Our time is a stark reminder, Europe needs to become independent.
While the US is preoccupied with its election, the Ukraine Rammstein meeting has been postponed, Israel is left to the whims of its own dysfunctional leadership, and Russia is importing North Korean soldiers without consequence.
And most European politicians are just silently looking across the pond, devoutly waiting for Uncle Sam to come back to lead European security after the election.
It is as unsafe as it is embarrassing.

@beingreal @randahl solid points. During wartime we need to learn to crawl.

Trump has said he will withdraw the US from NATO.
I'm pro EU - but militarily it scares the crap out of me.
It has become very successful during a long period of peace.
But you cannot have 27 nations all defending themselves with no central control. It's a recipe for disaster. As an economic union it could not efficiently defend itself if attacked. Some go and some wait is a risk.
The EU has wealth but is run by accountants. It needs fully equipped centralised forces. Now.

Thank fuck for America. Seriously. Europe was sleeping. Wake the fuck up Europe. Putin doesn’t give a shit if you hate war and violence. In fact it gives him an advantage.
If you want peace, you must be ready for war. If they have superior numbers, you need superior violence.
#Ukraine can save us, you just need to back them right now.
