Or some scheming vice admiral with designs on world domination keeps claiming that fighter jets are falling off his aircraft carriers, to cover up the fact he's secretly smuggling them to the subterranean hangar under his island volcano lair...

Is there a giant cat involved?

The tying-the-planes-down intern is having a bad week.

Something's off. They could be trying to hide the fact they got downed by the enemy.

Great news. More please more losses to the imperial army of the usa

It is not going to hurt our military. They will cut funding to everything else to cover the loss and replace it.

“$50M to replace your lost plane? Well just cut $100M from children wellness initiatives. Now you can have $150M and buy three replacements!”

Right after Russia is defeated in Ukraine?

[–] small44@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

How about at the same time?

Well kinda hard to stop gearing up when your geopolitical advertiseries are gearing up tbh

Time to reduce the empire was when USSR fell but boomers squandered that and then got into wars which resulted in US losing hegemony. So I really don't see how US will be reducing military under current conditions.

Gonna be another reshuffle war.

With that being said, US wastes resources on helping do the genocide so clearly these clowns ain't only thinking about US geological position.

The aircraft was used to attack Yemen not russia.

The usa is responsible of many coups and destruction of a lot of countries that did nothing to the USA. Fighting russia is not part of the usa imperialism.

Chasing brown people is what US does for sport.

Their actual geopolitical doctrine is to contain Russia which they failed on and China which will test the US here soon.

Whatever you call "Imperialism" is just side projects of special interest groups... For yeman that's Israel and KSA.
