Farage -

In the interest of balance, NF has finally spoken up about Trump’s comments.

Quote:
In a tweet he said: 'Donald Trump is wrong. For 20 years our armed forces fought bravely alongside America's in Afghanistan.'

And he liked to a clip of himself speaking at the World Economic Forum in which he said he would object 'politely', to what Trump said.

'When the decision was made to go into Afghanistan we went in with America and a coalition of the willing,' he said.

'We stayed by America for the whole 20 years, we proportionately spent the same money as America, we lost the same number of lives as America, pro-rata, and the same applies to Denmark and other countries too, so it is not quite fair.'
"not quite fair"…

Yes it is a low blow, maybe, just maybe, you are prepared to start to re-evaluate your opinion on Trump. He lies, he outright lies, anything to boost his own distorted view of reality for short-term gains.

Friendly fire, depends. If it’s American shooting down an allied aircraft, dropping cluster munitions on allied troops, well just one of those unfortunate things that can happen in war (sort of true), obviously the fault of the allied forces for being in the wrong place (really not true).

An ally shooting down an American aircraft by mistake - WAR CRIME.

Re: President Trump 2.0

My opinion remains the same. His self inflicted wounds are much better than Kamala Harris warmongering. I shudder to think the state this world would have been in under her.

Re: President Trump 2.0

Seems our PM gave a public rebuke, calling the remarks "insulting and frankly appalling".

I know…

She might have bombed Syria, Somalia, Iraq, Yemen, Iran, Venezuela (whilst kidnapping the Head of State), Nigeria, and threatened to invade Greenland and to annex Canada…

Phew, lucky escape!

Your knowledge knows no bounds. Have those strikes led to war?

Kamala Harris would have warmonger Israel. That would have been a disaster fighting on all fronts. Venezuela would have had to use greater democracy to stop drug trafficking. Absolute chaos. The others fair enough the use of wartime tactics knows no bounds.
