Well the German Chancellor is a LIAR then as NO EU NATO MEMBER is currently "paying their 5% on defense."

Germany for example is paying 2.8%.
France is for example paying 2%.
Even Poland the...beacon of democracy...is only paying 4.5%.


Yes but most plan to and have budgeted for it. Spain refused to try flat out.

"Spain has been terrible. In fact, I told Scott to cut off all dealings with Spain. Spain actually said that we can't use their bases. And that's all right. We could use their base if we want. We could just fly in and use it. Nobody's going to tell us not to use it."


What the hell is wrong with this guy?


Its a good statement "Trump Is Now Trying To Start A War With Spain." noting the concept "war" can encompass many things, trade war, say like with China, Economic warfare, similar to what happened to Iran back in December, Air war like we see currently in Iran, or Direct war, say Iraq, and ofc total war - WW2 with nukes.

Spain is simply not going to roll over. What Trump would have to do is orchestrate the removal of the leader of spain, and then bribe/pay or whatever you want to call it, people willing to get on board his boat to his magical Island. I think he can apply sufficient pressure to do that. It is likely to cause a rift in Europe until such time as he succeeds (and I think he can credibly succeed, no one in europe likes outliers, say Ireland, Spain, Hungary, They are largely irrelevant).

I think its a great thing, i do not support him shitting on nato members for not giving him free run of their countries.


A fair weather ally is worse than an enemy during times of real conflict. While Spain is arguably a third world shat hole at the moment, they have great geography and have historically acted as block to Muslim encroachment into greater Europe.

Has Spain lost its character? Where is the old Inquisition one drop crowd?

Seriously though, what a flounder of a move by Spain. Just placate with a bit of land and keep head low.

Before the Iraq War, France said the U.S. was making a mistake. Washington mocked them for it — “Freedom Fries,” political attacks, the whole thing. Years later, the weapons of mass destruction case collapsed, and the central justification for the war turned out to be wrong.

For decades, U.S. and Israeli officials have warned that Iran was “weeks away” from a nuclear weapon. Three decades later, that warning is still repeated. From a European perspective, it’s reasonable to question whether this is another case of threat inflation being used to justify military action. Europe is stuck. It relies heavily on the United States for security, but it’s also wary of being drawn into another open-ended conflict. Trust has been strained (Greenland), yet Europe doesn’t have a fully independent military structure to fall back on. That creates hesitation — not betrayal.

If Spain looks at the situation and decides the case for war isn’t convincing, refusing to participate doesn’t make it a “fair-weather ally.” It means it’s making its own judgment call. France was criticized in 2003 and later viewed by many as having been cautious for good reason. Spain is taking a similar position now and I am pretty sure history will look favorably on them.

Spain & Europe could really use Americas help to protect the boarders from North Africa and the Middle East tbh.... and help with the reverse of the invasion.

If the Us would offer this help, and the indigenous people of Europe each country for country, would have a vote on it - i would bet Europe in the majority of countries would vote for it.

We're being invaded & our treason governments too corrupt to do anything about it. just like the open boarders and free welfare for invaders & not even deporting criminals like us had under the biden years - Europe has had for 1-3 (of even to some extent in some places 4+ decades!) all while the globalist media and their plant politicians hides, manipulates & lies about the numbers, the costs, the crime statistics.., country after country, same corruption, same treason, to the point that we now have to have closed boarders from these problematic regions and mass remigration of welfare pillagers, the millions of invaded Muslims/ islamist jihadists & millions of criminals or it will lead to civil wars ..


maybe this is not at all what Trump & the us is on about to use bases in Spain for "if they want", & maybe this is all part of the plan to force us intervention in the european union in order to implement the next steps in the agenda 2030 & the NWO plans and i'm just taking the bait, i just still wanted to say this...

We are de facto no longer allied with Spain.
Doesn't make them our enemies or at war. They are not our allies. The EU is broken and von der Leyen is just denialism incarnate.

Are you going to kick yourselves out of Nato? How does that even work.

On the famous Evil Overlord List -

37. If my trusted lieutenant tells me my Legions of Terror are losing a battle, I will believe him. After all, he's my trusted lieutenant.

On that note, if an Ally says your doing something wrong a bit of introspection should be in order rather then attacking them, they are after all, an Ally. Going around killing millions of people, while it is something the US can do, it would be helpful if there was a good reason to.

also, staying light hearted, for those of you unfamiliar with the list, here it is in all its glory: https://web.mit.edu/jemorris/humor/evil.overlord

Just redact a few hundred years of conquest including recent efforts of Spain to further claim stolen American gold salvage on their sunk ships from the exploited and genocide indigenous.

Sir we are talking about the US today, not Spain 500 years ago. If you want to say that the US is now going around the world like Spain did 500 years ago, and killing and what not, well the obvious answer to that is, the US already killed most of the Indian Tribes 100's of years ago, when are they going to grow out of this?

If your neighbor is a childkiller, you dont have to be one too.

I'm talking about Spain in the last few decades stealing Peruvian and Colombian gold leveraging international institutions they benefit from but have been short changing for decades.


What were the fates of the neutral countries in the last big war?
