We were providing you money during that entire period and you still got backed into a corner When the French fell.
Churchill been literally went to Roosevelt and asked for us to help with combat arms and consider troops.

Face it, the Germans have a history of being a decent military adversary.



While it's actually quite astounding how much terror they accomplished, tactics and stiff upper lip would have prevailed. They would never cross the sea as the navy would've defeated them.


D-Day and all that were the Germans on the downside. It was a matter of time until the numbers prevailed.

Still not sure where they got all the troops from. One day a zillion Nazis appear and start invading Poland. That's when the war started btw. Britain said fuck that you bully we'll fight you instead

I doubt in this modern day they could do it again. Same with England, we had the empire and taught the world civilization. There's no fucken way we would be able to conquer all those places again. Shit, in this day and age we let the vote to leave.

Apart from Hong kong. We should've got our dick out against china and said come get it.

I went to the military industrial complex once. I told them to stop funding bogus think tanks to push war propaganda and create conflicts that line their own pockets. Then the receptionist told me that my free drink coupon had expired. Clearly the complex responds to any dissent with swift retaliation in this brave new world.

The weird part was that the military industrial complex looked eerily similar to a Carl's Jr.
Y'all have Carl's Jr?

England didn't conquer, they occupied.

Yes, but they only put them in the glamorous neighbourhoods of Melbourne, like Cranbourne and Thomastown. These are the equivalent of Beverly Hills, so poor people like me don't usually get to go.

I just looked up whether Starbucks do a cream cheese bagels


God I hate that place. Took me about 5 years to figure out what some pretentious cunt who told me they were a barista was. Figured they worked at the courts.

The withdrawal is nothing more than pulling the curtain back on the reality that's been occurring for 20 years.
No Afghan government infrastructure. Afghan government corruption. Afghan military pathetic. Taliban with exact same interest and attacks as anytime before. And following two decades of us telling the locals that we really aren't there to make it a 51st state, we've only worsened our reputation to interaction with the locals.

The withdrawal didn't make any of those conditions happen. Many existed before and many were created over the last two decades by our poor planning. We did not have the political will or planning probably wanted the outcome to be. We'll continue to ebb and flow increase and draw down constantly hoping that just throwing money at supplies at the Afghan government would allow them to stand on their own. It appears that it did nothing more than make them more dependent on us.
In other words...
We are about to see another version of...

There are quite a few parallels. Mission creep, poorly defined end points, various executive branch micromanaging of military doctrine.

We could have pulled out at year 5,10,15,20,30 and it'd be the same result without a different mission.
It’s actually year 5781 rite now did u kno dat?
