Give me Venezuela and I take Cuba, Colombia and Greenland next. Nothing else I promise, I'm stealing the Nobel peace pride.

A community for your defence shitposting needs
Rules
1. Be nice
Do not make personal attacks against each other, call for violence against anyone, or intentionally antagonize people in the comment sections.
2. Explain incorrect defense articles and takes
If you want to post a non-credible take, it must be from a "credible" source (news article, politician, or military leader) and must have a comment laying out exactly why it's non-credible. Low-hanging fruit such as random Twitter and YouTube comments belong in the Matrix chat.
3. Content must be relevant
Posts must be about military hardware or international security/defense. This is not the page to fawn over Youtube personalities, simp over political leaders, or discuss other areas of international policy.
4. No racism / hatespeech
No slurs. No advocating for the killing of people or insulting them based on physical, religious, or ideological traits.
5. No politics
We don't care if you're Republican, Democrat, Socialist, Stalinist, Baathist, or some other hot mess. Leave it at the door. This applies to comments as well.
6. No seriousposting
We don't want your uncut war footage, fundraisers, credible news articles, or other such things. The world is already serious enough as it is.
7. No classified material
Classified ‘western’ information is off limits regardless of how "open source" and "easy to find" it is.
8. Source artwork
If you use somebody's art in your post or as your post, the OP must provide a direct link to the art's source in the comment section, or a good reason why this was not possible (such as the artist deleting their account). The source should be a place that the artist themselves uploaded the art. A booru is not a source. A watermark is not a source.
9. No low-effort posts
No egregiously low effort posts. E.g. screenshots, recent reposts, simple reaction & template memes, and images with the punchline in the title. Put these in weekly Matrix chat instead.
10. Don't get us banned
No brigading or harassing other communities. Do not post memes with a "haha people that I hate died… haha" punchline or violating the sh.itjust.works rules (below). This includes content illegal in Canada.
11. No misinformation
NCD exists to make fun of misinformation, not to spread it. Make outlandish claims, but if your take doesn’t show signs of satire or exaggeration it will be removed. Misleading content may result in a ban. Regardless of source, don’t post obvious propaganda or fake news. Double-check facts and don't be an idiot.

He literally said poland is next
Give me Greenland and I promise you I won’t attack anyone else. 🫲🍊🫱
Holy botox, Comrade! (Or is it AI?)
Next decade: “Give me Taiwan and I won’t attack anyone else” Also “Give me Gaza and I won’t attack anyone else”.
Give me Greenland and I won't attack anyone else!
or is greenland better? Venezuela or Greenland?
By the time it's Greenland's turn the orange turd forgot all about Venezuela
Give me Greenland and I won’t attack anyone else except Cuba! And Mexico! And Columbia! And Canada! Obviously we're not done with Venezuela yet... then there's always Iran....
Orange Mussolini enters. Gimme the Americas....and Greenland.
Give me Venezuela and I won't attack anyone else.
That’s not fair, he’s promising to attack others.
Give me Greenland and I won't attack anyone else...
Actually with him it's "Give me Greenland and Cuba is next"
It's "I've taken Venezuela, now give me Greenland. And Cuba. And Panama. And Canada. And.,.."
And Mexico ofc.
Yeah, the list goes on and on.
"Today I want Greenland and Venezuela and Cuba and..."
Give me Worker Rights and I won't attack anyone
Give me Palestine and I’ll stop attacking everyone else…
Except Jordan, Syria, Lebanon, Iran...
Make New Zealand take Tasmania and I won't attack anyone else
Give me russia, and i promise, it wont attack anyone else.
Nobody wants Russia
You're aware that Russia stands no chance against Europe?
That's why there is considerable effort being poured into sowing dissent within the EU and in the end splitting it up into smaller parts that can be handled one by one instead of all at once.
3 things
-
Without the US, Europe has significant capability holes(satellite, logistics, ground launched missiles, nukes)
-
Multiple smaller armies might be, in theory, an order of magnitude "stronger" than the Russian military but because of inefficiencies, overlap capabilities and lack of unified command structure and organizing, they are effectively a circus that cant do much.
-
Not all Europe will react the same and with the same urgency. A crisis(like russian soldiers occupying a small Baltic town) by definition will create huge cracks within Europe.
between the UK and France, and then Germany, Italy, Poland, Romania, Sweden, Switzerland, Ukraine point 1 is fairly well covered. Of course the US has more, but it's not a total wipeout without them.
Nukes is the least important part but even for nukes, numbers matter. It allows you to hit more targets with higher confidence that they wont be intercepted.
This is why China has gone into overdrive and pumping nukes like crazy, in order to reach relative equilibrium with the US and Russia.
Anyway, the amount of air refueling assets and flying radars Europe has are way fewer than needed because it was assumed that the US would be fighting alongside us. Same story with many other things.
Also because life is better in Europe, it is assumed there will be a lower political desire for casualties. Meanwhile for Russia, and especially rural Russia, going to war and even dying might be preferable for many people.
No he has a point. Espescially regarding satellite tech, the EU is woefully underequipped. Positioning systems is one thing, comms the next and in this case since you need quantity for 24/7 coverage, having more is definetly decisive
Please bro, one more oblast please.
Time is going but the history repeats itself...
History repeating.
History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes -- Not Mark Twain
Give me Bhutan and I won’t attack anyone else!
