    Why do so many non-American countries buy weapons from and train with Americans?

    Are they stupid?

      I’m ex CAF. Sometimes you need a reminder how well trained you are as a fighting force by training next to someone who is inept as fuck. Training next to Americans really reminded us how well trained we were.

      And again, the American military is just money. Buying weapons and munitions is not the same as America deploying their Temu brand of military soldiers.
