Comment on The Iran War Is a Whole New Level of Quagmire for the USparent

Comments

Europe explicitly does not provide security guarantees to Taiwan. A large majority of Europeans would not support an intervention. Seen from here sure it would be a loss for Democracy, but there are bigger problems today like climate change and global stability. War for and democracy at all costs narratives doesn’t work like in the US.

Yeah it is obviously mainly a problem for the countries in the eastern hemisphere.

But I expect Europe would help economically and Ukraine (the new military superpower in Europe) would help with planning and strategy and software Just like Japan, south Korea, Australia and New Zealand send support to the war against the muscovites.

I think that war for democacy first need to happen at home. Europe is at risk, altrough holding up much better them USA did.

US does not war for democracy anyway. It wars for own interests using democracy as a fig leaf or even intentionally destroying it.

It did defended democracy after WWII, really. It did helped Ukraine, initially. But then took autocrats sides and in between did quite a few definitely-not-pro-democracy wars or coups.
