  1. I like how the US used to (still supposedly does) have detailed invasion plans for every major nation on the planet including allies, and yet somehow we went into this with no plan whatsoever.

  2. Step one: Go into a war half-cocked.

    Step two: Oh no, the strait is closed

    Step three: Huge impact on world economy

    Step four: Ask European countries to fix the problem you created without having a clear exit plan.

    I mean, really. Do you expect European countries to go in blindly in support of the US, once again. The last time we did we got slandered by Trump afterwards anyway.

    I thought America didn’t need anybody’s help?

    I suppose we could stay back a bit?

    IIRC, Didn’t Trump just excoriate the Brits a couple of days ago for being late to the party and telling them that we no longer need them? And now he’s got a problem that is too big for the US Navy, and he wants help?

    Shoulda thought of that before you started pissing off every former US ally.

    Hahahah fucking piece of shit. You started this entire thing, deal with it. Ask your buddy Israel to help

    I thought you had the bestest military in the whole wide world. Sincerely, Fuck you, Love Canada.

    Didn’t a week ago, he said that the UKs help was not needed. He literally posted on his crap social media network:

    “The United Kingdom, our once Great Ally, maybe the Greatest of them ​all, is finally giving serious thought to sending two aircraft carriers to the Middle East,” Trump said.

    “That’s OK, Prime Minister Starmer, we don’t need them any longer — But we will remember. We don’t need people that join Wars after ​we’ve already won!”

    Get bent you old senile dehydrated cadaver.

    Hahahaha fucking no chance

    Maybe don’t insult the UK and our troops if you want us to lift a finger for you

    Don’t forget that he no longer considers the EU an ally; T should just get lost

    Allies are more important than you thought, that’s why you don’t belittle them. You’re now learning that the hard way, president idiot.

  11. Perhaps the most infuriating thing about all of this is that his voters will never see or admit what an absolute clown show this is

    Didn’t he insult them 3 days ago, saying he didn’t need them ?

    What did the paedo-in-chief say?

    >US President Donald Trump has told the UK he does not need its aircraft carriers and accused Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer of seeking to “join wars after we’ve already won”, as the US and Israel continue to launch strikes on Iran.

    Well if you’ve already won, why do you need us to help now? Fuck you and the entire US Regime.

    Trump: *starts a war*

    Trump, a week later: Okay, I’m done fighting this war. Somebody else fight it for me. If they lose it’s on them and if they win it’s on me. That’s totally how it works, right?

  15. Trump said very clearly the other day that he doesn’t want the UK’s help.

    And after everything America has done recently like threatening to invade Europe, blowing up a school and suggesting UK troops stayed back when we came to help in one of your other wars, I don’t see why we should help anyway.

    America – you and Israel started this war, you can finish it. Keep us out of it. If you want help, go and ask your new mate Putin.

    He just told Great Britain to fuck off, and now he wants their help?

    What a total loser.

  17. As a Canadian – he can get bent. And I urge the entirety of NATO allies to do the same.

    Americans trying to annex us and then asking us to help them invade another country is absolutely insane.

    American citizens – seriously when the hell are you going to take back your country?

  18. Typically American. They always come begging their allies for help. Then after it’s all done, they leave you to deal with the refugees their bombing caused, and a few years later they will claim that you didn’t help at all, that your soldiers were just staying in the back.

    The UK would be stupid to help the US again.

    By the way: didn’t Trump boast that they didn’t need help from the UK anymore because the war was already won?
