"Denmark to buy more F-35 jets, ships in $13.7 billion spending plan"
"The U.S. Air Force Just Admitted The F-35 Stealth Fighter Has Failed"
Remember when EU agreed to buy all that US military hardware when Trump asked
German leadership already stated they will be cutting back social programs, and soon the EU leaders will say the same thing
& this capitulation will inevitably empower the far-right throughout the EU
Anyone ever get evidence of actual Russian drones in the recent panic?

@ekis Idk, how is the question of drones connected to buying faulty military hardware?
As long as russia is known to start wars when expecting to get away with it (big yes), there is a risk. (there are many more risks, coming from inside the house) But buying faulty military hardware is not actually adressing that, so it's unconnected in my mind.
I'd say what we do (i am in europe, but i mean most countries, connected to unregulated capitalism) is unsustainable, shifting around faulty products is one aspect of that. Many, many faulty products, not only military hardware. That is one problem.
This problem then gets (on purpose, i assume) mistakenly connected to the external risk of another country/entity that also would start wars, just like europe/us.
I call that misdirection. Cutting back on social problems is not a result of a russian threat, it's an internal problem. The social programs value, even if there was no net loss effect from cutting them, could not buy functional military hardware anyway.
