France sending bigger fleet than Britain's to Persian Gulf

Seems the French might have a spine after all. Marcon is sending a fleet of 8 frigates, two helicopter carriers, and their nuclear-powered aircraft carrier the Charles de Gaulle, to the Persian Gulf to help keep the Strait of Hormuz open.



That's more than double the escorts and 100% more carriers than the RN can currently muster to send. Seems Britannia no longer rules the waves...

Who cares? Putin will just help Iran target them like he is now. Holy shit trump and his thugs have fucked us with this Iran boondoggle.

Oil prices are spiking - jobs are bleeding.

trump continues to be Putin's useful idiot and Republicans continue to squander economic gifts handed them by Democrats.

See! This is what I mean by there are those in the US rooting for America to lose and Iran to win.

That's because we have a Lefty government packed to the gunnels with far left scum. They will be gone soon.
 
The French helicopter carriers have up to 16 copters each and an assault force of 460 to 700 soldiers. The Charles de Gaulle carrier carries 28 to 40 aircraft.

This group may be looking to kill remaining Iranian naval units and to give air cover to the Charles de Gaulle.

I know this may come as a great disappointment to you but oil prices are on the way back down. They spiked at $120 now they are $87 and falling. The Dow is climbing.

Your a idiot:

Bing: oil prices are falling today, but only after a very sharp spike, so the market is extremely volatile.

"Win"? Win what? We've carpet bombed the shit out of them. We're doing the bidding of Israel, the Saudis and the UAE. All of them have been doing deals with trump, Kushner, and trump's sons. Now we're bombing Iran which is the Saudi's, UAE, and Israel's wet dream.

You're so infected with hatred for me and anything Democrat you can't even think, trumptard.

It isn't per se Starmer. Britain has suffered from heavy doses of socialism returning since Thacher did away with much of it back in the 80's. The result is that the UK is drowning in a sea of debt and, as always with the Left in the Western world they went looking for more cash wherever they could find it. Defense is one of those things they cut beyond the bone.

Between peace and the Left in the UK seeing the US being their protector, they looted defense to temporarily prop up things like the NHS. Now the chickens are coming home to roost. The UK can't project power anywhere today. The Royal Navy is welded to a pier with ships that don't work and ships that there's no money to fix or even fully man. The army and RAF have been reduced to near nothing.

If Argentina tried to take the Falklands today, they'd probably succeed. The UK has nothing to send.

dumbest shit ever.

you look stupid always trying to frame every fact into your world of stupidity.

Right ...because the only way to want America to win is to cheer any unnecessary war they choose to get in to.

You have gone full NeoCon Terry and need to just reply with 'why do you hate the troops' as the NeoCons tried to frame every issue around the endless and unnecessary they pushed and any questioning of those was with met with 'you hate the troops ... you do not support the troops', as if cheerleading unnecessary wars and deaths is the only way to support them.

The recycled NeoCon arguments will not work here Terry. We are all old enough that we have seen them before, for decades.

Terry sees that Trump and the magats have gone full NeoCon and so now he is parroting the generations prior NeoCon arguments.

Everything Terry is pushing now is stuff we heard during the NeoCon era. If you speak against the necessity and reasoning of this way 'you want America to lose', if you condemn the US life loss 'why do you hate the troops'.

Terry WILL NOT question whether this war was necessary, whether the US was manipulated, whether it is another no win middle east quagmire, or that the US has been EXACTLY here prior and what it lead to, with the US controlling ME puppet regimes and controlling decisions on ME oil, was the rise of the terror organizations that saw the US as the great Satan, even as Trump now says 'he wants to choose ME leaders and control the Strait'.

I get that many young people do not know the prior US history in the region and thus cannot see how what Trump is pushing now is just a recycling of the prior NeoCon play book, that lead to 9/11, but i am pretty sure Terry is old enough to see it.

He just can't see it due to TDS but if this was any leader but Trump, he would be all of this as wrong. But since it is Trump he will be all in, all the way thru it.
 


this is a topic change from why Britain isn;t in the war.

and its fucking dumb.

they're on fiat currency too, and would get as much money as they can print to go kill enemies of israel.

this is part of schisming the world.
