Sure, but does the rest of the world?

My evaluation is that a small percentage of Americans want a dictatorship, and a large percentage don’t but are not aware that the steps are being taken, because they think that the institutions of their government are immutable.

It also doesn’t matter 'cause they got elected, so they don’t care anymore. They’ll spend the next two years transferring as much power to the Whitehouse as possible, so that it doesn’t even matter in the midterms. The very clearly will try to get a third term movement going. It’s straight out of the Hungarian and Belarussian playbook - it’s not fantasy.

It is also with saying that America will be a different thing on the other end of this. No crumbling empire comes back the same.

Keep in mind that it is not just arms and money, but also Trump will cut off intelligence, and Musk will start pulling Starlink.

Could do that if tanks weren’t rolling across the border, and missiles weren’t raining down. Could avoid the whole thing by just kneeling and kissing the ring, capitulating to economic and cultural domination by a foreign mafia. Could really simplify life by abandoning European identity, self-respect and agency to become a pawn to the East instead of looking to the West for help.

Too bad they are top strong a people for that.

If you are referring to Trump as the pawn, I would like to remind you that this airport in not (yet) in the U.S., and that Pearson has its own ATC. Also, Pearson is one of the worst airports in the modern world.

Actually, I will agree. It does seem wrong to not have Romania involved in particular

Poland is pretty Eastern European, and the Baltics and Romania could be considered represented by NATO.

Does the article say that only these invited, or only these people are attending?

I think that a Poland attack is pretty far away. Poland has a pretty big armed service.

Next is more likely to be the Baltics if Putin is feeling brave, or back south to Georgia if Putin is nervous about the Scandinavian/Baltic alliance.

Probably also need to reinforce transit out of Halifax to ha dle more cargo transit.

To create a culture of blaming the victim.

Outside of NA there are.
