The totally not an Epstein distraction war is not going to end because most of NATO tells the US to stop bombing children’s schools.

If it's military assistance, fuck that and I'll be speaking up.

If it's defensive of our NATO allies only (excluding the USA and Turkey), as in money for defense, sending defensive weapons, etc, then go nuts, that's what NATO is for.

I think the second is what they had in mind. It's kind of the same thing France and some other countries released the other day. We won't help Trump, but we'll help secure our assets and allies.

Everyone is suffering because of US & Israeli actions, but none of these leaders will even blame and condemn the US and Israel for doing this or take any action against them.

I'd much prefer seeing Trump loose face. Even if that's more expensive for me.
