Defence literacy isnβt high, the situation is complex, and Trump has discarded so many norms that itβs easy to believe heβs handed over a US Base to a government friendly to him personally.
But thatβs not the case here.

No. This really isn't as big of a deal as is being made out.
Singapore certainly had fighter aircraft based in the US for training, as (I think) did Taiwan. There are, of course, Cdns all over the US, including large numbers in Colorado.
None are real "bases" in a conventional sense. Same here.
You know, Iβd forgotten Iβd written on Golden Dome. An alternative view to the Manitoba academicβs testimony.

Well, I am unpleasant. You have that right. But I gather by your name here that youβre quite a bit more unpleasant, so you have that going for you at least.
You seem a bit touchy, judging by your vacuous replies.
And the tears. The big, manly tears.

Weβre not going to buy into any of these stupid plans. Itβs too expensive and wonβt work. I keep saying: theyβre going to state that NORAD is our βpartβ of the system and leave it at that.

This person is completely blinded by ideology. Everything is a purity test to them and a person on the centre or a pragmatist is as good as a Nazi.
This charmer limits replies and quote posts.
Alas for them, Iβm not a βboomerβ & know how to screenshot.
The centrist loves to qualify human rights as a purity test, which is why these cockroaches are the equivalent to the Vichy French.

Checked my bio did you?
Iβm so tired of ideological troglodytes on the left and their dimwitted purity tests. Itβs part of the reason the nuts on the right gained so much momentum.
Drop the block now, Iβve said my piece. π
Show me on this doll where the centrist hurt you.

Iβll even give you odds.
Golden Dome aims to prevent missile strikes from space *at their launch points*. Youβre not going to do this without a massive - massive - amount of research and money, if at all.
GBI intercept rate still isnβt above 50% - after years of trying.

So, two days before the Nobel announcement.
Trump lies constantly, so Iβm not sure what to believe here. Phase One of a *ceasefire* - that has yet to begin - is hardly comprehensive peace, no matter what Trump is selling.
Letβs see what it looks like in a week or two.

He can spout off however he wants - until Dear Leader issues his edicts. Until then, who knows what reality is.

I live in BC. The opposition is so great that Smith is hinting she wants Ottawa to just push it though over objections.
So much for βprovincial rightsβ - which apparently only apply to Alberta.
