Where the money dey?
besides finance
no one has an outstanding military over there
not even a north korea that redirects most of its earnings to be a formidable military power
every alliance needs a fulcrum and there just isn't any in latin america
brazil could have been the one, but they've never been concerned about invasions in the modern era
so their military is lacking in many regards
brazil just launched its first cruise missile of a meager 300km last two months
the houthis have longer range missiles

secondly, the polity in south america is very volatile
if bolsonaro was president right now, he'd be like milei cheering the kidnap
and if milei is bundled out for a leftist, argentina's foreign policy will fundamentally shift within hours
case in point, look how brazil took an egg to their face after they pushed for argentina's brics membership
hard to build a reliable, permanent alliance when an election would affect readiness

for instance, even this colombia where petro has decided to be a thorn in washington's side
petro is a leftist and will get along fine with the democrats
he wouldn't consider himself part of the axis and colombia has historically been one of america's more dependable ally in the region
but that's just how it goes in latin america

that said, there is both a sense of let's wait until this time next year when trump is a lame duck president
and the "what if this is just how washington will be going forward, biden did continue a lot of trump 1.0 policies"
in that case a natural alliance will emerge
it'll be pushed by the sub-national powers like the cartels and specific interest groups
and the objective would be to adopt a porcupine defensive architecture
essentially make any adventurism catastrophically painful for the us

Seven Iranian Kurdish opposition parties have issued a joint call for a general strike on Thursday, in support of nationwide protests and in condemnation of what they described as the “crimes of the regime in Kermanshah, Ilam and Lorestan.”

They said they strongly condemned the crackdown on demonstrations and the detention of protesters, describing it as a "long-standing policy of the Islamic Republic regime."

They called on all political parties and civil organizations to “take a united and collective stance against the crimes of the Islamic Republic regime and join this call.”

The statement was signed by The Kurdistan Democratic Party of Iran; Komala Party of Iranian Kurdistan; Kurdistan Free Life Party (PJAK); Komala, Kurdistan Organization of the Communist Party of Iran; Revolutionary Komala of Toilers of Iranian Kurdistan (Komala); and the Kurdistan Organization of Khabat.

Ukraine must make sure that its young men can find decent jobs in their own country rather than traveling to Germany, Poland, or France.

One thing I like about Trump is that he doesn't hold back when exposing the foolishness of US supporters. I thought it was about WMDs and 'Saddam bad'
Does that statement not suggest that you have been parrotting propaganda all along screaming US went to steal oil in Iraq?
If they didn't keep the oil according to Trump and it wasn't about Saddam and WMD according to you, what was it about?

The British saw you and invented the word "confusion."

⚡U.S. President Donald J. Trump and his team are discussing a range of options - including potential military force - to acquire Greenland, clearly stating that the territory is a “National Security Priority” of the United States, the White House said in a statement to Reuters.

⚡Trump to MS NOW:

The difference between Iraq and this is that Bush didn't keep the oil. We're going to keep the oil.
Keep the oil how now? Is it remote control you are going to be using from America to keep the oil?What kind of delusion is this?

⚡Trump on Venezuela:

It was so complex, 152 airplanes, many many talk about boots on the ground, we had a lot of boots on the ground.
That carcass is not ideal for a state capital at all. It's like Lagos surrounded by oceans, it can easily be taking by foreign power. They should move their capital to the centre of Venezuela.

2026 will be a year full of drama. If US takes Green land by force, how is NATO going to defend Green against US. The US is the back bone of NATO.
An attack on one is an attack on all, but an attack by one is an attack on........ (No body knows). They will need to start reviewing their rules.
NATO member can not fight the US

Yes, the same military supplies that Pakistan got from China that they used to shoot down India's western supplied Jets. the same military supplies Russian is using to defend their country against western supplied weapons. The same Iran military supplies that has kept Israel, US and her allies in the edge.
You asked a question if Israel operated in Iranian airspace.. saying most airstrikes were conducted in Iraqi airspace
the dude has answered you..and this is the best response you can give??


The bottom line is Russia weapons failed in Syria, and Venezuela, Iranian weapons failed in Gaza and labenon..
