Russia should deploy some of the warships to the Uk’s coastline.

Gif of total loss nuclear was.....

Not worth saving Taiwan, Ukraine or Biden’s political rear end.

Stay out of this. Hint: Vietnam War, Afghanistan....

I still have a shudder go through me when I turn up a certain brand of cashews and it says from blah blah and Vietnam. And a Wal-Mart shirt I looked at said Made in Vietnam. I thought McCain and his business pals smiling and embracing the Communist Vietnam business leaders a few years ago. After so many died or were maimed for nothing. Old men sent young men out to die and made money off the wars.

ready to deploy at Ukraine border

Which border? Their western border with Poland, Slovakia, Hungary, Romania and Moldova? Their eastern border with Russia? The eastern border with the Donetsk and Lugansk separatist regions, either at the claimed or the de facto borders? How about the Crimea?

We can't (or won't) even control our own border with Mexico. How can we control the Ukranian-Russian border? And the British special forces would be better used defending their own Channel coast.

If Russia feels a need to go in (unlikely), this is a suicide mission, for these men & potentially the fools that sent them.

400 to 600 hundred troops?

That’s only about half a battalion.

What do think think they’re going to accomplish?

......Reads....”ready to deploy” to the Ukranian border at a moment’s notice....

I’ll believe they actually deploy when I see it.

Taiwan makes 50% of the Chips we use in our cars. Ukraine makes nothing any American would buy in 2021.

China is a pretty soft target. All Brandon would have to say to Xi is “you invade Taiwan, and we will bounce a Hypersonic Missile off the 3 Gorges dam”

Invasion canceled.

Churchill often mentioned that “shipping” was his number one problem in WW2.

One of Eisenhower's strong suits was Logistics.

It paid off, and Ike built the Freeways because of what he learned.

“ Between 400 and 600 troops are ready”

The only thing that will deter is Milley’s queers and trannys 🤪

No... Those were the Royal Marines, Britain’s equivalent of our Marine Corps.

According to the article, the units they’re sending are Special Boat Squadron and Special Air Squadron troops, IOW special forces comparable to the Navy SEALs or US Army Rangers.

Badasses all.

Hundreds of UK Troops on the Ukraine border are nothing but speed bumps for the Russian hoard.

They should be defending against invaders from France before lending support to a foreign nation.

The ragheads LOVE to get white men into legal/political jambs !
