    This motherfucker didn’t even give NATO allies an FYI before his war of aggression against Iran 

  2. 1. Summary

    The international response to Trump’s call for the dispatch of warships has so far proved vague and reluctant, with countries unwilling to commit to a military response that could prove treacherous for their navies.

    Japan claimed “high bar” must be cleared to send SDF, Korea said “more communication & reviews” are needed before making any decision.

    (1) Iran War escalation: Trump’s withdrawal of US military assets from Asia-pacific region made Asia-pacific Allie’s reluctant to commit troops to Hormuz.

  3. Having an international policy of basically “fuck you, we do what we want” isn’t winning allies? Huh.

    Step one piss off allies by being a dick.

    Step two ask for allies help when you fucked up so bad your domestic base of support is at risk of cracking apart and your opponents who said allies prefer will gain significant power

    Step three?????

    I said previously that someone might be desperate enough to send in warships for escort. But that action is stupidity in the highest order. Literally dying for someone else’s mistake.
