What does that mean exactly, has our back? How?

His sword traps the souls of his victims.

[-] ehpolitical@lemmy.ca 1 points 2 days ago

Not a clue what that means. Are you just compressing some chit?

It's the quote from the suicide squad movie about katana.

Oops, sorry, never seen it.

Yeah. The moment American soldiers step foot across the Canadian border what are we going to do? It would already be over. We have no defense against the largest military in the world, and we stand no chance of defending the longest continuous border in the world. We will only be able to fight as an occupied resistance.

So it's just empty blathering then, when this German ambassador says they have our back. Great.

I'm sure they want to mean it. But the reality is that when Russia starts making moves they will be pre-occupied and likely won't be able to help much across the Atlantic

Even if Russia didn't do anything, how the hell is Germany even going to cross the Atlantik without getting blasted into oblivion? If they actually wanted to attack the US they'd have to start with the tens of thousands of US soldiers and secret service agents on their own soil.

I get it. It's just the kind of meaningless babble I'd expect in a social setting, like at a bar or party.

Do they have nukes? We could use some nukes... anyone have nukes?

[-] towelie@lemm.ee 5 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

The only European countries with nukes are the UK and France (225 and 290, respectively). As of January 2024 the world has ~12,121 nukes. America has 5,044 of them

Maybe they can share some with us.

[-] ehpolitical@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 days ago

I think the States have some ๐Ÿคช

Let's not talk about German nukes just at the moment, okay?
