A warm water port is a port that doesn't ice over in winter.

Literally everyone but Russia has one, that's why they start screeching and invading people because they just can't fundamentally accept that they're a joke of a naval power and always will be.

I've been trying to convince China: vladivostok (before 1900: Yongmingcheng) was taken from them. take it back. Russia won't be able to fight it.

just take it back. there's lots of resources up that way too; much more than you could ever get by starting ww3 over taiwan. SK, JP, fuck every pacific nation aside from NK will support Taiwan. Why fight the hard fight? Just.... go north and get some. No one will complain. The UN will not censure anyone for fucking with Russia.

They have a warm water port. They were given one and even now they have unfitted access to it.

Since when does Texas have its own military?

[–] Rampsquatch@sh.itjust.works 1 points 2 years ago

It doesn't, but that won't stop them good ol' boys from saying whatever the hell they like.

  1. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Texas_State_Guard

The Texas State Guard is a state level military org they place equal to the Texas Army National Guard and the Texas Air National guard. It has a tiny footprint and theoretically should only be civil affairs and disaster reliefs, but I wouldn't doubt for a moment that Greg Abbot wants to put 'em in jackboots and have them drive tanks up and down the rio grand.

update: https://www.fox4news.com/news/texas-military-base-southern-border.amp

abbot establishes a base for the TXSG at Eagle Pass. mother fuck

Everything’s bigger in texas… including their warm water ports.

after being gored out by repeated hurricanes you'd be a bit loose in the ports too.
