actually wild how just 20 years ago literally every one of these countries would have jumped at the chance to do this with Iran, but they're all afraid of being hung out to dry now becuase alphamale chuds don't know how to do empire diplomacy

As my great chancellor said: "They didn't even ask us beforehand and said they would need no help". So now they are miffed. You know, in the old world, we still follow decorum. You ask beforehand or afterwards for clean up but not in the middle of your mess of a job. It's not that they don't want, it just looks too bad.

About 24 years ago most of these countries didn’t follow the US to Iraq either. The big difference is the UK and Australia not going.

Suez crisis for Britain was about UN, US and USSR not approving UK, Israel and France's shenanigans in Egypt and threatened to make shit difficult for them. Brits found this untenable and that made them back off. That was the whole humiliation. UK, the once great empire not being able to act with impunity on the world stage, without asking their allies nicely first, when a third tier country takes it's strategically important shit.

Hormuz is literally US begging for help to win a war that they started, didn't have to start, and now can't win. On the face of it, this is so much worse than Suez.

Do you think Trump regrets his tariff flex now?

[–] Infamousblt@hexbear.net 35 points 18 hours ago (1 children)

I suspect Trump is not capable of regret. Or rational thought.

Neither are his supporters, and the sycophants that surround him

Honestly surprised Canada rejected

The US finally beat on them too much

[–] axont@hexbear.net 17 points 15 hours ago (1 children)

canada has like a dozen combat capable naval vessels and all of them would immediately get blown to pieces if they tried navigating through mines and drones. It's an easy rejection
