    You can have the strongest military in the world, but when the people making the decisions are fucking stupid it doesn’t matter.

      Yeah, also it’s not hard to see through…

      “sir if we send our ships there our defense systems won’t be able to ensure all drones will be blocked and we risk our ships being damaged or sunk, which would look really bad for us”

      “tell other countries to send theirs, we don’t care about them”
