I used to daydream about one day maybe work in North America. Today as a grown-up, I so am happy to be in Europe
It’s more like Trump destroyed relationship with allies *in order to* negotiate with war criminals.
That alone is enough for the history book.
At least know we truly know who are our allies and who are f*cking b!tches…
The biggest treason of modern history.
The greatest humiliation to kiss russians boots in modern history.
I don’t know what every single american have to say to the brave heroes of Ukraine, to the countless civil victims of putin’s bombs. To the children, to the wives of the the heroes who defend their FREEDOM.
Americans do not defend Freedom. They sell it for cheap.
What a disgrace.
Also never forget, one part of the war (iraq) was based on a literal conspiracy. A bold faced lie.
I don’t understand how noone is talking about that anymore. Or ever really…
It’s sad to thing that the ‘land of the free’ is supporting oppression now
The worst part is that nobody talks about russian Nürnberg. War criminals, rapists and murderers will be left unscaved.
After few years everyone will trade with russia, forget massacres and help to build more modern tank fleet.
It’s about time the EU stands up and stops being vasal states to the USA. America is a friend to no-one.
American scum
Canada too. We remember and its not ok.
The US is not acting like an ally to Ukraine or us anymore either, and its not ok. I know its not enough but we know.
Trump is destroying 110 years of American diplomacy with Europe, starting with presidents Wilson’s peace plans during WWI, in less than a month.
Over the 20 years that forces were deployed there, 150,610 British service personnel served in Afghanistan. 457 died, over 600 have life changing injuries. £23 billion pounds.
In support of the one time Article 5 was invoked by a NATO member – the USA after 9/11.
As a near 50 year old that grew up during the Cold War and lived in Germany as a child of a service family with the British Forces in the early 80’s it’s mind boggling that we are where we are.
Don’t forget that countries like Ukraine, Georgia, Moldova, Finland, and many others, which were not even part of NATO, lost thousands of soldiers in Afghanistan and Iraq.
This is obviously the biggest treason ever
USA are the worst kind of betrayers, those who were your friends and left you when you needed them most.
The Italian plumbers need to branch out
THIS!! this is the message we should spread. Also we helped the mighty USA deliver “democracy” to other countries and take gold/oil in return.
Always been like that… even in WW2 most of the US was fine with what was happening in Europe. There were many prominent american figures back then, who even sided with the nazis. Only the attack on Pearl Harbor changed that.
Fuck amurica
to be fair, europe does not remember history that well. this exact same thing happened before where the US betrayed its allies which resulted in countless deaths and russian occupation.
Hopefully this time we will remember…
1st rule of geopolitics never trust USA
2nd rule – never forget the 1st rule
Also Europe remember….. every time the US invaded…bombed….coup….wrongfully which has been really nonstop for decades….Europe supported them. its like supporting a pedo then acting shocked when they touch your kid.
Meh.
It’s obvious we’re not speaking of the same America.
I remember those who came fighting Hitler.
But americans now prefer remember those who sided with Hitler and the Reich, before the japanese attacked Pearl Harbor…
I supposed that’s their “great” in MAGA…
I’m sorry, but it’t more like “When USA was attacked by Saudi terrorists, we helped to invade and occupy Iraq and Afghanistan under bullshit pretence, so Bush can raise his ratings, and BP and Shell could get iraqi oli reserves”
What a disgusting insult. Canada stands with all of you. You deserve so much more than this. 🇪🇺
Canada does to
Honestly what this shows is that it was very foolish of us to rely on the US for protection from the get go. It is good to have allies, but to put all your eggs in one basket was pretty foolish and now Europe is facing some difficult decisions because of that. Of course we could not have expected for the US to turn into a turncoat, but we should have considered that over time things always change and they might change for the worse. We just relied too much on the US being the World Police and keeping insane dictators such as Putin at bay. This will work no longer.
Evidently not, the USA has screwed over the UK (despite our ‘special relationship’) over and over and over yet still people act like they are our friends.
The USA has always been self interested, it has never at any point been an unconditional ally and the idea that Trump is something new is ludicrous.
Europe needs to send troops to Ukraine immediately Putins army doesn’t have the strength anymore to take all of us on that’s how peace is achieved in this situation
Yet, not a single US-politician is aware of how much damage is getting done by the pig.
We remember history because in the lifetime of people who are alive now, we lived it.
An entire continent destroyed the last time fascists had a go at taking over.
15 million people killed because of their religious beliefs and social status. Because they were considered unworthy. Killed on an industrial scale.
Many more soldiers and civilians killed during that war, and in the wars that resulted from that war.
An entire continent divided as a result of that war.
The bitter legacy that continues today of all of this.
Many European countries worked with the USA to build a better world. Even when the US’s decisions were, lets say questionable. We recognised the sacrifice made by Americans on our soil, and returned the favour in kind. We considered ourselves partners in ensuring that all of this never happened on European soil again.
It is now happening on European soil again, and the American President is siding with the fascists.
To say its a betrayal is an understatement. We promised ourselves it would not happen again, and because of the actions of an American President, the chances of this happening again jumped.
Look what they are doing to us in Canada. They don’t give a shit about loyalty
Womp womp (Indians)
That’s what happen when you elect an old man who is completely incompetent as president, and even worse, proved it before…
Lmao ww 2 anyone???
Being honest or being silly? Europe has always considered US as an ally, while US has always considered EU as a colony.
Europe remembers history, because their schools most likely taught it accurately.
In Canada 🇨🇦 we trust.
Alliances change all the time. Even from Napoleon, the Austria Hungarians, Britain, Prussia, some Germanic states amd Russia were all against France. Later on the British, Polish, ottomans and France were agaimst Russia in Crimean war… in WW1 Britain, Russia, France, Italy romania were allies against the Germans, austro Hungarians and Turks..
in WW2 the italians and germans were allies against Russia and the others…
Aligning oneself to suit your own goals is normal and nothing unusual..
Never forgive never forget
>When Europe was threatened,
>America sided with the agressor.
Ohhhh how *quickly* we forget 😂😂😂
There is a Croatian song that sings about ”fools dying for ideals”. Not in sense of ideals being worthless or not worth dying for, but in sense that while they monger us to go to wars for noble cause, there is never a noble cause in root of all those wars as we are being presented with. Never. It is always and only interests. Whether those made of utter greed for money or sheer hunger for power, same difference, same madness.
Politicians give weapons to masses, rich folks give food for wars, poor people give their daughters and sons. When wars end, politicians take their weapons back, rich people take their food and poor people search for graves.
seeing a lot of these, also with the stuff happening between the US and Canada. getting down and dirty with the world bully, helping them invade places like Iraq and Afghanistan (for what reason again? achieved anything? find and NW’s? nope, just killed millions of poor people).
it’s just gross to me, europe and canada being like ‘hey remember that time when you went to war with countries you had no business to go to war with, we helped. so can you be nice to us because we helped you commit war crimes. we sent our young men and women to go and die for you for no reason, can you be nice to us, please?’
> Europe remembers history
Doesn’t remember that USA sided against the aggressor everytime in the last 100 years. (In Europe) Sure, fuck trump and this make Russia great again movement but that doesnt make the title or this photo more accurate.
fuck Trump.
Surprise, surprise.
EU was USA’s muppet for decades, fulfilling its interest, and then surprised when discarded for those interests?
Except Trump hates Europe and Nato, it makes perfect sense he doesn’t side with us. Seems like the Americans are gravitating towards a different ally now.
When was usa attacked?
