You could be right. I dont have any logical reason or evidence to suggest there is some global conspiracy, which is why I said it was tinfoil hat time - I just have a feeling. I hope you're right and it is just a coincidence.
But isn't that because one country did it and then others are copying? They're seeing the arguments and the positives and deciding they want that? Like Occam's razor and all but why the assuming it's a big conspiracy and not "Oh cool! That's a good idea" like smoking laws and speed limits.

That wouldn't just be adrenaline. Their nerves were so burned that they wouldn't register the pain. Pain is a good thing, really.

That operation took a very long time to orchestrate.
I was hoping it was just the beginning of many such operations. Hopefully more to come. I guess it's easier said than done. But it was such a great PR move, not to mention the actual results. One of those types of operations every month would really be great.

Funnily enough when part of why Argentina was so wealthy is because of foreign investment from the UK and 90%~ of trade was UK merchant marines. River Plate Beef was very popular.
Argentina could barely afford the invasion in 1982, and their economy is an even more precarious situation today. *Malvinas Argentinas* is just a national fever dream, basically a boogieman they use to justify their collapse from one of the wealthiest countries in the world to one who's economy collapses ever 15 to 20...

NATO is also not there just for Russia to despise. The 9/11 attacks showed that, as it was the first and so far only time a NATO country invoked critical 5 of the agreement. Besides, the USSR is long gone. It will be a great day once PUTIN is gone, be it power or well dead.
You also forgot that is categorically why Ukraine is barred from entering nato… because Russia does not want a nuclear enemy next door that is not the USA/(Already included Nato).

Epstein was the Russian asset, not Trump? How did he and Melania meet?
Given what we're getting from the Epstein case, it's very likely repeated sexual abuse on minors (rape and more). Trump has expressed explicit sexual attractions towards minors for decades, in interviews, on camera and in his own books.

Because everyone recognises that Trump doesn’t believe in a rules-based system but a power-based system, and the unfortunate fact is that the US could probably take Greenland whenever they want and there’s nothing anyone can do to physically stop that.

A ship like this can just sail into a relative safe zone to release drones. So the drones can get extra leg.
How is this going to work? In an actual conventional war these ships are just going to get bombed from thousands of miles away. No more drones.

Argentina settled them during the early 1830s and were attacked twice, first by the USA and then by the UK. The redditor you're answering to is balantly lying about events.
Spain had people living there on a seasonal basis. When Argentina became independent they became a part of Argentina, then Argentina abandoned it about 15 years later, then Britain reclaimed it under their original claim.

What does any of that have to do with Trump though? None of those things you listed started under Trump's administration. So what *has* Trump actually done to hem in China?
What are you talking about? Japan has the most F-35s after the US. They build the F-16 under license, they buy most of our weaponry and have 120 American military bases in Japan with 53,500 US soldiers stationed there. It’s ok to say President Trump.

Yes, and that's 10-12 dudes from 5 different countries on the boat who are probably armed would need to be physically restrained or killed in order to capture the boat. Capturing a boat while it's moving while its crew doesn't want you there isn't an easy matter or one without risks.

You have no idea what you're talking about of what kind of unprincipled, undemocratic would-be tyrant Mossadegh was. No one in Iran has a favorable view of him. He's a meme popularized by western leftists as a prop to make statement about "US imperialism" without knowing the first thing about Mossadegh who was a proto...

You know exactly what I mean when I say China. You’re being willfully pedantic to support an authoritarian regime, one that will over hold dominion over Taiwan
I'm pointing out the fact that Taiwan is constitutionally named the Republic of China, nothing else. It literally is the OG China. You got butthurt over that fact. Taiwan's national airline is called China Airlines. Their military emblem has mainland China with Mongolia included. https://navy.mnd.gov.tw/en/aboutus/Pa...

The War started on September 1st with Nazi Germany's invasion. So, let's be accurate here.  The Soviet Union joined in on September 17th AFTER the war had started.  Since you're trying to correlate USSR's European Actions to their Pacific goals then you should be well aware that Japan and USSR had a non-aggression ...
Do you know who also helped start that war on Sept 17th, 1939?

Congratulations, you have one great thing. Low price to send papers which you never want to do anyway. Good you can laugh your ass off to that whole suffering a bunch of other problems.
78 cents if your sending from Florida to Alaska or something far. Only cost is pen paper and a stamp lmfao. What’s up with the European countries having private mail? We do too but we still have usps as well. Genuinely makes no sense to me.

Yes, and that's 10-12 dudes from 5 different countries on the boat who are probably armed would need to be physically restrained or killed in order to capture the boat. Capturing a boat while it's moving while its crew doesn't want you there isn't an easy matter or one without risks.

They're not "occupying" the land - Japan renounced their claims in 1951.  Everything else in your argument is thus invalid. 
Because when a neighbouring nation is occupying your land, and the same nation has recently invaded another nation to occupy even more land, you should probably start worrying about that nation a bit more.

It gets worse: In 1951 Haj Ali Ramzara was assassinated by an islamic brotherhood member Khalil Tahmasebi. This led to a cascade of PM appointments and resignations which eventually placed Mossadegh in the PM seat (in his first stint). Mossadegh then pardoned Tahmasebi for his role in the assassination of Prime Ministe...
Mossadegh was elected by parliament in the same way every prime minister was. He then went on to hold a referendum to disband parliament where he got 99.93% of the vote. He was not the paragon of democracy that everyone makes him out to be.

Its illegal without government approval. The 996 schedule isnt worked by everyone in china. To my knowledge its exclusive to tech start ups (AI, software, gaming, etc.). Tech start ups in silicon valley qork similar schedules.
Note that the 996 schedule is illegal according to Chinese labor laws. Imagine if the state just enforced their own laws, you'd have less overworked employees and you'd add more space where some of the millions of unemployed graduates could fit in.

They won't have to invade just convince Trump it would make him look like an Emperor and look strong if he could get the UK to give them over, and job done. Even more points if you offer him an award with a trophy.
Argentina could barely afford the invasion in 1982, and their economy is an even more precarious situation today. *Malvinas Argentinas* is just a national fever dream, basically a boogieman they use to justify their collapse from one of the wealthiest countries in the world to one who's economy collapses ever 15 to 20...

China has been at war with the West for quite a while. They just need to get these nearby before the "bullet-flying" stage. Suez, Panama, Hormuz, etc.
How is this going to work? In an actual conventional war these ships are just going to get bombed from thousands of miles away. No more drones.

People find it hard to accept the nuances, and it is legitimately difficult since.... most of the information on what is going on is hidden. The people involved are potentually lying to each other. The reporting done on these people are framed to drive a narrative, tailored to specific echo chamber. By reporters w...
Reddit is kind of silly on this issue, and I’m not sure why, but it’s really the only corner of the internet that thinks the Steele Dossier was legitimate and believes Trump is a Russian asset. While I do think he is a bit too lenient with Russia in general, he doesn’t do everything Putin wants like many Redditors wou...

Even so, Argentina pretty much doesn’t have a navy anymore compared to the early 80s. One reason being that it’s a common place to start a coup against the government. Argentinas current navy consists of 3 destroyers, 5 corvettes and a couple of patrol vessels. Their sub arm is currently inactive. What are they going ...
They did it last time with a lot of US assistance. Which they may or may not have now.

You don’t think the US military won’t have satellites and other shit completely covering the Asia-Pacific? They’ll 100% know where they’re launched.
They'll be disguised as container cargo ships.

I realized that. I don't quite get why empathetic people make for bad dictators, but historically, dictators who take control of democracies have emotional deficiencies. (Mussolini was kicked out of middle school for repeatedly stabbing other kids with pencils).
Empathic people make terrible dictators

Nah. Russians had their chance to end this war. Hell, they can still end this war. Revolt. Put Putin and Mededev's heads on pikes. Hunt their families too. Russia has the keys to their own shackles. They choose to keep them locked.
I do feel bad for many of the soldiers. We know some are literal criminals without an ounce of remorse but there are probably plenty who also don’t want to be there at all.

The Russians use [barrier troops](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barrier_troops#Russian_Armed_Forces) to shoot anyone that attempts to desert.
serious question: could they not just surrender to the enemy or desert

100% - i think you're on point here
You don't end the war by attacking symbolic targets. You end the war by gaining strategic (long-term) advantages and then enter negotiatons from a position of strength. Typically that means decimating the opponent's means to fight the war (manpower, weapons, economy, etc). The main effects of attacking symbolic targe...

Care to provide a single piece of evidence that the US has backed away from supporting Japan that isn’t something hypothetical you dreamed up? What even is your argument? Should Japan just sit around and wait until American teenagers are forced to die protecting them using materials funded by the American taxpayer? T...
This is what happens when the United States abandons its allies. Countries start rearming. The Japanese aren’t confident the United States will prevent or intervene in a Chinese invasion of Taiwan and Japanese islands that the Chinese dispute.

Obama called Libya the worst mistake of his presidency. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2016/apr/12/barack-obama-says-libya-was-worst-mistake-of-his-presidency
I mean he was extremely supportive of the Arab Spring from the beginning which is why he led the enforcement of the No Fly Zone over Libya when Gaddafi was carpet bombing and slaughtering entire villages left and right. And he provided the air support which ultimately led to the rebels deposing Gaddafi. But then that d...
