I knew this war was going to be an even easier win for Yemen than it was for Afghanistan, and Ansar Allah won't need 20 years to defeat the US either. The US is toast.
How the fuck did the US, the core of NATO, fail to get other NATO states that are entirely reliant on the US for defence to... Join a "peacekeeping operation"?
Fuck, they only got Canada to send 3 "officers" for "observation."
This is pathetic.
- Because NATO is a defensive pact, not an empire, and can't just have its troops deployed with the unilateral will of the United States?
  
  The US has received copious support in their prior offensive military actions. The fact that they're not receiving much now is telling.
- it may have something to do with supporting genocide.
  Pretty sure that those nations support free trade and rule of law, but it's all about optics. They don't want to throw their lot in with the US and take the PR hit with their voters
- The US empire is in retreat, most people in the West and specially in the US still can't see it.
