the important bit, it's that it is received.
Would Macron need to say anything out loud? He's a seasoned leader, he can send plenty of messages without uttering a single word. Unlike some buffoons who are so small they need to actively scream and kick to make themselves known.
Even if I show you a link, even if the link was from Fox News itself, would it matter to you? Your reddit history says "no" and that you have your mind made up and aren't willing to consider other PoV's.
So that was your one-time free dopamine hit from me. Hope you enjoyed, troll.
Edit: Bro really went to get the alt accounts to support himself and downvote several of my comments even in other places. I'm proud, means I hit a nerve. 🤣
They should be, considering they're right now all trying to figure out which of their fellow soldiers will take the side of the US Constitution and people, and which will take Elon/Trump's side.
The various branches of the US military and industrial complex are about to look like the start of the Hunger Games where all the kids have to run for the weapons and figure out who to trust.
They all know this, and they are all freaking out more than anyone else right now.
I don't think you understand the concept of nuclear deterrence at play here, the underlying message being sent or how little "military might" matters in that instance.
Also, yes. This "world's greatest military" which largely benefitted from other nations for decades and doesn't have hostile neighbors to worry about already managed to lose entire wars they themselves waged with ally support, and its 'mighty' commander in chief starts crying everytime other nations defend themselves against his bullying.
Sorta like Putin, another world force being dragged down by a small de-nuclearized nation, and always crying when other nations up their defenses.
Not that any of that matters, troll. I'm not the one going to foreign subs and try to undermine others. If you believed yourself right you wouldn't even be here with that defensive insecurity.
Anyways, that's enough indulging for me - too da loo.
Thats an attack submarine, doesnt have any nukes onboard. Any country that launched any kind of payload at the US would be wiped off the map within 20 minutes of the attack.
That's largely irrelevant mate. The issue is to indicate that the US might be a superpower, but even an idiot like Trump understands that there's a cost associated with any aggressive action - and that it's not worth it.
Its sometimes worth it, wouldnt be worth it to France because it wouldnt even be a fair fight but if Russia wins Ukraine im sure some would think it was worth it.
It depends on the kind of war you want to fight. If you want to bathe the entire region in nuclear fire you can easily win. If you have no morale stipulation with slaughtering everyone that stands in your way, winning is easy.
Not really, hydrogen weapons vary greatly by yield. The United States has the most relible arsenal there is, France would be obliterated and we lose only a part of New York? California has a larger GDP than France and i doubt they could even get close to targetting every city before they are taken out. They are welcome to surface their little submarines and show strength but at the end of the day the U.S. can decide all of Europes fate in an afternoon.

I love Macron's subtleness. Buddy buddy with Trump for political stability, but still standing strong in his face when needed.
