@etank, I was based in the Balkans in 1994, so I know what it is to serve.
Where I am now it it mandatory to serve from 18 until 35 for all men.
Having said that, I am extremely anti-war, but agree that one should defend their homeland, as much as physically possible.
What I do not agree with is invading other countries in order to 'defend' your country 10k kms away. For no reason other than someone said something that was not true.
Anyway, hopefully Big Z will find better allies in Europe, UK with Starmer has this one chance to assist by ramping up military spending and defence, but not put British boots on the ground.
The US has form for destabilising regions for their own financial gain.
That said, this could help the sp for RR, although I would rather the sp grew for engines and SMR than weapons, just my view.
