Just another global empire, really, and don't forget the rest of NATO (obligatory fuck Russia).
USA threaten to attack Iran.
Rest of NATO: Don't do it!
USA and Israel attack Iran.
Rest of NATO: Nah bro, this one goes too far.
This guy: NATO is a terrorist organization!
Huh?
I didn't say "terrorist organization" (mostly because I think the label is meaningless), but you're ignoring that NATO (and related organizations) cooperation in the form of diplomatic, trade and military isolation of Iran and support for Israel was necessary for the current situation to even develop. Breaking a guy's legs so someone else can shoot them dead does make one accomplice to murder. NATO countries are also 100% going to fully (or nearly fully) cooperate with the US and Israel in the follow-up to the war proper.
Yeah, sadly I have to agree on this. The fact that we still try this shit after it worked so flawlessly (hard /s) for Cuba is incomprehensible.
Then again, I had the feeling we were making progress with Iran until Trump d had his tantrums. Same for Cuba honestly. That asshole would torpedo himself if it would harm one of the others as well.
First, good job to the UK for being even worse US cocksuckers than I expected.
I mean yeah, but that's the thing: Progress only happened with Obama in charge and was rolled back when Trump was in charge. At this point the question becomes: What about US allies? Why can't countries like France, Britain, Germany or Japan make this same progress without the US? Why does the president of one country have this much power over its dozens of allies? The answer to these questions is why I called NATO a part of America's empire.
