    Oh they'd blink. And the stiff upper lip might tremble and convulse in denunciation. But would it give the order to attack US forces? Seems doubtful.


    This assumes that "US Forces" would follow orders to attack/invade a sovereign ally nation on the whims of a dictatorial madman...

    ...

    Fun fact: indie self-dubbed author Rob J. Hayes did with his Mortal Techniques series what M.L. Wang could only dream of in SWORD OF KAIGEN....It just achieves on a much higher level while also leanig HARD into the things that it's homaging and the worlds it's playing around in.

    https://www.amazon.c...s/dp/B09KRWM7D9


    I'm a fan of Hayes. Nice guy too.


    I read NEVER DIE on a whim, and loved it and bought into everything else he wrote.

    Gosh darn it will you lot stop recommending awesome sounding series! 😡


    No. If we have to suffer you have to suffer.


    Same thing happened to me w NEVER DIE.

    Almost backed his recent triple-trilogy GODEATER kickstarter thing, missed the deadline by accident, will likely jump in if it's reoffered or pick up the whole thing when it's done.


    I backed it. I haven't read any of it yet as I'm waiting for all of it, but I was happy to support him in his endeavour.

    The oil situation in the US is pretty crazy...

    Could Trump not make a deal with Putin?... And stockpile oil ahead of time.


    So it's a bit insider baseball, but the Crude oil we supply is much easier to transport to the refineries in the US, and is of a different type than the Ural Crude oil Russia exports. But they are not different enough to make the call...but the US imports over 50% of their oil from us, and only 8% from the Russians....and I would put good money on the main reason (other than our allyship as nations) in transport, as well as the fact that for YEARS now Russia has avoided the Oil Cap the G7 nations have on crude by using a fleet of covert ships to stealthily export more than that cap allows.

    The US already has strategic oil reserves.


    I mean every G7 nation does, usually about a 90-day supply overlap in case of emergencies.

    The UK would certainly complain if the United States invaded Canada, but I doubt they'd directly attack US forces.


    Again, you're suggesting that the US would invade and conquer sovereign nation and no one would blink? That's kinda mental man...

    Where are you getting the idea that the United States relies heavily on Canadian freshwater?


    I didn't. I said our freshwater was an export we have much more of than you do per capita and at some point will be as valuable as oil. Canada has 7% of the entire worlds renewable freshwater, and are right behind then USA in cubic kilometres of it...and yet we have a fraction of the population the US does. The math maths itself. It's a future problem, not a current one.
