So much of our intelligence and military systems are shared or reliant on the US – if it becomes the enemy, it is already inside the gates, says Guardian columnist George Monbiot
The best way to defend a country from the US is to not engage them in traditional warfare but use guerilla tactics until they give in and go home. They’ve lost multiple wars this way.
This is what the US have encouraged Taiwan to do. Taiwan wanted to purchase a few incredibly expensive fighters and ship from the USA, but basically all war simulations just had China target these and secure a fast win. The USA instead encourage Taiwan to take the “porcupine” technique, spreading many small weapons, particularly handheld anti-aircraft type weaponry across the country. The plan is to make invasion too inconvenient. The flip side is that without a reliable way to show a display of strength, anywhere the larger aggressor does pick on (USA to UK China to Taiwan) can focus on one part of the country and reliably cause massive damage there.
Dont they technically own those bases? They ones i remember were very explicitly named RAF (Royal Air Force), don’t know about other US branches presence
Unfortunately even then the M.O. is to flatten half the country, dismantle any existing government, then half-heartedly declare victory before leaving any survivors to clean up the mess.

But also to not have multiple US military bases already on British soil.
I’m not a military person, but I feel that could be seen as tactically unwise…
The chances of a future where the UK and USA go to war where those military bases aren’t long since gone is nearly impossible.
This is what I was saying to someone a couple of weeks ago when Musk was talking about liberating the UK.
They don’t need to invade us, they’re already here.

If they’re full of US military personnel, does it matter who legally owns the land? 😉

Sounds like US domestic policy
Sound like the American War of Independence against The British
Time truly is circular
If they invade the UK we’re just going to throw all their bud light in the sea. See how they like it.
The sea will throw it back
how should i use this info if I’m already in the us
