The Belgians asking for help dealing with a few drones is a piss take . Should tell them to actually start spending some dosh on protecting themselves instead of relying on others - same goes for Holland Spain and Portugal
Hmmm....let's not be so hasty, we like to help our friends....how many migrants can they take in return?
I had to google it, it appears Belgium called our defence secretary or whoever and requested help with rogue drones in their airspace. It appears we have offered support probably as part of the Nato alliance.
1,000 migrants for every drone we take out, we'll get @Sucky over there flying a few drones in to get the numbers up.
Have to love the media headlines sometimes... Russian forces roll 'Mad Max'-style into battered Ukrainian city of Pokrovsk, video shows https://www.reuters.com/world/europ...y-kupiansk-russian-commander-says-2025-11-11/ please log in to view this image
Russian army is supposed to be one of the best funded on planet earth driving round in vehicles Indians wouldn't be caught dead in ffs.
Sudanese civil war is a full blown genocide at this point, but white left wing middle class people couldn't give a **** about it so I decided to look it up and see wtf is going on over there. Boils down to a proxy war between the UAE and Saudi Arabia (lol what a surprise) with the Wests involvement essentially being that we arm both of those countries so it's really Western arms being shipped there. China has oil interests in Sudan and seems to have the POV of "who the **** cares if those brown folk all die, just let us suck oil" and haven't yet involved themselves. The UK has previously been accused (credibly) of strong arming European nations to NOT discuss that the UAE have been sending arms into Sudan, the UK apparently views the UAE as a better ally than Saudi Arabia. So, the question which constantly comes up is "why does no nation give a **** about whats happening in Sudan?" I saw a great comment that sums it up: "You know, people are everywhere, we have people, you have people, people aren't worth much. But geopolitical allies? They're worth a lot - so just let them have their silly little fight in the desert and pretend it isn't happening."
Bro I've been posting on the Sudan war for a long time, no one is interested though so unlike @Sucky I gave up.
It's genuinely just not fashionable. I have actually seen some online leftists accuse people who talk about Sudan of being Zionists.
Main reason I sort of got into it was because the journalist on sky is Sudanese, so she would go and visit where she lived and tell you what had happened to the people of the area - she was the journalist whose cameraman got beat up out there. In short they think nowt of chopping you up into little bits out there.
